In this case, do not connect the TV's video output jack to the TV/SAT VIDEO IN jack on the receiver. If you are connecting a separate TV tuner (or satellite tuner), connect both the audio and video output jacks to the receiver as shown above. If you have a TV, satellite tuner, DVD player, or LD player with COMPONENT VIDEO (Y, B-Y, R-Y) output jacks and a monitor with COMPONENT VIDEO input jacks, use a video cord (not supplied) to connect to the receiver. When using the S-video jacks instead of the video jacks, your monitor must also be connected via an S-video jack. S-video signals are on a separate bus from the video signals and will not be output through the video jacks. Note On this receiver, the component video signals are not compatible with S-video signals or video signals. 9GB Digital component hookups Connect the digital output jacks of your DVD player and satellite tuner (etc.) to the receiver's digital input jacks to bring the multi channel surround sound of a movie theater into your home. 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. For 6.1 channel surround sound, refer page 16. You can also connect an LD player with an RF OUT jack via an RF demodulator, like the Sony MODRF1 (not supplied). Note You cannot connect an LD player's DOLBY DIGITAL RF OUT jack directly to this unit's digital input jacks. You must first convert the RF signal to either an optical or coaxial digital signal.

Connect to the analog input jacks (CD/SACD IN jacks). Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the SACD player. 11GB Multi channel input hookups Although this receiver 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 receiver to enjoy the sound of the DVD player's 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. For 6.1 channel surround sound, refer page 16. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with your DVD player, multi channel decoder, etc., for details on the multi channel hookups. 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. · See page 15 for details on speaker system hookup.
