CONNECTION
Audio connections:
Some video components are equipped with special
digital audio outputs (e.g. DVD players). If your video
component is equipped with a digital audio output, it
is recommended that you connect to your unit using
a digital cable. Digital audio cables are required to
use the DTS and Dolby Digital surround sound
modes. If you do not use digital connections, your
unit will only operate in Dolby PRO LOGICII, MUSIC,
THEATER, HALL and 5 Stereo surround modes.
There are two types of digital cables-coaxial (75 ohm)
and optical. Your unit is equipped with both types of
digital inputs. These inputs are labelled COAXIAL IN
and OPTICAL IN on the rear of the unit. Connect the
video component outputs to any one of the two
digital inputs on your unit. If the video component is
not equipped with a digital output, use a dual RCA to
RCA composite audio cable to connect to your unit.
Make sure to connect:
White plug to white jack (L: left)
Red plug to red jack (R: right)
Note:
When an optical cable is used, remove the
protection caps from the component and your unit
before attempting to insert the optical cable. If not
using an optical cable or if the cable is removed,
always re-install the protection caps to prevent dirt
and dust from entering the inputs. If using a coaxial
digital cable, leave the protection caps in both the
video component and your unit.
CD, TAPE jacks
Connect the component with RCA to RCA cords.
Make sure to connect:
White plug to white jack (L: left)
Red plug to red jack (R: right)
DIGITAL IN/OUT terminals
If the CD player or MD player has digital outputs,
connect the component with coaxial cables or optical
cables.
DIGITAL IN to DIGITAL OUT (CD, etc.)
DIGITAL OUT to DIGITAL IN (MD, etc.)
Connect to any one of the DIGITAL IN terminals.
When using DIGITAL OPTICAL IN terminals, remove
the caps from the terminals. When you do not use
them, leave the caps in place. To record digitally,
connect the source (CD player, etc.) to DIGITAL IN
and the recorder (MD, etc.) to DIGITAL OUT.
