CONNECTING TO THE AMPLIFIER OR RECEIVER
For connections with the amplifier or receiver, use the included
connection cords.
Make sure that you have the left (L) and right (R) channels
correctly connected. That means that jacks marked “L” on this unit
must be connected to jacks marked “L” on the other unit. Likewise
with the “R” jacks. This is easy if you remember to always use the
red plug for the “R” jacks and the white plug for the “L” jacks.
Use an amplifier or receiver equipped with discrete audio signal
input jacks.
Connect the 6CH DISCRETE OUTPUT jacks of this unit to the
discrete audio input jacks of the amplifier or receiver so that each
channel output is correctly connected to the corresponding input,
that is “MAIN” to “MAIN”, “CENTER” to “CENTER”, “SURROUND”
to “SURROUND” and “SUBWOOFER” to “SUBWOOFER”.
If you use an amplifier or receiver (the Yamaha model
RX-V2090 etc.) which has only 5-channel discrete input jacks
without a SUBWOOFER input jack, no connection can be made
from the SUBWOOFER output jack of this unit to the amplifier (or
receiver).
In this case, select the MAIN position on the function “4.
LFE/BASS OUT”. (See page 15.)
CONNECTING WITH AN LD (DVD) PLAYER,
TV/SATELLITE TUNER, ETC.
Connect an LD player, DVD player, TV/Satellite tuner etc. which
outputs digital audio signals encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3)
to this unit. Two audio/video units can be connected to this unit.
Connect an audio/video unit (LD player, DVD player, etc.) to the
DVD/LD COAXIAL or OPTICAL digital signal input jack of this unit.
In the same way, connect another unit (TV/Satellite tuner, etc.) to
the TV/DBS COAXIAL or OPTICAL digital signal input jack of this
unit.
To make a connection between optical digital audio signal
jacks, remove the cover from each jack, and then connect them by
using a commercially available optical fiber cable that conforms to
EIAJ standards. Other cables might not function correctly.
Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the OPTICAL (or
COAXIAL) jack of this unit, you must keep the unit connected with
analog audio signal input jacks of the amplifier (or receiver),
because the 6 channel discrete signals cannot be recorded by a
tape deck or VCR connected to the amplifier (or receiver).
NOTE: Be sure to attach the covers when the OPTICAL jacks are
not being used, in order to protect the jacks from dust.
NOTE: All digital audio signal input jacks are applicable to the
sampling frequency of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.
