NOTE: To assist in making the correct connec-
tions for multichannel input/output and speaker
connections, all connection jacks and terminals
have been color coded in conformance with the
latest CEA standards as follows:
Front Left: White
Front Right: Red
Center: Green
Surround Left: Blue
Surround Right: Gray
Surround Back Left: Brown
Surround Back Right: Tan
Subwoofer (LFE): Purple
Digital Audio: Orange
Composite Video: Yellow

Component Video “Pb”: Blue
AM Antenna: Connect the AM loop antenna
supplied with the receiver to these terminals. If an
external AM antenna is used, make connections to
the AM and GND terminals in accordance with
the instructions supplied with the antenna.
FM Antenna: Connect the supplied indoor or
an optional external FM antenna to this terminal.
Tape Inputs: Connect these jacks to the
PLAY/OUT jacks of an audio recorder.
Tape Outputs: Connect these jacks to the
RECORD/INPUT jacks of an audio recorder.
Subwoofer Output: Connect this jack to
the line-level input of a powered subwoofer. If an
external subwoofer amplifier is used, connect this
jack to the subwoofer amplifier input.
DVD Audio Inputs: Connect these jacks to
the analog audio jacks on a DVD or other audio
or video source.
CD Inputs: Connect these jacks to the
analog output of a compact disc player or CD
changer or any other audio source.
Multiroom Outputs: Connect these jacks
to an optional audio power amplifier to listen to
the source selected by the multiroom system in a
remote room.
Fan Vents: These ventilation holes are the
output of the AVR 507’s airflow system. To
ensure proper operation of the unit and to avoid
possible damage to delicate surfaces, make
certain that these holes are not blocked and that
there is at least three inches of open space
between the vent holes and any wooden or
fabric surface.
8-Channel Direct Inputs: These jacks are
used for connection to source devices such as
DVD-Audio or SACD players with discrete analog
outputs. Depending on the source device in use,
all eight jacks may be used, though in many
cases only connections to the front left/right,
center, surround left/right and LFE (subwoofer
input) jacks will be used for standard 5.1 audio
signals.
Digital Audio Outputs: Connect these
jacks to the matching digital input connector on
a digital recorder such as a CD-R or MiniDisc
recorder.
