Connecting Your Components
Audio Connection Precautions
• Always refer to the instruction manual that came
with the component you are connecting.
• Do not plug in the power cord until all connections
have been made.
■ RCA Connection Color Coding
• Red connectors are used for the right channel, and
white connectors are used for the left channel.

Connecting a Turntable
The A-9377's PHONO input is designed for use with a
turntable fitted with a moving-magnet (MM) cartridge.
Use an analog audio cable to connect the A-9377's
PHONO L/R jacks to the audio output jacks on the turn-
table, as shown. If there are RCA shorting plugs in the
jacks, remove them before connecting.
Notes:
• If the turntable has a ground wire, connect it to
A-9377's GND terminal. With some turntables, con-
necting the ground wire may cause hum, in which case
it should be disconnected.
• If the turntable has a moving-coil (MC) type cartridge,
you'll need a commercially available MC head amp or
transformer. In this case, connect the turntable to the
head amp or transformer, and connect that to the
A-9377's PHONO L/R jacks.

Ground wire
• Push each plug in all the
way to make a good connec-
tion (loose connections can
cause noise or malfunc-
tions).
• Do not bind audio cables with power cords and
speaker cables. Doing so may adversely affect the
sound quality.
• To prevent interference, keep power cords and
speaker cables away from the tuner's antenna.
