Precautions when connecting speakers:
If a speaker is placed near a TV or video
monitor, the colors on the screen may be
disturbed by the speaker’s magnetism. If
this should happen, move the speaker away
to a position where it does not cause this
effect.
NOTE:
• When using only one surround back
speaker, connect it to the left channel.

To achieve Dolby Digital
playback effect, use a unit
that can sufficiently reproduce
frequencies of under 80 Hz.
Connecting a DVD player and monitor TV
•To connect the digital audio output from the DVD player, you can choose from either the coaxial
or optical connections. If you choose to use the coaxial connection, it needs to be assigned. For
more information about Digital Input Assignment ( page 39).
• Connect a non-DVD video disc player (such as a laser disc, VCD/SVCD, or future high definition
disc player) to the DVD/VDP terminals in the same way.
• Precaution when using S-terminals
This unit’s S-terminals (input and output) and video pin terminals (input and output) have
independent circuit structures, so that video signals input from the S-terminals are only output
from the S-terminal outputs and video signals input from the pin terminals are only output from
the pin terminal outputs. When connecting this unit with equipment that is equipped with S-
terminals, keep the above point in mind and make connections according to the equipment’s
instruction manuals.
Audio signal flow is shown with white
arrows; video signal flow is shown
with gray arrows.
• For best picture quality (especially with progressive DVD and other high definition sources),
choose the component video connection to your monitor TV. S-Video and composite video
outputs are also provided if your TV does not have component video inputs.
NOTE:
• The component video input and/or output terminals may be labeled differently on some TVs,
monitors or video components (Y, PB, PR; Y, CB, CR; Y, B-Y, R-Y). Check the owner’s manuals
for the other components for further information.
