8 REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
Rear Panel Connections
B Video Monitor Outputs: Connect these
jacks to the composite and/or S-Video input of a
TV monitor or video projector to view the output
of any video source selected by the receiver’s
video switcher.
C Front/Center Speaker Outputs: Connect
these outputs to the matching + or – terminals
on your front/center speakers. When making
speaker connections, always make certain to
maintain correct polarity by connecting the red
(+) terminals on the AVR to the red (+) terminals
on the speaker and the black (–) terminals on
the AVR to the black (–) terminals on the speak-
ers. (See page 14 for more information on
speaker polarity.)
D Surround Speaker Outputs: Connect
these outputs to the matching + or – terminals
on your left and right surround speakers. When
making speaker connections always make cer-
tain to maintain correct polarity by connecting
the red (+) terminals on the AVR to the red (+)
terminals on the speakers and the black (–) ter-
minals on the AVR to the black (–) terminals on
the speakers. See page 14 for more information
on speaker polarity.
E Switched AC Accessory Outlet: This out-
let may be used to power any device that you
wish to have turn on when the unit is turned on
with the System Power Control switch 2.
F Unswitched AC Accessory Outlet: This
outlet may be used to power any AC device. The
power will remain on at this outlet regardless of
whether the AVR is on or off (in Standby), pro-
vided that the Main Power switch 1 is on.
Note: The total power consumption of all
devices connected to the accessory outlets
should not exceed 100 watts from the
Unswitched Outlet
F and 50 W from the
Switched Outlet E.
G AC Power Cord: Connect the AC plug to an
unswitched AC wall output.
H DVD Video Inputs: Connect these jacks to
the composite or S-Video output jacks on a DVD
player or other video source.
I Video 1 Video Outputs: Connect these
jacks to the RECORD/INPUT composite or
S-Video jack on a VCR.
J Video 2 Audio Inputs: Connect these jacks
to the PLAY/OUT audio jacks on a VCR or other
video source.
K Video 2 Video Inputs: Connect these jacks
to the PLAY/OUT composite or S-Video jacks on
a second VCR or other video source.
L Optical Digital Inputs: Connect the optical
digital output from a DVD player, HDTV receiver,
LD player, MD player or CD player to these jacks.
The signal may be either a Dolby Digital signal, a
DTS signal or a standard PCM digital source.
M Video 1 Video Inputs: Connect these jacks
to the PLAY/OUT composite or S-Video jacks on
a VCR or other video source.
Note: Either the Video or S-Video output of any
S-Video source must be connected to the
AVR, not both in parallel, otherwise the video
may be disturbed or its performance be
adversely effected.
N 6/8-Channel Direct Inputs: These jacks
are used for connection to source devices such
as DVD-Audio or SACD players with discrete
analog outputs.
O Surround Back Speaker Outputs: These
speaker terminals are used to power the
surround back left/surround back right speakers
in a 6.1 channel system.
P Monitor Component Video Outputs:
Connect these outputs to the component video
inputs of a video projector or monitor. When a
source connected to one of the two
Component Video Inputs
Q R is selected
the signal will be sent to these jacks.
Q Video 2 Component Video Inputs:
Connect the Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs of
an HDTV Set-top convertor, satellite receiver, or
other video source device with component video
outputs to these jacks.
R DVD Component Video Inputs: Connect
the Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs of a DVD
