Connecting a DVD player and monitor TV
• To connect the video output from the DVD player to the AVR-3806, you only need to choose one
connection type. Component video connection offers the best quality (and is required for
progressive DVD playback), followed by S-Video, while composite video offers the lowest picture
quality of the three connection types. For more information about the video up conversion

• The AVR-3806 is equipped with HDMI connectors, so it can be connected to a DVD player or
monitor TV using an HDMI cable.
