CHAPTER 2
8-Channel Input connections (analog audio)
Composite video signal
From: DVD video output
To: TGIII DVD video input
This input is really useful as an
input for DVD A, SACD, etc., as a mul-
tichannel direct (DSP-bypass) input.
If your DVD player has its own sur-
round processing circuits you can con-
nect it as shown. The surround back
inputs can be left disconnected if your
player does not have these outputs.
An external surround processor can
also be connected like this. You will
have to connect some of your sources
to the external processor, so it can
process the original signals.
Note: The eight channels of audio
from the DVD bypass the DSP circuits
of the TGIII, so the tone controls, bass

management and sur round mode se-
lec tions will have no effect. This pro-
vides the highest fi delity signal path
for SACD or DVD-Audio, free from
any coloration or processor circuitry.
This input is only for the Main Zone,
it is not selectable for Zone 2.
The video output in this example is
connected to the TGIII DVD compos-
ite video input. Use the OSD 8-CH
input confi guration menu to lock the
8-channel input to DVD video (see
page 34 for details). Whenever the
8-channel input is selected, the DVD
video will also be selected.
Composite video signal

to: TV Monitor's composite video input
Digital audio signals

To: TGIII DVD digital audio input
DVD, DVD-A,
SACD player
etc.
In this diagram, the player's digital
output is also connected. If you select
the TGIII's DVD input, you will get
DVD video and DVD digital audio. If
you select the TGIII's 8-Channel input,
you will get DVD video, and analog
audio from the 8-channel input.
