Connect Your HDMI Devices
If any of your source devices have HDMI connectors, using them will provide the best
possible video and audio performance quality. Since the HDMI cable carries both digital
video and digital audio signals, you do not have to make any additional audio connections
for devices you connect via an HDMI cable.

NOTE: If you have HDMI devices (such as an Internet connection) already connected
directly to your TV, you can feed their sound to the AVR via the HDMI Monitor Out
connector’s Audio Return Channel, and they will not require additional connections to
the AVR.
Connect Your Component Video Devices
If any of your video source devices have component video connectors (and do not have
HDMI connectors), using the component video connectors will provide superior video
performance. You will also need to make an audio connection from the device to the
receiver.

Use the AVR’s analog audio connectors for source devices that don’t have HDMI or digital
audio connectors. NOTE: If you’re installing a multizone system, make analog audio
connections for any source devices you want to be able to listen to in Zone 2. Only analog
sources are available in Zone 2.
