Note

*1

Connect a turntable (MM) that has built-in a phono preamp to TV/CD IN or connect it to PHONO IN with the phono preamp turned
off. If your turntable (MM) doesn’t have a phono preamp, connect to PHONO IN. If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type car-
tridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer to connect to PHONO IN. See your turntable’s man-
ual for details.
If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the AV controller’s GND screw. With some turntables, connecting the ground wire
may produce an audible hum. If this happens, disconnect it.

*2

When you connect your personal computer to PC IN and select PC input selector, video of the personal computer is output from
HDMI output. However, because the AV controller selects the video input in the order of HDMI > component > analog RGB, if you
have assigned HDMI IN to the PC input selector, the AV controller will output signals from HDMI IN in priority to PC IN.

*3

Before using the multichannel input, you must assign it to an input selector. See “Analog Audio Input” (

47). To select the multi-

channel input, see “Audio Selector” (

64). To adjust the subwoofer sensitivity for the multichannel input, see “Subwoofer Input

Sensitivity” (

47).
