Which Connections Should I Use?

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format
you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide.
For video components, you must make two connections—one for audio, one for video.
Video Connection Formats
Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by
using any one of the following video connection formats:
composite video, S-Video, or component video, the
latter offering the best picture quality.
A video signal connected to a V or S IN jack will be con-
verted—composite video to S-Video or S-Video to com-
posite video—but only for the MONITOR OUT jacks,
not the VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2 OUT V and S jacks.
