Other connections
Use standard RCA audio cables to connect other components to your Lifestyle ® system,
matching the red connector to R (right), white (or black) connector to L (left).
You can use a Y-adapter (available at electronics stores) to connect a mono source. How-
ever, the left and right speakers then play the same monaural sound.
Tape deck
To use an external tape recorder (analog audio cassette, analog open reel, digital audio
tape, or Digital Compact Cassette), connect the inputs (REC) of the tape deck to the music
center TAPE OUT jacks. Connect the outputs (PLAY) from the tape deck to the music center
TAPE IN jacks. See Figure 13.
CD changer, DVD player, or laserdisc player
To use one of these components, connect its audio outputs to the music center AUX INPUT
jacks, matching the red plug to R (right) and black or white plug to L (left). See Figure 13.
Turntable
To connect a turntable, you need a phono preamplifier (with RIAA equalization). Consult your
dealer for the appropriate model. Connect the audio outputs of the phono preamplifier to
the music center AUX INPUT jacks, matching the red plug to R (right) and black or white
plug to L (left).
Note: The Lifestyle ® 30 system cannot turn a connected component on or off.
