2. CONNECTING AUDIO COMPONENTS
Note:
• Do not connect the turntable with MC type cartridge directly. If you have it, use a separate head amplifier or set-up
transformer.
3. CONNECTING VIDEO COMPONENTS
• There are three types of video jacks ( COMPONENT, S-VIDEO, (composite) VIDEO ) for connecting video components.
Connect them to the corresponding video jacks according to their capability.
• For your reference, the excellence in picture quality is as follows : “COMPONENT” >“S-VIDEO”>(composite) “VIDEO” .
• When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect “Y” to “Y” , “CB” to “CB” (or “B-Y” , “PB”) and “CR” to “CR” (or “R-Y” ,
“PR” ).
• When connecting to video recording component such as video deck, DVD recorder, etc . or TV for ROOM 2, you must use
the same type of video jacks that you did connect to video playback components such as DVD player, LD player, etc.
• This unit is equipped with a function that up-converts composite video or S-Video signals to component video signals or down-
converts S-Video signals to composite video signals and outputs them from the MONITOR OUTs. Because of this, one of
three types of MONITOR OUT jacks can be connected to the monitor TV regardless of how the video components are
connected to VIDEO IN jacks of this unit.
• Connect the video components, referring to the following table.
Relationship between the video input signal and video output signal
Notes :
• In such a case of making only COMPONENT VIDEO connections between this unit and video component, while viewing a
movie via MONITOR COMPONENT OUTs, if the OSD menu operation is performed with the OSD, CURSOR control(▲, ▼,
◀, ▶), ENTER buttons, etc., the picture is automatically turned off and only the OSD menu is displayed.
• When S-Video signals and composite video signals are input into this unit, even though the OSD menu operation is
performed, the OSD menu cannot be displayed via MONITOR (composite) VIDEO OUT.
• When Sherwood DVD player such as V-756 , etc. is connected to the DIGI-LINK jack for system control, you should connect
the DVD player to the “ VIDEO 2” jacks of this unit.
Because, if the PLAY button, etc. is pressed on the DVD player, the VIDEO 2 is automatically selected as an input source on
this unit. Then playback, etc. starts.
