CONNECTING AUDIO AND VIDEO SOURCES AND RECORDERS
continued
Connecting a Multichannel Source to the C 1
Certain multichannel sources, such as SACD and DVD-A players, have internal surround decoders
and D/A converters and can deliver multichannel audio only via their analog output jacks. The diagram
shows a 5.1-channel source, the most common type today, and indicates the "Back" connections to
be used with 7 .1-channel components when they become available. Like the balanced-line "Bypass"
mode, this is a straight pass-through of the analog signal from input to output, with no signal modifi-
cations beyond the analog level controls (including volume adjustment and the center, surround, and
subwoofer-level trims on Page 3 of the Master remote's C1/C2 menu).
