Connecting Components
Connecting the A-9377 to your other Onkyo -capa-
ble components with cables allows you to control
them all with the A-9377’s remote controller, like an
integrated system, with the following functionality.
Direct Change
When playback is started on a component connected
with , the A-9377 will automatically select that
component as the input source.
Remote Control
You can control components connected with from
the A-9377’s remote controller. See page 9 for details.
To use all functionality, in addition to an con-
nection, each component must be connected to an
analog audio input on the A-9377.
Notes:
• Push plugs in all the way to make good connections.
• cables are special cables solely for use with
Onkyo products (no cables are supplied with the
A-9377). Use only cables for connections.
• Connect jacks to only -capable Onkyo compo-
nents. Connecting them to other manufacturers’ com-
ponent may cause a malfunction.
• Some -capable Onkyo components may not sup-
port all functionality. Refer to each component’s
instruction manual for full details.
Connecting the Power Cords of Other
Components
The A-9377 has switched AC outlets on its rear panel
that can be used to connect the power cords of other
components that you intend to use with the A-9377.
These components can then be left turned on so that
they turn on and off as and when the A-9377 is turned
on and off.
Use the AC outlets for components that have no Standby
function, such as the Onkyo CD Player. -capable
Onkyo components with a Standby function must be
connected directly to a wall outlet.
Cautions:
• Connect only audio components to the AC OUT-
LETS.
• Make sure the total capacity of the components you
connect to the AC OUTLETS does not exceed the
maximum capacity stated on the A-9377’s rear panel
(TOTAL 100 W).
Connecting the A-9377’s Power Cord
• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your
speakers and audio components.
•Turning on the A-9377 may cause a momentary power
surge, which might interfere with other electrical
equipment on the same circuit. If this is an issue, plug
the A-9377 into a different branch circuit.
For optimum performance, plug the A-9377 into its own
wall outlet. Do not connect it to a wall outlet that’s also
used by a high-power appliance, such as a heater.
