Connecting a Turntable
Connect a turntable with a magnetic cartridge only. Some older turntables use a ceramic-type cartridge that does not work with this system.
Connect the turntable’s left and right cables to the receiver’s left and right
PHONO
jacks. Then connect the turntable’s ground wire to the receiver’s
SIG-
NAL GND
terminal.
Connecting a CD Player
To connect a CD player to the receiver, connect the CD player’s left and right output jacks to the receiver’s
CD
jacks.
Note: If you place the cassette deck directly above, below, or to the left of the receiver, the receiver could interfere with the cassette deck’s operation. If possible, position the cassette deck to the right of the receiver or locate it away from the receiver.
Connecting Cassette Decks
You can connect cassette decks to the
VCR/TAPE 1
and the
TAPE 2 MONITOR
jacks.
Connect the cassette deck’s output jacks to the
VCR/TAPE 1 IN
(audio) or
TAPE 2 IN
PLAY
jacks, and connect the cassette deck’s input jacks to
VCR/TAPE 1 OUT
(audio) or
TAPE 2 OUT REC
jacks.
You can connect a third cassette deck (for playback only) to the
LD/SAT IN
(audio) jacks.

Note: If your VCR is monaural, use a Yadapter (available at your local RadioShack store) to connect the VCR’s audio output to both the
L
and
R
audio inputs on the receiver.
Connecting Video Sources
If you connect two or more video sources, such as VCRs or laser disc players, to your receiver, you can use the receiver to select each video source. You can also use the receiver to easily record from the video sources to the source connected to
VCR/TAPE 1
.
Connect phono cables from each video source’s audio outputs to the receiver’s
VCR/TAPE 1
or
LD/SAT IN
(audio) jacks. Then connect phono cables from the receiver’s
VCR/TAPE 1 OUT
(audio) jacks to the source’s audio input jacks.
Connect video cables from each video source’s video outputs to the receiver’s
VCR/TAPE 1 VIDEO IN
or
LD/SAT VIDEO IN
jacks. Then connect video cables from the receiver’s
VCR/TAPE 1 VIDEO OUT
jack to the VCR’s video input.
You can connect a third video source to the
DVD/TV IN
jacks. Connect the source’s video output to the receiver’s
DVD/TV VIDEO IN
jack, and the source’s audio outputs to the receiver’s
DVD/TV IN
(audio) jacks.
The front panel
VIDEO L AUDIO R
jacks accept another audio/video device. These jacks are convenient for temporarily connecting another video source to the receiver, such as a camcorder.
Connecting a Video Monitor
The monitor (or TV with baseband video input) you connect to the
VIDEO OUT
terminal can monitor any program you connect to the receiver’s
VCR/TAPE 1
,
LD/SAT
, or
DVD/TV
input jacks. Connect a video cable from the receiver’s
VIDEO OUT TO
MONITOR TV
jack to the monitor’s video input.
