Preparing Your Receiver
Connecting
Program Sources You can connect up to five external program sources to your receiver.
Connecting a Turntable
Connect a turntable with a magnetic cartridge only. Some older turnta-
bles use a ceramic-type cartridge that does not work with this system.
Connect the turntable’s left and right cables to the receiver’s L (left) and
R (right) PHONO IN jacks. Then connect the turntable’s ground wire to the
receiver’s SIGNAL GND terminal.
Connecting a CD Player
To connect a CD player to the receiver, connect the CD player’s left and
right output jacks to the receiver’s
L and R CD IN jacks.
Connecting Cassette Decks
You can connect cassette decks to the VCR/TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 MONITOR
jacks. Connect the cassette deck’s output jacks to the VCR/TAPE 1 IN PLAY
or TAPE 2 MONITOR IN PLAY jacks. Then, connect the cassette deck’s input
jacks to the VCR/TAPE 1 OUT REC or TAPE 2 MONITOR OUT REC jacks.
You can connect a third cassette deck (for playback only) to the DVD/TV IN
or LD/SAT (audio) jacks.

ble, position the cassette deck to the

tions.
