System connections
Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been made.
General
On each pair of input or output jacks, the lower jack {marked R)
corresponds to the right channel, and the upper jack {marked L)
to the left channel. When jacks on other equipment or connection
cables are color-coded, the color red usually corresponds to the
right channel (Red = Right). A pair of video jacks, indicated with
V, is also provided. A video component should be connected here.
Turntable Connections
Be sure to connect the ground (earth) lead wire from the turntable
to the ground terminal (GND). Lack of proper ground connection
will cause hum. Also observe the following precautions.
® Place the turntable on a firm shelf or desk free from vibrations
(especially those generated by the speaker systems). If the
turntable is permitted to pick up such vibrations, not only will
this unit's performance suffer, but distortion in the bass range
and howling noise in the speakers may also occur.
@® Check the turntable instruction manual for any other precautions.
@ The loud noises that occur when connecting and disconnecting
the turntable leads could damage the speakers. Always turn the
power switch off before making connections.
Tuner Connections
Connect an FM/AM tuner to the tuner input terminals. Be sure the
left and right channels are connected properly.
Compact Disc Player Connections
Connect a compact disc player to the CD input terminals. Be sure
the feft and right channels are connected properly.
Tape Deck Connections
Two tape decks can be connected at once to this unit. Connect the
tape deck output leads to the PLAY jacks and the tape deck input
leads to the REC jacks of this unit. For more details, refer to your
tape deck owner's manual.
Video Component Connections
With a video component with the input and output capabilities,
such as a video cassette recorder (VCR), you have to make con -
nections with two sets of leads: Input and Output, each set con-
sisting of Audio signal Left and Right leads, and a Visual! signal lead.
Connect the Audio Input Left lead of your VCR to the VCR REC
L terminals of this unit, the Audio Right lead to the VCR RECR
terminal, and the Video Input lead to the VCR REC V terminal.
Likewise, connect the Audio Output Left lead of your VCR to the
VCR PLAY L terminal of this unit, the Audio Output Right jead to
the VCR PLAY R terminal, and the Video Output lead to the VCR
PLAY V terminal. |
With a video component with the output capability only, you will
make connections with one set of leads. Connect the Audio Output
Left lead of your video component, such as a Video Disc Player
(VDP), to the VDP L terminal, the Audio Output Right iead tothe
VDP R, and the Video Output lead to the VDP V terminal.
NOTE:
When you make all these connections, be sure to observe the
polarity of the audio signal leads, and not to mix the visual signal
leads with the audio signal leads.
