Connecting Antennas; Using External Antennas - Pioneer ELITE SX-A6-J Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting up
2 Connect the analog outputs of your tape
deck (or other recorder) to the TAPE inputs
(IN) on this receiver. Then connect the audio
inputs on the tape deck to the TAPE outputs
(OUT) on this receiver.
This will allow you to make recordings from the
components connected to this receiver. Use
stereo RCA phono cables as shown.
3 Turntables only: Connect the audio
outputs of your turntable to the PHONO
inputs on this receiver.
• If your turntable has a grounding wire,
secure it to the ground terminal on this
receiver.
• If your turntable has line-level outputs (i.e.,
it has a built-in phono pre-amp), connect it
to the AUX inputs instead.

Connecting antennas

Connect the AM loop antenna and the FM wire
antenna as shown below. To improve reception
and sound quality, connect external antennas
(see Using external antennas below).

3 Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached
stand.
To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the
direction indicated by the arrow then clip the
loop onto the stand (fig. a).
• If you plan to mount the AM antenna to a
wall or other surface, secure the stand with
screws (fig. b) before clipping the loop to
the stand. Make sure the reception is clear.
4 Place the AM antenna on a flat surface
and in a direction giving the best reception.
5 Connect the FM wire antenna in the same
way as the AM loop antenna.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully
and fix to a wall or door frame. Don't drape
loosely or leave coiled up.

Using external antennas

To improve FM reception
Use a 75 Ω coaxial cable to connect an external
FM antenna.
