Connecting the AV Receiver—Continued
Hooking Up the Multichannel DVD Input
If your DVD player supports multichannel audio formats such as DVD-Audio or SACD, and it has a multichannel
analog audio output, you can connect it to the AV receiver’s multichannel DVD input.
Use a multichannel analog audio cable, or several normal audio cables, to connect the AV receiver’s DVD FRONT L/R,
CENTER, SURR L/R, SURR BACK L/R, and SUBWOOFER jacks to the 7.1-channel analog audio output on your
DVD player. If your DVD player has a 5.1-channel analog audio output, don’t connect anything to the AV receiver’s
SURR BACK L/R jacks.
To select the multichannel input, see “Using the Multichannel DVD Input” on page 55. To adjust the subwoofer sensi-
tivity for the multichannel input, see “Hardware Setup” on page 108.
Note:
When a signal from multichannel DVD input is output from HDMI OUT or analog audio output, only the front L/R
channels will be output. There will be no down mix.
