Connecting to an AV amplifier/receiver
To enjoy multichannel surround sound you need to connect this recorder to an AV amplifier/receiver using the digital
optical output.
In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also connecting using the stereo analog connection for
compatibility with all discs and sources.
You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to your AV amplifier/receiver. Use the ordinary video output (as
shown here), or the S-video output.
Important
Noise may be output from your speakers if the recorder is not set up to work with your AV amplifier/receiver
properly (see
Audio Out settings
on page 104).
1 Connect RF antenna cables as shown.
This enables you to watch and record TV channels.
2 Connect one of the
DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL
jack
on this recorder to an optical digital input on your
AV amplifier/receiver.
This enables you to listen to multichannel surround
sound.
3 Connect the analog AUDIO OUTPUT and VIDEO
OUTPUT jacks on this recorder to an analog audio
and video input on your AV amplifier/receiver.
4 Connect the AV amplifier/receiver’s video
output to a video input on your TV.
Note
The diagram shows ordinary video connections,
but you can alternatively use an AV connector or
S-video connections, if they’re available.
Important
Do not connect this recorder to your TV ‘through’
your VCR using A/V cables. Always connect it
directly to your TV.
