Connecting video components
Connect your video components to the jacks as shown below. Regarding digital video components
(like a DVD player), you must use the connections pictured on this page for the video signal, but in
order to hear a digital source (like a DVD) you should hook up the audio to a digital input (see
previous page). It is also a good idea to hook up your digital components with analog audio
connections (see previous page).
When connecting your equipment always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is
disconnected from the wall outlet.
VSX-D514 only – For better quality video, you can hook up using the component video jacks or the S-
video jacks on the rear of the receiver instead of the regular video jacks. Make sure you connect to
your TV in the same way that you’ve connected to your other video components.
Connecting DVD 5.1 channel components
If you prefer to use a seperate component for decoding DVDs, you can connect a decoder or a DVD
player with multi-channel analog outputs to the multi-channel inputs of this receiver.
When connecting your equipment, always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is
disconnected from the wall outlet.
The 5.1 channel input can only be used when DVD 5.1 ch is selected (see page 30).
