The audio return channel (ARC) function lets an 
HDMI-capable TV send the audio stream to the 
HDMI OUT jack of the receiver. To use this function, 
you must select the TV/CD input selector and your 
TV must support the ARC function.

Connect your components to the appropriate jacks. 
The default input assignments are shown below.To 
change assignments, see “Setting up Component 
input (Component menu)” on page 19.
Connect to a turntable (MM) that has a phono preamp built-in. If your 
turntable (MM) does not have a built-in preamp, you will need a 
commercially available phono preamp.
If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge, you will need a 
commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer as well as a 
phono preamp. See your turntable’s manual for details.
