Connecting to the ONKYO Separate Collection Series components
Before connecting
• Do not connect the unit’s AC power cord (mains lead) to a wall outlet (the mains) until you
have completed all the other connections, including and AC OUTLET connections on
page 12 and “Connecting speaker systems” on page 16.
• On each pair of connectors, a red connector (marked R) corresponds to the right channel,
and a white connector (marked L) to the left channel. Connect white plugs of audio con-
nection cables to L connectors and connect red plugs of audio connection cables to R con-
nectors.
• Please refer to the instruction manual for each component when you make any connec-
tions.
• Insert the plug securely. If the connection is incomplete, noise or malfunction may result.
• When you use a digital audio optical cable, do not bend it sharply nor coil it tightly.
• Bundling an audio connection cable with the power cord or speaker cord may degrade the
sound quality.
• Be sure to use the cable, supplied with each component (except for the R-801A) to con-
nect to the remote control connector. If the connection is incomplete, you will be
unable to operate the device using the remote controller.
• CD recorders and MD recorders use heat-sensitive parts. Do not place them on top of the
amplifier.
