Connecting a satellite receiver or other digital
set-top box
Satellite and cable receivers, and terrestrial digital TV tuners
are all examples of so-called ‘set-top boxes’.
• If the set-top box or video component also has an HDMI
output, you can connect this too. See Connecting using
HDMI on page 14 for more on this.
Note
• In order to listen to the audio from the source component
that is connected to this receiver using a coaxial cable or
an optical cable, first, switch to the CD/SAT, then press
SIGNAL SEL to choose the audio signal C1 (COAXIAL1) or
O1 (OPTICAL1) (see Selecting the audio input signal on
page 17).
Connecting other audio components
The number and kind of connections depends on the kind of
component you’re connecting. Follow the steps below to
connect a CD-R, MD, DAT, tape recorder or other audio
component.
• Note that you must connect digital components to analog
audio jacks if you want to record to/from digital
components (like an MD) to/from analog components.
Note
• In order to listen to the audio from the CD player that is
connected to this receiver using an optical cable, first,
switch to the CD-R input, then press SIGNAL SEL to
choose the audio signal O1 (OPTICAL1) (see Selecting the
audio input signal on page 17).
Connecting antennas
Connect the AM loop antenna and the FM wire antenna as
shown below. To improve reception and sound quality,
connect external antennas (see Using external antennas on
page 16).
1 Push open the tabs, then insert one wire fully into each
terminal, then release the tabs to secure the AM antenna
wires.
2 Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached stand.
To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction
indicated by the arrow (fig. a) then clip the loop onto the
stand (fig. b).
3 Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and in a direction
giving the best reception.
4 Connect the FM wire antenna into the FM antenna
socket.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall
or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.
