usually marked with a stripe or some other identifier.
All you need to do is to connect the marked wire to
the positive (+) terminals on the DRX-730 and
speakers, and connect the unmarked wire to the
negative (–) terminals. If you get them crossed over,
your speakers will be out of phase and the sound will
be unnatural and lack bass, so take care.

the end of each wire, and twist the exposed
strands together to prevent possible short
circuits.

Connecting a TV
You ca n connect the DRX-730 to a TV by using any
one of four different connection types: HDMI,
component video, or composite video. The type you
choose will depend on the connections supported by
your TV. Refer to your TV owner’s manual for details.
HDMI provides the best picture quality. Component
video offers the next best picture quality and the
DRX-730’s component video output supports
progressive scanning for even better picture quality. If
your TV doesn’t support HDMI or component video,
use composite video. Some DRX-730 models have a
SCART jack that can output composite video or RGB
component video.
Notes:
•Do not connect the power cable to the DRX-730
until all other connections have been completed.
•Turn off your TV before connecting it to the
DRX-730.
Tip:
•If your TV has an audio output, you can connect it
to the DRX-730’s AUX IN jacks and listen to your
favorite TV programs through the speakers
connected to the DRX-730.
Composite video connection
If your TV doesn’t support HDMI or component
video, you can connect the DRX-730 to your TV with
the supplied video pin cable.
Use the supplied video pin cable to connect the
DRX-730’s VIDEO OUT jack to a composite video
input on your TV.
Component video connection
If your TV supports component video but not HDMI,
you can connect the DRX-730 to your TV with a
component video cable. This will provide better
picture quality than a composite video connection.
Using a component video cable (sold separately),
connect the DRX-730’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT
jacks to a component video input on your TV.

■ About HDMI
HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia
Interface. An extension of the DVI (Digital Video
Interface) standard used to connect computer
displays, HDMI was designed as the next generation
digital interface standard for TVs and AV equipment,
allowing uncompressed digital video and digital
audio in various formats to be delivered on a single
cable. With HDMI, separate cables for video and
audio connections are no longer necessary. And
because it’s digital, it delivers unimpaired high quality
video and audio. In addition, HDMI supports the
HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection)
system that’s used to protect copyrighted video and
audio content from illegal copying.
2
* If your HDMI-compatible TV does not support the above
resolutions, the picture may not display correctly.
* The DRX-730 is designed to be connected to an HDMI
component. If it’s connected to a DVI component, normal
operation may not be possible depending on the DVI
component.

Looking after discs
Storing discs
Always keep discs in their cases and store them
vertically in a place that’s not subject to extreme
temperatures, extreme humidity, or direct sunlight.
Always read the precautions supplied with the discs.
Handling discs
•Always hold discs by the edge to protect them
against fingerprints, scratches, and dirt.
•Discs with fingerprints, scratches, or dirt may not
play properly. In such cases, using a soft, dry
cleaning cloth, wipe the disc from the center
outward in straight lines. Do not wipe the disc in a
circular motion, as this may damage it. Never use
a dirty cleaning cloth.
About specially shaped discs
The DRX-730 cannot play discs with a special shape,
such as heart and hexagonal-shaped discs. Such discs
may cause a malfunction, so do not load them.
Cleaning the pickup lens
If dirt or dust collects on the DRX-730’s pickup lens,
the sound may jump or the picture may be disturbed.
In such cases, contact your Yamaha dealer. Do not use
commercially available pickup lens cleaners, as they
may damage the lens.
•For very dirty discs, try using a soft, damp cloth,
and be sure to dry the disc afterward. Never use
benzine, thinner, or other cleaning agents, such as
those designed for cleaning vinyl records.
•Do not load badly damaged, cracked, or warped
discs into the DRX-730, as they may damage it.
•Do not affix stickers or labels to discs, as they may
cause the disc to warp and become unplayable.
Rental discs often have stickers or labels attached.
Make sure there’s no glue jutting out from behind
the label before playing such discs.
•Do not load more than one disc in the DRX-730
at a time.
•For more details on disc handling, refer to the
precautions supplied with the disc.
