If the reception is poor with the AM loop antenna,
you can use an outdoor AM antenna instead.

About video connections

HDMI
• HDMI provides the best video connection and is
better than component or standard (composite)
video.
• An HDMI cable carries both video and sound. You
do not need to make an audio connection when
using HDMI.
• For stable signal transfer, we recommend using
HDMI cords that are a maximum of 5 meters in
length.
• Among the components that support HDMI,
some components can control other components
through the HDMI connector. However, your
receiver cannot be controlled by another
component through the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector
(including the sampling frequency and bit length)
may be limited by the component that is
connected.

Copyright protection system
Your receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth
Digital Contents Protection) technology to protect
copyright of digital video signals against illegal
duplication.
Devices you connect to your receiver must also
support HDCP. The video signals will not be output
correctly if a component incompatible with HDCP is
connected.

Connecting a DVD recorder

Note
The following task shows how to connect a DVD
recorder using HDMI. If your DVD recorder has a DVI
jack, you can use an DVI-to-HDMI adapter to connect
the recorder to the receiver. When connecting a DVI
device, you must connect an audio cable to the
AUDIO IN GAME/AUX 2 jacks or OPTICAL IN 1 jack.
To connect a DVD recorder:
• Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI IN
GAME/AUX2 jack on the back of your receiver
and to the HDMI OUT jack on DVD recorder.
Note
An HDMI cable carries both video and audio. You do
not need to make an audio connection.
