Connecting Analog Audio Components - Pioneer VSX-D2011-G Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting Your Equipment

Connecting Analog Audio Components

Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from
the AC outlet.
Connect your audio components to the jacks as shown below. These are all analog connections and your
analog audio components (turntable, cassette deck) use these jacks. Remember that for components you
want to record with you need to hook up four plugs (a set of stereo ins and a set of stereo outs), but for
components that only play (like a turntable) you only need to hook up one set of stereo plugs (two plugs).
If you want to record to/from digital components (like a CD-R) to/from analog components you must hook
up your digital equipment with these analog connections.
*The arrows indicate the direction of the audio signal.

7 Audio cords
Use (RCA) audio cords (not supplied) to con-
nect the audio components.
• If you want to hook up any equipment other than a turntable to the PHONO/LINE jack
memo
please go to the PHONO/LINE Setup (see page 94) and choose the LINE setting. If your
turntable has a phono pre-amplifier (most do not) please choose the LINE setting as
well.
• Depending on where the cassette deck is placed, noise may occur during playback of
your cassette deck which is caused by leakage flux from the transformer in the
receiver. If you experience noise, move the cassette deck farther away from the
receiver.
