You can use composite video cables or S-video cables for video
connection. By using the S-video cable, you can get better picture
quality.
• If your video components have digital output terminal, also
connect them using the digital terminals explained in “Digital
connection” (see page 9). By using these terminals, you can get
better sound quality.
CAUTIONS:
• The video signals from one type of input terminals are
transmitted only through the video output terminals of the same
type. Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing
video component are connected to the receiver through the
video terminals of different type, you cannot record the picture.
In addition, if the TV and a playing video component are
connected to the receiver through the video terminals of
different type, you cannot view the playback picture on the TV.
• If you connect a sound-enhancing device such as a graphic
equalizer between the source components and this receiver, the
sound output through this receiver may be distorted.
