cable.

About the video converter

The video converter ensures that all video

sources are output through all of the MONITOR

VIDEO OUT jacks. The only exception is HDMI:

since this resolution cannot be downsampled,

you must connect your monitor/TV to the

receiver’s HDMI output when connecting this

video source.

If several video components are assigned to

the same input function (see The Input Setup

menu on page 24 ), the converter gives priority

to HDMI, component, then composite (in that

order).

Bi-wiring your speakers

Your speakers can also be bi-wired if they sup-

port bi-amping.

! With these connections, the Speaker System

setting makes no difference.

CAUTION

! Don’t connect different speakers from the

same terminal in this way.

! When bi-wiring as well, heed the cautions for

bi-amping shown above.

% To bi-wire a speaker, connect two

speaker cords to the speaker terminal on

the receiver.
