Connecting your Receiver

the equipment you already have, such as a TV and Video Cassette Recorder
(VCR).
There are many connection options of which the most common are:
a. To a TV only, using a coaxial cable.
b. To a TV only, using a Euroconnector.
C. To a TV and a VCR, using Euroconnectors.
d. To a TV and a VCR using coaxial cables.
Option B is the best if you have a TV only because it gives the best picture
and sound quality. You will obtain even better sound if you connect the
Receiver to your hi-fi system. See Additional Connections section of this
