Connecting Dvd 7.1 Channel (5.1 For Vsx-D710S) Components - Pioneer VSX-D710S Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting DVD 7.1 Channel (5.1 ch for VSX-D710S) Components
DVD and LD discs are compatible with both 2 channel and 7.1 channel audio output formats. Connections can be
made from a DVD player/multi-channel decoder equipped with 7.1 analog outputs to the 6.1 analog inputs on this
unit (the surround back channel is mono on the VSX-D810S/D850S models so we refer to it as 6.1 ch). You need to
connect both the left and right surround back channels for the VSX-D810S/D850S models but the sound from this
channel will only be mono. Always make sure that the receiver is switched off and unplugged from the wall outlet
before making or changing any connections.
The arrows indicate the direction of the audio signal.

MEMO:
• The 7.1 channel (5.1 channel for VSX-D710S) input can only be used when DVD 7.1 ch (5.1 channel for VSX-
D710S) input is selected.
• For 6.1 channel output select the SB 1ch setting (see p. 20). In this case you can connect the single surround back
speaker to either the left or right surround back terminals.
