upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
product.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against

1. CONNECTING ANTENNAS
FM Outdoor Antenna
FM Indoor Antenna
• Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you
get the best reception of your favorite FM stations.
• A 75Ω outdoor FM antenna may be used to fur-
ther improve the reception. Disconnect the indoor
antenna before replacing it with the outdoor one.
AM Outdoor Antenna
AM Loop Antenna
AM Loop Antenna
• Place the AM loop antenna as far as possible
from the receiver, TV set, speaker cords and
the AC input cord and set it to a direction for
the best reception.
• If the reception is poor with the AM loop anten-
na, an AM outdoor antenna can be used in
place of the AM loop antenna.

• The TAPE MONITOR IN/OUT jacks may also be connected to the LINE OUT/IN jacks of an optional graphic equalizer.
3. CONNECTING VIDEO COMPONENTS
• There are three types of video jacks (COMPONENT, S-VIDEO, COMPOSITE) 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” .
• 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.

• When S-Video signals and composite video signals are input into this receiver, even though the OSD menu operation is
performed, the OSD menu cannot be displayed via MONITOR COMPOSITE OUT.
• When sherwood DVD player such as V-768, 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.

• When using only one surround back speaker, connect the SURROUND BACK LEFT jack to the power amplifier.
• If this is the case, you can connect the subwoofer without built-in amplifier to SURROUND BACK RIGHT terminals of the
power amplifier.(For details, refer to “When selecting the SUBWOOFER” on page 49.)
• To emphasize the deep bass sounds, connect a powered subwoofer.
• To enjoy deeper bass sounds, connect an additional powered subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER 2 jack.
Notes :
• After installing the speakers , first adjust the speaker settings according to your environment and speaker layout (For details,

• Be sure to connect speakers firmly and correctly according to the channel(left and right) and the polarity(+ and -). If the
connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connection is incorrect, the
sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
• For installing the speakers, refer to “Speaker placement” on page 11.
• After installing the speakers, first adjust the speaker settings according to your environment and speaker layout.(For details,
refer to “SETTING THE SPEAKER SETUP” on page 45.)
• You can connect the surround and the surround back speakers with various combinations according to the usage purpose.
Surround speakers A and B
• This unit allows you to connect two different sets of surround speakers and to place them in the appropriate locations in your
room, resulting in enjoying both movie soundtracks and music listening with optimum surround sound and no compromise.
• However, if you have only a set of surround speakers , connect them to either SURROUND A or SURROUND B SPEAKER
terminals according to your taste.
Surround back speakers
• When using only one surround back speaker, you should connect it to SURROUND BACK LEFT channel. In this case , you
can connect a subwoofer without built-in amplifier to SURROUND BACK RIGHT channel.(For details, refer to “When selecting
the SUBWOOFER” on page 49.)
• If you assign the power amplifier for the surround back channels to the ROOM 2, this unit can drive the speakers in another
room (ROOM 2).
(For details, refer to “ROOM 2 connections” on page 12. and “SETTING THE POWER AMP ASSIGN” on page 45.)
Caution :
• For safe amplifier operation , in case of using either surround A or surround B speakers, use all the speakers with impedance
of over 6 ohms. However, in case of using both surround A and surround B speakers, use only these speakers with
impedance of over 12 ohms and other speakers with impedance of over 6 ohms.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or the
speakers.
