• Select one of the audio connectors (COAX. IN or AUDIO IN), and connect the cables.
• If you connect the DIGITAL INs to your components, it is easier to do so by following the default settings: OPT.
IN 1 : BD/BDR, OPT. IN 2 : DVD/DVR, COAX. IN 1 : AUX, COAX. IN 2 : CD. If your DIGITAL connections are
different from default settings, you should assign the DIGITAL INs you used with the "Digital Audio Assign" of
"Setting up the Input Setup" on page 61.

For details on DIGITAL INs and OUT (OPT. and COAX.), see below.
Note
• Do not connect the turntable with MC type cartridge directly. If so, use a separate head amplifier or step-up transformer.
About digital INs and OUT
The OPTICAL and the COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTs of the components that are connected to this receiver can

be connected to the DIGITAL INs.
A digital input should be connected to the components such as a BD player, DVD player, etc. capable of

outputting DTS Digital Surround, Dolby Digital or PCM format digital signals, etc.
If the component with OPTICAL IN jack is connected to the OPTICAL OUT jack of this receiver, you

can record the high quality sound of CDs, etc. without degradation. For details, refer to the operating
instructions of the connected component.
When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connection, be sure to use a 75Ω COAXIAL cord, not a conventional

AUDIO cord.
Some of the commercially available optical fiber cords cannot be used for the equipment. If there is an

optical fiber cord which cannot be connected to your equipment, consult your dealer or nearest service
organization.
Note
• Be sure to make either an OPTICAL or a COAXIAL DIGITAL connection on each component.
• Depending on the digital audio signal format input into the HDMI IN connector, some digital signals cannot be output
from the OPTICAL OUT jack.
