CHAPTER 1

6. HDMI

Use these to connect any HDMI

components you may have in your

system. Three are inputs, and

one is an output to your HDMI-

equipped TV. This supports 1080p

and HDMIv1.3a sources. No on-

screen-display or audio decoding

inside the TGR-401 is available

from the HDMI inputs. Always

connect a separate digital audio

input cable when using HDMI.

7. Preamp Outputs

These line-level audio outputs

allow you to use external ampli-

fiers to power your loudspeakers.

There are outputs for L, R, C,

LS1, RS1, LS2, RS2, LB, RB, and

SUB.

8. Speaker-level Outputs

These speaker-level audio out-

puts connect to the input posts of

your loudspeakers.

9. 8-CH Inputs

These analog audio inputs can

connect to the output of an ex-

ternal surround processor, or a

source component such as DVD-

Audio, SACD, or a DVD player

Rear Panel Features

1. AM Antenna

These connections are for the

supplied AM loop antenna.

2. FM Antenna

The supplied FM antenna fits this

“F-type” coaxial connector. Other

antennas can be fitted for im-

proved reception.

3. SIRIUS Connection

This connection is provided for

the optional SIRIUS tuner kit

(SC-H1P1). This consists of an

antenna for picking up satellite ra-

dio transmissions, and a tuner unit

that connects here. The connec-

tion allows left and right audio and

control data to enter the TGR-401.

The OSD menus of the TGR-401

allow you to select your favorite

SIRIUS Satellite radio stations as

presets for easy recall. See page

63 for more details.

4. Audio/Video

These audio, composite-video

and S-video inputs connect to the

outputs of your audio video com-

ponents. When these inputs are

selected, the audio will be heard

in your system, and the video will

be seen on the TV screen.
Fixed audio output is available, for

example for stereo recording to

a tape player, independent of the

TGR-401 volume. A stereo audio

Zone 2 output is also available.
S-Video and composite video

outputs are available for monitor-

ing, as well as a composite video

output for Zone 2.

5. Component Video

These inputs connect to the

component-video outputs of your

video sources if they have this

capability. When these inputs are

selected, the TGR-401 will auto-

matically route any video signals

going into these jacks to the com-

ponent video outputs. Note that

component video provides the

best picture compared to compos-

ite or S-video.
If your TV Monitor has component

video inputs, connect them to the

outputs. The TGR-401 can also

up-convert composite video and

S-video from the other inputs.
