Connecting Analog Audio Components - Pioneer Elite VSX-43TX Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting Analog Audio Components

Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from
the AC outlet.
Connect your audio components to the jacks as shown below. These are all analog connections and your
analog audio components (turntable, cassette deck) use these jacks. Remember that for components you
want to record with you need to hook up four plugs (a set of stereo ins and a set of stereo outs), but for
components that only play (like a turntable) you only need to hook up one set of stereo plugs (two plugs).
If you want to record to/from digital components (like a CD-R) to/from analog components you must hook
up your digital equipment with these analog connections.
*The arrows indicate the direction of the audio signal.

Turntable (etc)
If you use a turntable with this
LINE IN jack only connect one
with a built-in phono equalizer.
• Depending on where the cassette
memo
deck is placed, noise may occur
during playback of your cassette
deck which is caused by leakage flux
from the transformer in the receiver.
If you experience noise, move the
cassette deck farther away from the
receiver.
