Connecting up
Connecting other audio
components
The number and kind of connections depends
on the kind of component you're connecting.
Follow the steps below to connect a CD-R, MD,
DAT, tape recorder or other audio component.
1 If your component has a digital output,
connect this to a digital input on the receiver
as shown.
The example shows a coaxial connection to the
CD digital input jack using a coaxial digital
audio cable.
2 If necessary, connect the analog audio
outputs of the component to a set of spare
audio inputs on this receiver.
You'll need to make this connection for
components without a digital output, or if you
want to record from a digital component. Use a
stereo RCA phono cable as shown.
3 If you're connecting a recorder, connect
the analog audio outputs (REC) to the analog
audio inputs on the recorder.
The example shows an analog connection to
the CD-R/TAPE/MD analog output jack using
a stereo RCA phono cable.
Note
1 Note that you must connect digital components to analog audio jacks if you want to record to/from digital components (like
an MD) to/from analog components.
