Figure 5 – Source Component Connections
Dashed lines (––––) indicate coaxial and optical digital audio connections. Choose either type
(but not both) for each digital audio source.
Dotted lines (••••) indicate component, composite or S-video connections. Component video is
the preferred connection when available, but you may use any of the three types (but not more
than one).When component, composite and S-video sources are connected to the AVR, you must
also connect all outputs from the AVR to your TV.
