• When you play the audio signal from the DIGITAL IN terminals in Zone 2, the source will be downmixed into 2-
channel analog audio signal and output to the AUDIO OUT terminals.
• When you play the audio signal from the DIGITAL IN terminals in Zone 3, only the PCM signal will be output as an
analog source to the AUDIO OUT terminals. Similarly, with this connection, you can record only the PCM signal as
an analog source through the AUDIO OUT terminals.
• The audio input signal from the HDMI IN terminal can be output to the HDMI OUT terminal.
• The audio input signal from the MULTI-CH IN terminals in Zone 2 will be downmixed into a 2-channel source for
output. You cannot play the source from the MULTI-CH IN terminals in Zone 3 and record it.
Video cables
Note:
When you play the source in the remote zone (Zone 2 or Zone 3), connect the TV or monitor to the VIDEO 1, VIDEO
2, or VIDEO 3 terminal.

Component video
connection cable
(RCA type)
In this connection, the video signal is decom-
posed into three color difference signals (Y, Pb/
Cb, and Pr/Cr) and carried through three
cables, which provides better video quality than
the S Video connection.
The terminal shape for the component video
connection cable can be BNC-type or RCA-
type. For the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E, the US
model is equipped only with RCA-type termi-
nals, and the other models are equipped with
both RCA-type and BNC-type terminals.
This connection cannot transmit information for
controlling video devices (e.g., aspect ratio).
