important notes about component/Rgb
video inputs and outputs
When you connect your devices to these
<
connectors, take care to follow the letter/colour
coding for each input. no damage will occur but
incorrectly coloured or unstable pictures will
result.
The Component video inputs have sufficient
<
bandwidth for nTSC (525/60) or PAL (625/50)
video and HDTV video signals.
Before connecting your AVr360 to your source
components and speakers, please read through the
next few pages which will explain all the input and
output connectivity that is available. The 'Speakers'
section explains how to connect up your speakers to
avoid damage to the amplifier and how to arrange your
speakers for best performance.
general
The inputs are named to make it easier to reference
connected devices (e.g. ' ' or ' '). They all have the
BD VCR
same input circuit, so there is no reason why you should
not connect a different device to any of the inputs. For
example, if you had two BD players and the AV input
was not being used, then the second BD player could be
connected to the AV input.
When connecting a video source, its audio must be
connected to the corresponding sockets. For example,
if you a had a satellite decoder plugged into a
SAT
input, the audio must be connected to the audio
SAT
inputs!
The hierarchy for video connections for best quality is
as follows:
HDMI
<
Component/rgB
<
S-Video
<
Composite.
<
For any video source to be available in Zone 2 you must
have a Composite connection between AVr360 and the
source.
Making connections
Wherever possible, connect both the analogue
<
and digital outputs of digital sources. This enables
use of a digital input for the main zone and the
corresponding analogue input for the Zone 2 output.
Take care to place cables as far from any power
<
supply cabling as is practicable, to reduce hum and
other noise problems.
NOTE:
For each input, you must set the "Video Source"
and "Audio Source" settings according to the
connection type.

HdMi connectors
AV, SAT, BD, VCR, PVR
Connect the HDMI video outputs of your source equipment to these
corresponding HDMI inputs.
OUTPUT
Connect this output to the HDMI video input of your display device.
This output is compatible with the HDMI 1.4 Audio return Channel
(ArC). If you have a supported television then sound from the
television's internal tuner (e.g. Freeview, Freesat, DVB-T) will be
available using the AVr360's "Display" input.
