Connecting Your Equipment
Video Components
Connect your video components to the jacks as shown below. Regarding digital video components (like a DVD), you
must use the analog connections pictured on this page for the video signal but in order to use Dolby Digital you should
hook up their audio to a digital input (see the next page). It is also a good idea to hook up your digital components with
analog audio connections as well (see the previous page). To cover all possible laser discs a DVD/LD player or LD player
requires an analog connection (as shown here) and two digital connections (see the next page).
When connecting your equipment always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected from
the wall outlet.
7 Audio/Video cords
Use audio/video cords (not supplied) to connect the
video components and a video cord to connect the
monitor TV.
Connect red plugs to R
(right), white plugs to L (left),
and the yellow plugs to
VIDEO.
Be sure to insert completely.
If your video components have S-video jacks,
you could use S-video cords (not supplied) to
connect them on the back of the receiver. These
jacks are labeled by the Japanese designation
"S2" on the VSX-27TX/26TX/24TX but they are
simply S-video jacks.
However, if you use S-video cords for your
video hook ups you must also hook up your TV
with S-video connections. Conversely, if you
use regular composite video cords for video
hook ups, you should use them for your TV as
well.
