Hdmi Input Connections; Analogue Video Input Connections - Cambridge Audio azur 650R User Manual

HDMI input connections

HDMI (High-Definition Multi-Media Interface) is an all digital connection that
can carry both audio and video in one cable. Direct digital transfer of audio
and video and support for various types of High Definition video content and
high resolution audio make this the best connection type to use. The 3 HDMI
inputs can be assigned to the BD/DVD, Video 1, Video 2 or Recorder 1
sources (see the "Assigning HDMI sources" section for more information).
DVI switching can be supported simply by using DVI to HDMI adaptors as
these two connection types are compatible. When using DVI only video will be
passed to the TV/Monitor and a Co-axial (SPDIF) or Optical (Toslink) digital

Analogue video input connections

Three types of analogue video connections can be made to the 650R:
1. Composite - connect with single 75 ohm video phono cable (RCA-RCA).
2. S-Video - connect with S-Video cable.
3. Component - connect with 75 ohm Component video cables (3RCA-3RCA)
For sources that support HDMI this is always the best choice. See later

audio connection must be made from each source to the 650R for it to be
able to receive audio and decode surround sound etc.
Note: As the 650R is unable to downwards convert HDMI video to analogue
video if you wish to make an HDMI connection to the unit and then watch the
same source in Zones Two and/or Three (requires Incognito keypads and
PSU to be added see later section) you should make an additional parallel
analogue video connection from the same source for use by Zone 2.
Nearly all BD/DVD player etc. feature analogue video outputs independent of
their HDMI outputs making this a simple connection to make.

Example: Blu-ray player and Set-up box are both assigned to HDMI input.
For sources that only support analogue video for best picture quality we
recommend making Component video connections, then in declining order of
quality, S-Video connections and then Composite video connections.
The 650R is able to transcode i.e. upconvert/downconvert analogue video to
the other variants and also to HDMI for its all of its main monitor/TV outputs
and the Incognito Ready Zone 2/3 outputs (requires Incognito keypads and
PSU to be added see later section) so you are free to use whichever variant
your source supports.
