Note
1 • If your digital component only has a coaxial digital output, you can connect it to one of the coaxial inputs on this receiver using a coaxial
cable. When you set up the receiver you'll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the component to (see also The Input Setup
menu on page 89).
• The digital outputs from other components can be connected to any spare digital audio inputs on this receiver. You can assign them when
setting up the receiver (see also The Input Setup menu on page 89).
2 • When you want to record the source connected to ZONE3/SOURCE OUT, set ZONE3 to OFF. If you want to listen to the sound output from
ZONE3/SOURCE OUT in the sub zone without recording it, set ZONE3 to ON. See Using the MULTI-ZONE controls on page 65.
• In order to record some digital sources, you must make analog connections as explained in Connecting analog audio sources on page 24.

• With WMA9 Pro, sound problems may occur depending on your computer system. Note that WMA9 Pro 96 kHz sources will be
downsampled to 48 kHz.

About the WMA9 Pro decoder

This unit has an on-board Windows Media™ Audio 9
3
Professional
(WMA9 Pro) decoder, so it is possible to
playback WMA9 Pro-encoded audio using a coaxial or
optical digital connection when connected to a WMA9
Pro-compatible player. However, the connected PC, DVD
player, set-top box, etc. must be able to output WMA9 Pro
format audio signals through a coaxial or optical digital
output.
