Refer to the diagram above for the following connection examples. 1. Connecting a turntable (PHONO) Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the output terminal on the turntable to the PHONO input jacks on the TXDS595. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack. Note: The TX-DS595 is designed for use with moving magnet cartridges. For proper operation, connect a ground (or earth) wire to the GND terminal. For some turntables, however, connecting the ground wire may cause increased noise, and in such a case, a ground wire is not necessary and should not be connected. 2. Connecting a compact disc player (CD) Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the output terminal on the compact disc player to the CD input jacks on the TXDS595. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack. If the compact disc player has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS595 depending on the type of connector on the compact disc player. With the initial settings of the TX-DS595, the CD input source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 1 jack. If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be changed at the setup menu: Input Setup → Audio Setup → Digital Input (see page 29). 3. Connecting a cassette tape deck, MD recorder, DAT deck, or CD recorder (TAPE) Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the output terminals (PLAY) of the device to the TAPE IN jacks on the TXDS595 and the input terminals (REC) to the TAPE OUT jacks. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack. If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS595 depending on the type of connector on the device. With the initial settings of the TX-DS595, the TAPE input source is set for no digital input. If you connect the device to the DIGITAL INPUT terminal, then this input source must be set for digital input at the setup menu: Input Setup → Audio Setup → Digital Input (see page 29). 11
