Notes
Do not place objects on the unit as they may interfere with proper ventilation.
• Follow the rules for digital recording (see page 67).
• Audio plugs must be connected securely. Incomplete connection will not reproduce 
sound.
• Do not bundle the audio connection cables with the speaker cords. This may impair the 
sound quality.
• If the TV screen and the unit interfere with each other, put more distance between the 
speakers and the TV set.
Connecting an Onkyo stereo cas-
sette tape deck
The following diagram illustrates how to connect an optional 
Onkyo stereo cassette tape deck. Connect the FR-N3X 
CDR/TAPE OUT (REC) jacks to the tape deck’s INPUT 
(REC) jacks, and the FR-N3X CDR/TAPE INPUT (PLAY) 
jacks to the tape deck’s OUTPUT (PLAY) jacks.
What does connecting an Onkyo stereo cassette 
tape deck using an 
 cable enable you to do?
• To operate the 
 system, you need to change the 
source name in the display to TAPE (see page 65). (The 
default source name in the display is CD-R.)
• You can operate an Onkyo stereo cassette tape deck 
using the supplied remote controller. (You also need to 
connect the audio pin cable.)
• When you start playing a tape, the unit input selector will 
automatically switch to the stereo cassette tape deck 
(TAPE).
• Synchro recording operations (see page 33).
