Digital Components
In order to hear PCM/Dolby Digital/DTS soundtracks you need to make digital audio connections. You can do this
by either coaxial or optical connections (you do not need to do both). The quality of these two types of
connections is the same, but since some digital components only have one type of digital terminal, it is a matter
of matching like with like. The receiver has one coaxial and two optical inputs for a total of three digital inputs.
You must assign the jacks to the proper component(s) (refer to pages 19 – 20).
Connect your digital components as shown below. There is one digital out jack (VSX-709RDS only). If you
connect this to the optical input on a digital recorder (currently these include MD, DAT and CD-R), you can make
direct digital recordings with this receiver.

7 Digital audio cords/Optical cables
Commercially available digital audio coaxial cords (standard video cords can also be used) or optical cables
(not supplied) are used to connect digital components to this receiver.
When you use optical digital input or output terminals, pull off the caps and insert the plugs. Be sure to
insert completely.
