SUBWOOFER OUTPUT

MCH input

This multichannel analogue

audio input can be connected

to a source device which

outputs surround sound on its

analogue outputs. Such devices

typically include DVD-Audio

and SACD players. This input

does not pass through any of

the audio processing in the

unit, therefore functions such

as speaker size and distance

from the listening position

should be copied from the

Setup menus into the Setup

menus of your multichannel source. Note however that

speaker level trims are applied to the MCH input on the

unit. Therefore speaker level trim settings on multichannel

source equipment should be left unset at zero.

Subwoofer outputs

Connect each of these outputs to the LFE input(s) on

your subwoofer(s).The Subwoofer outputs are buffered,

have a low output impedance, are at line level and follow

the Zone 1 volume control setting. They are able to drive

long cables or several inputs in parallel if required.
For more information on connecting speakers, see page

18 and 49.

analogue audio

inputs

TAPE, CD, AV, DVD, SAT, VCR,

PVR
Connect the left and right

inputs to the left and right

outputs of your source

equipment.

Front panel PHonES socket

This socket accepts headphones with an impedance

rating between 32

Ω

and 600

Ω

, fitted with a 3.5mm

stereo jack plug. The headphone socket is always active,

except when AVR500 is muted.
When the headphone jack is inserted, the speaker

outputs and analogue pre-amplifier outputs are

automatically muted.

Front panel aUX input

The front panel

AuX

input can be

used as an analogue or optical

digital input.
For analogue sources, use a

stereo 3.5mm lead; for digital

sources use a 3.5mm optical

lead. The front input is also used

for the auto-setup microphone

input.
