Connections—Continued
The following diagram shows how to connect other components (i.e., a cassette deck, an MD recorder, a CD recorder)
and an Onkyo RI Dock (Remote Interactive Dock). If Audyssey EQ™ is active, you cannot perform recording (except
for timer recording) to an external component. Deactivate Audyssey EQ™ when you want to record to an external
component (see page 26).
Connecting an MD recorder or cassette deck
Connect the CD/HDD receiver’s
MD/TAPE
OUT jacks to the INPUT (REC) jacks of the MD recorder or cassette deck.
Connect the CD/HDD receiver’s MD/TAPE IN jacks to the OUTPUT (PLAY) jacks of the MD recorder or cassette deck.
Connecting a CD recorder or an Onkyo RI Dock
Connect the CD/HDD receiver’s DOCK/CDR OUT jacks to the AUDIO INPUT jacks of the CD recorder or Onkyo RI
Dock.
Connect the CD/HDD receiver’s DOCK/CDR IN jacks to the AUDIO OUTPUT jacks of the CD recorder or Onkyo RI
Dock.
What can you do with ?
• Connecting an Onkyo
-capable component to the CD/HDD receiver via cable allows you to control the com-
ponent
with the CD/HDD receiver’s remote controller.
• When playback is started on the
component connected via , the CD/HDD receiver will automatically select it as
the input source.
• When you start playback on the component connected via , if the CD/HDD receiver is on Standby, it will auto-
matically turn on. Similarly, when the CD/HDD receiver is set to Standby, all components connected via will also
go on Standby.
Notes:
•No cable is included with the CD/HDD receiver. Use cables supplied with other Onkyo components.
•Use jacks for a combined use with -capable components.
•Some -capable components have two jacks. They’re both the same, so you can use either one. The extra jack is for
connecting additional -capable components.
Connecting Other Components
Connecting Onkyo Components
First connect each Onkyo component to the CD/HDD receiver with an analog audio cable (RCA) as described above.
Next, make the necessary connections with an cable (see illustration below). Finally, change the Input Display
to the corresponding component name (see page 45).
