AM/FM Tuner
See Figure 11
Digital audio connection: If using an
HD Radio or other digital tuner, connect the
digital output of the tuner to any one of the
DIGITAL IN OPTICAL 1–4 or DIGITAL IN CO-
AXIAL 1–3 inputs on the RSP-1069.
: Use the INPUT SETUP screen to assign
NOTE
the digital input to TUNER source.
Analog audio connection: If using an
analog AM/FM tuner or if you want to record
the audio signal from the tuner, connect the
left and right analog outputs from the tuner to
the pair of audio input jacks labeled TUNER
on the RSP-1069. Make sure that you connect
the right channel to the R input jack and the
left channel to the L input jack.
There are typically no video connections for
an AM/FM tuner and no video input is as-
signed by default.
Audio Recorder
See Figure 10
Connect the left and right analog outputs
from an audio tape deck to the TAPE IN jacks
(left and right).
Connect the left/right TAPE OUT jacks to the
inputs on the audio tape deck.
Optional: For a digital recording device,
connect the digital output of the recorder to
one of the OPTICAL IN or COAXIAL IN digital
inputs on the RSP-1069. Use the INPUT SET-
UP screen to assign that digital input to the
TAPE source. If the recording device accepts
a digital recording input, connect one of the
OPTICAL OUT or COAXIAL OUT connections
to the digital input of the recorder.
No video connections are required for an
audio recording device.

Video Recorder
See Figure 8
VCR connections can be made to the VID-
EO 1 or VIDEO 2. If you choose VIDEO 1,
make sure that you use VIDEO 1 inputs and
outputs for all analog audio and video con-
nections.
S-Video connections: Connect an S-Vid-
eo cable from the output of the VCR to the S-
VIDEO IN 1 or 2 input. Connect an S-Video
cable from the S-VIDEO OUT 1 or 2 jack to
the VCR inputs.
Composite connections: Connect an
RCA video cable from the output of the VCR
to the COMPOSITE IN 1 or 2 input. Connect
an RCA video cable from the COMPOSITE
OUT 1 or 2 jack to the VCR inputs.
Audio Connections: Connect the left and
right analog outputs from the VCR to either
the VIDEO IN 1 or VIDEO IN 2 audio inputs.
Connect the left and right VIDEO OUT 1 or
VIDEO OUT 2 audio outputs to the analog
inputs on the VCR.
Optional Digital Audio: For a digital
recording device, connect the digital output
of the recorder to one of the OPTICAL IN or
COAXIAL IN digital inputs on the RSP-1069.
Use the INPUT SETUP screen to assign that
digital input to the VIDEO source (VIDEO 1,
2, or 3) used for the previous connections.
If the recording device accepts a digital re-
cording input, connect one of the OPTICAL
OUT or COAXIAL OUT connections to the
digital input of the recorder.
DVD-A or SACD Player
See Figure 6
In most cases, DVD-A, SACD, and other ex-
ternal multichannel processors are connect-
ed to the RSP-1069 by sending decoded
analog audio signals using RCA cables. A
DVD-A player with HDMI outputs can send
digital signals directly to the RSP-1069 for
decoding.
Analog Connections:
To hook up a DVD-A, an SACD player (or any
external surround decoder) with analog con-
nections, use audio RCA cables to connect the
outputs of the player to the RCA jacks labeled
MULTI INPUT, making sure that you observe
proper channel consistency, i.e. connect the
right front channel to the FRONT R input, etc.
Depending on your system confi guration, make
six connections (FRONT L & R, SURROUND
L & R, CENTER, and SUBWOOFER), seven
connections (adding a CENTER BACK con-
nection), or eight connections (adding two
CENTER BACK connections).
The MULTI inputs are analog bypass inputs,
passing signals directly through to the Vol-
ume Control and preamp outputs, bypassing
all of the digital processing. The RSP-1069
provides an optional bass redirect feature
that duplicates the seven main channels and
passes them through an analog 100 Hz low
pass fi lter, creating a summed mono sub-
woofer output derived from the main chan-
nels. See the INPUT SETUP menu in the Set-
up section of this manual for details on bass
redirect feature.
Digital HDMI Connection:
If the DVD-A player has HDMI outputs, simply
connect an HDMI cable to the output of the
player to one of the HDMI 1–4 inputs on the
RSP-1069. This cable sends the video signal
from the player along with a digital audio
signal. The DVD-A multichannel decoding is
handled by the RSP-1069.
HDTV Monitor
See Figure 4
A key feature of the RSP-1069 is that it can
send a video signal to any HDTV monitor in
exactly the format that best matches the na-
tive mode and resolution of the TV.
Digital HDTVs, such as LCD and plasma fl at-
screens, display digital signals directly. These
TVs should be connected to the RSP-1069 us-
ing the HDMI digital outputs.
Analog HDTVs, such as CRT and rear-projec-
tion sets, display analog signals. Although
these can be connected with an HDMI ca-
ble, these TVs should generally be connect-
ed with analog Component Video cables to
avoid an unnecessary digital-to-analog con-
version in the TV.
: Do not connect HDMI and Component
NOTE
Video outputs to a monitor simultaneously,
as the two video image signals may affect
each other.;
