03 Connecting up Connecting other audio components The number and kind of connections depends on the kind of component you're connecting.1 Follow the steps below to connect a CD-R, MD, DAT, tape recorder or other audio component. 1 If your component has a digital output, connect this to a digital input on the receiver as shown. The example shows an optical connection to the DIGITAL OPT 1 (CD) input. 2 If necessary, connect the analog audio outputs of the component to a set of spare audio inputs on this receiver. You'll need to make this connection for components without a digital output, or if you want to record from a digital component. Use a stereo RCA phono cable as shown. 3 If you're connecting a recorder, connect the analog audio outputs to the analog audio inputs on the recorder. The example shows an analog connection to the CD-R/TAPE/MD analog output jack using a stereo RCA phono cable.
