Connecting Your Equipment
Video Components
Connect your video components to the jacks as shown below. Regarding a DVD there are two types of
connections to make. Hook up your video signal with either component video, S-video, or composite video cords
(the quality descends in this order) but remember, the video component you are watching and your TV must be
hooked up with same type of video cord or you won't be able to see the picture. For the audio signal, order to use
Dolby Digital/DTS you must hook up a digital input. It is also a good idea to hook up your DVD components with
analog audio connections as well, since some DVDs may not have a digital audio track. To cover all possible laser
discs a DVD/LD player or LD player requires an analog connection and two digital connections (a coaxial or optical
and a specialized 2 RF connection shown at the very top of the first diagram below).
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC
outlet.

component video output on your
DVD player as well. See you DVD

If your video components have S-video jacks,
you could use S-video cords (not supplied) to connect
them on the back of the receiver. These jacks are
labeled by the Japanese designation “S2“ on the VSX-
909RDS/909RDS-G but they are simply S-video jacks.

However, if you use S-video cords for your video hook
ups you must also hook up your TV with S-video
connections. Conversely, if you use regular composite
video cords for video hook ups, you should use them
for your TV as well.
