Connecting Your Equipment
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and
disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.
Audio Components
To begin set up connect your audio components to the jacks as shown below. These are all analog
connections and your analog audio components (turntable, cassette deck) use these jacks.
Remember that for components you want to record with you need to hook up four plugs (a set of
stereo ins and a set of stereo outs), but for components that only play (like a turntable) you only
need to hook up one set of stereo plugs (two plugs). To use DTS or Dolby Digital surround sound
features you must hook up your digital components to the digital inputs (see p.13). We also
recommend hooking up your digital components to analog audio jacks. If you want to record to/
from digital components (like an MD) to/from analog components you must hook up your digital
equipment with these analog connections. See p.13,14 for more on digital connections.
*The arrows indicate the direction of the audio signal.
If your turntable
has a ground
wire, connect it
to the SIGNAL
GND terminal.
7 Audio cords
Use audio cords (not supplied) to
connect the audio components.
Connect red plugs to
R (right) and white
plugs to L (left).
Be sure to insert
completely.
Cassette deck placement
Depending on where the cassette deck is
placed, noise may occur during playback of
your cassette deck which is caused by leakage
flux from the transformer in the amplifier. If you
experience noise, move the cassette deck
farther away from the amplifier.

Please don't hook up any other component to the phono jacks other than a turntable. It could
damage the equipment. If your turntable has a built-in amplifier please hook it up to the LINE IN or
another input other than the PHONO.
