Connecting the DVD Player to the
Receiver
Connect the DVD player to the receiver as shown in the main
diagram, using the supplied cables. You can plug the DVD players
power cord into one of the receivers switched AC outlets.
Optical Digital Cable
The optical digital cable carries the digital audio bitstream to the
receiver for decoding. Remove the caps from the optical digital
jacks on the receiver and DVD player and store them for future
use. Insert the optical cables connectors all the way into the jacks
until they click into place. Do not allow the optical cable to
become kinked or bent.
Audio/Video Cable
The audio/video cable carries the standard analog audio and
composite video signals to the receiver. Use the red and white
wires for the audio connections and the yellow wire for the video
connection.
S-Video Connections
If your TV or monitor has an S-Video input you can use an
optional S-Video cable to connect the DVD player to the receiver.
If you use an S-Video cable to connect the DVD player to the
receiver you do not need to use the yellow video wire in the
Audio/Video Cable, but you must also use an S-Video cable to
connect the receiver to the TV or monitor. S-Video connections
offer improved video quality over standard composite video con-
nections.
