Video components
To play video sound through your Lifestyle
(fixed outputs preferred) of your stereo TV, stereo VCR, DVD, or laserdisc player to the music
center VIDEO SOUND input jacks. You can use a Y-adapter (available at electronics stores) to
connect a mono source. However, the left and right speakers then play the same monaural
sound.
Your TV is the display for the video (picture) signal. The video signal should not be connected
®
to the Lifestyle

music system.

Note: To ensure proper stereo sound, connect the L and R audio outputs from your stereo
VCR directly to your music center L and R VIDEO SOUND inputs.
If you prefer to connect the audio outputs from your TV to the music center, be sure to use the
L and R audio outputs and the video output from the VCR to the TV, in addition to coaxial
cable.Then, for proper playback of stereo-encoded video tapes, use the TV remote control to
select the correct TV inputs (for example, change from "ANTENNA A" to "VIDEO 1" to receive
the sound transmitted through the L and R connections). See your TV owner's manual for
assistance.
