Connecting a TV and playback components
Connecting using HDMI
If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped component 
(Blu-ray Disc player, etc.), you can connect it to this receiver 
using a commercially available HDMI cable.
The following connection/setting is required to listen to the 
sound of the TV over this receiver.
-
If the TV does not support the HDMI Audio Return 
Channel function, connect the receiver and TV with audio 
cables (as shown).
-
If the TV supports the HDMI Audio Return Channel 
function, the sound of the TV is input to the receiver via 
the HDMI terminal, so there is no need to connect an 
audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON 
(see 
The HDMI Setup menu on page 33
).
Important
If the receiver is connected to a TV using an HDMI cable, 
the on-screen display (OSD) will not be displayed. Be sure 
to use a standard RCA analog video cable to connect. In 
this case, switch the TV input to analog to see the OSD 
screen (for setup, etc.) on the TV.
When the ARC function is ON and the receiver is 
connected to a compatible TV with an HDMI cable, and you 
switch the input of the TV to composite, the input of the 
receiver may automatically switch to TV. If this happens, 
switch the receiver’s input back to the original input, or turn 
OFF
 the ARC function (see 
The HDMI Setup menu on 
page 33
).
Note
In order to listen to the audio from the TV that is connected 
to this receiver using an analog audio cables, set-up for 
analog audio input is required (see 
The Input Assign menu 
on page 32
).
