Connecting Your Equipment; Audio Components - Pioneer Elite VSX-29TX Operating Instructions Manual

Connecting Your Equipment

Audio Components

To begin set up 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). To use DTS surround sound
features you must hook up your digital components to the digital inputs but it is also a good idea to hook up your
digital components to analog audio jacks. If you want to record to/from digital components (like an MD) to/from analog
components you must hook up your digital equipment with these analog connections. See p.10, 11 for more on digital
connections.
When connecting your equipment always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected from
the wall outlet.
*The arrows indicate the direction of the audio signal.

Cassette deck placement
Depending on where the cassette 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.
