remotes to any input button on the remote by follow-
ing the instructions for
shown on page 47.
4. Connect the analog left/right audio and composite
video or S-Video and analog left/right audio outputs
of a DVD player to the DVD Audio
Input Jacks ©I on the rear panel.
5. Connect the optical or coaxial digital audio outputs
of a DVD player satellite receiver cable box, HDTV
tuner or video game to any of the Optical or
Coaxial Digital Inputs ®† . The
recommended connection for a DVD player is to
use a coaxial digital link connected to the Coaxial
Digital
digital audio input assignment for any source using
the IN/OUT SETUP menu, as described
on page 23, or the Digital Input Selector
p on the front panel or remote as described on
page 37.
NOTE: When connecting a device such as a digital
cable box or other set-top tuner product with a digital
audio output, we recommend that you connect both
the digital and analog outputs of the product to your
A The audio input polling feature of the
then be able to make certain that you have a constant
audio feed, since it will automatically switch the audio
input to the analog jacks if the digital feed is interrupted
or not available for a particular channel.
6. If your DVD player has
nent video outputs connect them to the DVD
Component Video F. Although this set of
inputs may be assigned to any of the five video
inputs on the the factory default is for
this input to be assigned to the DVD
to make a digital audio connection between the
DVD player and the with the Coaxial Digital
Input 1 † being the factor For informa-
tion on changing the input assignments for either
the component video jacks or the DVD player’s
audio connection, see page 23.
7. If you have other devices with
component video outputs connect the source
device to the Component
GH. The audio connections may be made to
any of the analog left/right panel audio inputs or
the Optical or Coaxial Digital Inputs ®†
. M
inputs are properly configured for their analog or
digital audio connection source in the IN/OUT
SETUP menu, as described on page 23.
8. If the component video inputs are used, connect
the Component Video Monitor Outputs E to
the component video inputs of your projector
or other display device
9. If you have a camcorder video game or other
audio/video device that is connected to the
on a temporary rather than permanent, basis
connect the audio video and digital audio outputs
of that device to
the Front-Panel Inputs
. A device connected
here is
selected as the
inputs must be assigned to the
(See page 23 for more information on input
configuration.)
10 When connecting the A,
“HDTV compatible” or high-definition display (which
is any device capable of accepting an input signal of
480P or higher), you are able to take advantage of
the unit’s advanced video processing circuitry which
converts all video signals to a 480P output. Since
the 7300 displays the on-screen menus
with upconverted video the connection from the
A
of
Component E.
11. When connecting the
analog video display that has standard composite
and S-Video inputs only
may not be used. In this caseVideo
Monitor Output J to the matching composite
and S-Video inputs on your video display

source devices
NOTE: When source devices such as a progressive
scan DVD player or HDTV set-top box are connected to
the
also necessary to connect the standard, composite or
S-Video outputs of the source device to the
if you wish to take advantage of the record outputs or
have video routed to a second room. The record out-
puts and multiroom system cannot accept component
inputs nor are component inputs down-converted for
use with these outputs

Main Room Remote Control Extension
If the receiver is placed behind a solid or smoked
glass cabinet door the obstruction may prevent the
remote sensor from receiving commands In this
event, an optional remote sensor may be used.
Connect the output of the remote sensor to the
Remote IR Input D jack.
If other components are also prevented from receiving
remote commands only one sensor is needed. Simply
use this unit’s sensor or a remote eye by running a
connection from the Remote IR Output C jack to
the Remote IR Input jack on Harman Kardon (or other
compatible) equipment.
Multiroom IR Link
The remote room IR receiver should be connected to
the Multiroom IR Input B jack on the A
rear panel.
If other Harman Kardon-compatible source equipment
is part of the main room installation, the Remote IR
Output
C
jack on the rear panel should be connected
to the IR IN jack on source equipment. This will enable
the remote room location to control source equipment
functions
NOTE: All remotely controlled components must be
linked together in a IR OUT
jack of one unit to the IR IN of the next to establish
this chain.
Multiroom Connections
The
that allow it to send an audio and/or video source to a
remote zone that is different from the one selected for
use in the main room. Please note that this capability
applies to analog inputs from sources such as the
A tape decks or
source such as a DVD or CD player that is normally
connected via a digital connection, it is necessary to
run an analog connection from the source to the
or to use the Main Downmix input option, as explained
on page 44.
Depending on your system’s requirement,
three options are available for remote room audio
connection:
Option 1: Use high-quality
nect cable from the
remote room. In the remote room, connect the inter-
connect cable to an optioinal external stereo power
amplifier The amplifier will be connected to the room’s
speakers At the A plug the audio intercon-
nect cables into the Multiroom Audio Outputs ø
on the 7300’s rear panel.
Option 2: Connect the Multiroom Audio
ø on the 7300 to the inputs of an optional
stereo power amplifier Run high-quality speaker wire
from the amplifier to the speakers in the remote room.
Option 3: T
in seven-channel amplifier it is possible to use two of
the amplifier channels to power speakers in the remote
room. When using this option, you will not be able to
