MCH input
This multichannel analogue
audio input can be connected
to a source device which
outputs surround sound on its
analogue outputs. Such devices
typically include DVD-Audio
and SACD players. This input
does not pass through any of
the audio processing in the
unit, therefore functions such
as speaker size and distance
from the listening position
should be copied from the
Setup menus into the Setup
menus of your multichannel source. Note however that
speaker level trims are applied to the MCH input on the
unit. Therefore speaker level trim settings on multichannel
source equipment should be left unset at zero.
Subwoofer outputs
Connect each of these outputs to the LFE input(s) on
your subwoofer(s).The Subwoofer outputs are buffered,
have a low output impedance, are at line level and follow
the Zone 1 volume control setting. They are able to drive
long cables or several inputs in parallel if required.
For more information on connecting speakers, see page
23.

Connect the left and right
inputs to the left and right
outputs of your source
equipment.
Front panel PHonES socket
This socket accepts headphones with an impedance
rating between 32 Ω and 600 Ω , fitted with a 3.5mm
stereo jack plug. The headphone socket is always active,
except when AVR500 is muted.
When the headphone jack is inserted, the speaker
outputs and analogue pre-amplifier outputs are
automatically muted.
Front panel aUX input
The front panel AuX input can be
used as an analogue or optical
digital input.
For analogue sources, use a
stereo 3.5mm lead; for digital
sources use a 3.5mm optical
lead. The front input is also used
for the auto-setup microphone
input.
