Hooking Up the Components
Multi channel input hookups
Although this amplifier incorporates a multi channel decoder, it is also equipped with multi channel
input jacks. These connections allow you to enjoy multi channel software encoded in formats other
than Dolby Digital and DTS. If your DVD player is equipped with multi channel output jacks, you
can connect them directly to the amplifier to enjoy the sound of the DVD players multi channel
decoder. Alternatively, the multi channel input jacks can be used to connect an external multi channel
decoder.
To fully enjoy multi channel surround sound, five speakers (two front speakers, two surround
speakers, and a center speaker) and a sub woofer are required. Refer to the operating instructions
supplied with your DVD player, multi channel decoder, etc., for details on the multi channel
hookups.
Tips
To specify the video input to be used with the audio signals from the MULTI CH INPUT jacks, set the MULTI
CH IN visual input in the SET UP menu (page 24).
You can use cord A instead of 2 cords E.
Notes
When using the connections described below, adjust the level of the surround speakers and sub woofer from the
DVD player or multi channel decoder.
