Connecting the multichannel analog outputs
For DVD Audio and SACD playback, your DVD player may
have 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 channel analog outputs (depending
on whether your player supports surround back
channels).
1 Connect the front, surround, center and
subwoofer outputs on your DVD player to the
corresponding MULTI CH INPUT jack on this receiver.
• Use standard RCA/phono jack cables for the
connections.
• Take care to connect each output to its
corresponding input on the receiver.
2 If your DVD player also has outputs for surround
back channels, connect these to the corresponding
MULTI CH INPUT jacks on this receiver.
• Use standard RCA/phono jack cables for the
connections.
• If there is a single surround back output, connect it to
the SURROUND BACK L (SINGLE) jack on this
receiver.
Note
• To listen to multichannel analog audio you’ll need to
switch the input signal selector to MULTI CH INPUT
(see Playing a source on page 39 for more on this).
See also Selecting USB and multichannel analog input
channels on page 47.
