03 Connecting your equipment

Connecting digital audio sources

This receiver has both digital inputs and outputs, allowing you to connect digital audio components for playback and
for making digital recordings.
Most digital components also have analog connections. See Connecting analog audio sources on page 25 if you want
to connect these too.
SC-07
1 Connect an optical-type
your digital component to the OPTICAL IN 4 (CD-R)
input.
Use an optical cable for the connection.
2 For recording equipment, connect one of the
optical-type DIGITAL outputs to a digital input on the
recorder.
Use an optical cable to connect to the SOURCE OUT or
ZONE3/SOURCE OUT.
Note
1 • If your digital component only has a coaxial digital output, you can connect it to one of the coaxial inputs on this receiver using a coaxial
cable. When you set up the receiver you'll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the component to (see also The Input Setup
menu on page 92).
• The digital outputs from other components can be connected to any spare digital audio inputs on this receiver. You can assign them when
setting up the receiver (see also The Input Setup menu on page 92).
2 • When you want to record the source connected to ZONE3/SOURCE OUT, set ZONE3 to OFF. If you want to listen to the sound output from
ZONE3/SOURCE OUT in the sub zone without recording it, set ZONE3 to ON. See Using the MULTI-ZONE controls on page 68.
• In order to record some digital sources, you must make analog connections as explained in Connecting analog audio sources on page 25.
3 • Windows Media and the Windows logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other
countries.
• With WMA9 Pro, sound problems may occur depending on your computer system. Note that WMA9 Pro 96 kHz sources will be
downsampled to 48 kHz.
