02 Connecting up Important • Compared to existing digital audio transmission formats (optical and coaxial), HDMI format digital audio transmissions requires a longer time to be recognized. Due to this, interruption in the audio may occur when switching between formats or beginning playback. Additionally, turning on/off the component connected to this unit's HDMI OUT terminal or disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable may cause noise or interrupted audio. Analog audio cables Use stereo RCA phono cables to connect analog audio components. These cables are typically red and white, and you should connect the red plugs to R (right) terminals and white plugs to L (left) terminals. Digital audio cables Commercially available coaxial digital audio cables or optical cables should be used to connect digital components to this system.1 Coaxial digital audio cable Optical cable • A cap has been factory-attached to the connector on the accessory optical digital cable. Be sure to remove the cap before connecting the cable. Standard RCA video cables These cables are the most common type of video connection and are used to connect to the composite video terminals. The yellow plugs distinguish them from cables for audio. Note 1 • When connecting optical cables, be careful when inserting the plug not to damage the shutter protecting the optical socket. • When storing optical cable, coil loosely. The cable may be damaged if bent around sharp corners. • You can also use a standard RCA video cable for coaxial digital connections. 34 En
