Quick Start Guide No Frills Setup This receiver was designed with the easiest possible setup in mind so if you just want to hook up your equipment and start enjoying quality home theater movies follow the four steps below and use these easy settings on the VSX-C300/ C300-S. In most cases you can leave the receiver in the default settings. Default Settings: • Speaker Setting: Automatically sensed by the receiver • Input Setting: DVD • Analog/Digital Signal Select: Digital has priority but analog will play automatically if it is the only signal • Listening Mode: AUTO 1) Hook up your DVD player, speakers, subwoofer and TV. First, look on the back of your DVD player and figure out if it has an optical output (if you're not sure consult the manual that came with your DVD player). If it does hook up your DVD player to this receiver with this digital terminal. If your DVD player doesn't have an optical digital output hook the player up with the analog terminals. Then, hook up the speakers you want to use with this receiver. This receiver can be used with just two speakers but it's better to have five speakers to get accurate surround sound. See page 14 for more details on connecting your speakers. Next, hook up your powered subwoofer, if you have one. For all speakers make sure to connect the positive (+) and negative (-)terminals on the receiver and speakers with the same wire (positive to positive, negative to negative). Before hooking up your speakers affix the color-coded sticker with the appropriate name (for example, "front right") to the speaker wire so you always know which speaker that wire is connected to.
