Connecting your TV
This page shows you how to connect your TV to the
receiver. To be able to play the sound from the TV’s built-
in tuner, connect the analog audio outputs from your TV
to this receiver.
If your TV has a built-in digital decoder, you can connect
the digital audio output to this receiver to enjoy Dolby
Digital and DTS sound from digital TV broadcasts.
1 Connect the MONITOR OUT 1 video jack on this
receiver to a video input on your TV.
• You can use a standard RCA/phono jack video cable
to connect to the composite video jack, or for higher
quality video, you can use an S-video cable to
connect to the S-video jack (S2 VIDEO).
• See Using the component video jacks on page 22 if
you want to use the component video outputs to
connect this receiver to your TV.
2 Connect the analog audio outputs from your TV
to the TV/DVD AUDIO inputs on this receiver.
• Use a stereo RCA/phono jack cable for the
connection.
3 Connect a coaxial digital audio output from your
TV to the DIGITAL 2 (TV/DVD) input on this receiver.
• Use a coaxial cable designed for digital audio for the
connection.
• If your TV only has an optical digital output, you can
connect it to one of the optical inputs on this receiver
using an optical cable. When you set up the receiver
you’ll need to tell the receiver which input you
connected the TV to (see also Assigning the digital
inputs on page 90).
Note
• If your TV doesn’t have a digital audio output, omit
step 3 above.
• If you use different cord types for the TV and the
source component, overlay information doesn’t
appear.
