10 REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

¡ AM Antenna: Connect the AM loop antenna
supplied with the receiver to these terminals. If an
external AM antenna is used, make connections to
the AM and GND terminals in accordance with
the instructions supplied with the antenna.

™ FM Antenna: Connect the supplied indoor or
an optional external FM antenna to this terminal.

£ 6-Channel Direct Inputs: If an external
digital audio decoder is used, connect the
outputs of that decoder to these jacks.

¢ CD Inputs: Connect these jacks to the ana-
log output of a compact disc player or CD
changer.

∞ Component Monitor Outputs: Connect
these outputs to the component video inputs of
a video projector or monitor. When a source
connected to one of the two Component
Video Inputs §¶ is selected the signal will
be sent to these jacks.

§ Video 2 Component Video Inputs:
Connect the Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs of
a set top converter box or other video source to
these jacks.

¶ DVD Component Video Inputs: Connect
the Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs of a DVD
player to these jacks.

Note: All component inputs/outputs can be
used for RGB signals too, in the same way as
described for the Y/Pr/Pb signals, then connected
to the jacks with the corresponding color.
But this is only true as long as only the three
RGB lines are used and not any sync signal is
output separately from the source.

• Tape Inputs: Connect these jacks to the
PLAY/OUT jacks of an audio recorder.

ª Speaker Outputs: Connect these jacks to
the matching + or – terminals on your speakers.
When making speaker connections, always make
certain to maintain correct polarity by connect-
ing the red (+) terminals on the AVR to the red
terminals on the speaker and the black (–) ter-
minals on the AVR to the black terminals on the
speakers. (See page 15 for more information on
speaker polarity.)

‚ Tape Outputs: Connect these jacks to the
RECORD/INPUT jacks of an audio recorder.

⁄ Amplifier Inputs: When the jumper pins
that link the Preamp Outputs fl with these
inputs are removed, these jacks may be used to
connect any external 5.1 channel source (or 2
channel source, if only Main Inputs are used),
e.g. processors, to the internal amplifiers. (See
page 18 for more information on using these
connections.)

 Unswitched AC Accessory Outlet: This
outlet may be used to power any AC device. The
power will remain on at this outlet regardless of
whether the AVR 7000 is on or off (in Standby),
provided that the Main Power switch 1 is on.

‹ Switched AC Accessory Outlet: This out-
let may be used to power any device that you
wish to have turn on when the unit is turned on
with the System Power Control switch 2.

Note: The power consumption of the device
plugged into each of these outlets ¤‹ must
not exceed 100 watts.

› AC Power Cord: Connect the AC plug to an
unswitched AC wall output.

fi Subwoofer Output: Connect this jack to
the line-level input of a powered subwoofer. If
an external subwoofer amplifier is used, connect
this jack to the subwoofer amplifier input.

fl Preamp Outputs: When the jumper pins
that link the Amplifier Inputs ⁄ with these
outputs are removed, these jacks may be con-
nected to an external power amplifier.

‡ Digital Audio Outputs: Connect these
jacks to the matching digital input connector on
a digital recorder such as a CD-R or MiniDisc
recorder.

° Coaxial Digital Inputs: Connect the coax
digital output from a DVD player, HDTV receiver,
LD player, MD player or CD player to these jacks.
The signal may be either a Dolby Digital signal,
DTS signal or a standard PCM digital source.

· Optical Digital Inputs: Connect the opti-
cal digital output from a DVD player, HDTV
receiver, LD player, MD player or CD player to
these jacks. The signal may be either a Dolby
Digital signal, a DTS signal or a standard PCM
digital source.

a Remote IR Output: This connection permits
the IR sensor in the receiver to serve other
remote controlled devices. Connect this jack to
the “IR IN” jack on Harman Kardon or other
compatible equipment.

b Multiroom IR Input: Connect the output of
an IR sensor in a remote room to this jack to
operate the AVR 7000’s multiroom control system.

c Remote IR Input: If the AVR 7000’s front-
panel IR sensor is blocked due to cabinet doors
or other obstructions, an external IR sensor
may be used. Connect the output of the sensor
to this jack.

d Multiroom Outputs: Connect these jacks
to the optional audio power amplifiers or video
display devices to view and listen to the source
selected by the mulitroom system in a remote
room.

e Video Monitor Outputs: Connect these
jacks to the composite or S-Video input of a TV
monitor or video projector to view the on-screen
menus and the output of any video source select-
ed by the receiver’s video switcher.

f Video 3 Inputs: Connect these jacks to the
audio and video outputs of a TV tuner, Cable TV
converter box, satellite receiver or another
audio/video source.

g Video 2 Inputs: Connect these jacks to the
audio and video outputs of a TV Tuner, Cable TV
converter box, satellite receiver or any other
audio/video source.

h Video 1 Outputs: Connect these jacks to
the audio and video RECORD/INPUT jacks of a
VCR.

i Video 1 Inputs: Connect these jacks to the
audio and video PLAY/OUT jacks of a VCR.

j DVD Inputs: Connect the analog audio
outputs and composite or S-video output of a
DVD or LD player to these jacks.

Note: Connect either the Video or S-Video out-
put of any S-Video source to AVR7000, but
never both at the same time, otherwise video
quality may be distorted or reduced.
