Note: The AVR 160 is equipped with a total of six digital audio inputs, four on the rear panel (Coaxial 1 and 2, Optical 1 and 2) and two on the front panel (Coaxial 3 and Optical 3), which

may be assigned to any of the nine source inputs (DVD, Video 1 through 3, HDMI 1 through 3, CD and Tape). Certain digital audio connections are recommended simply because those digital

audio inputs are assigned to those sources by default at the factory. But any digital audio input may be reassigned to any source. Since you may not be using all nine source inputs, you

may reassign a digital audio input that is recommended for a source you aren’t using to another device. Table A1 is a guideline; you may need to make adjustments to fit your system.
