Which Connections Should I Use?

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format
you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide.
For video components, such as a DVD player, you must make an audio connection and a video connection.
Video Connection Formats
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that
the AV receiver doesn't convert between formats, so only
outputs of the same format as the input will output the
signal.

Audio Connection Formats
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that
the AV receiver doesn't convert between formats.
For example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or
COAXIAL digital input are not output by the analog
TAPE OUT, so if you want to record from, for example,
your CD player, in addition to connecting it to a digital
input, you must also connect it to the analog CD IN.
