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 u?
• Connecting an Onkyo
u-capable component to the CD/HDD receiver via u 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 u, the CD/HDD receiver will automatically select it as
the input source.
• When you start playback on the component connected via u, 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 u will also
go on Standby.
Notes:
•No u cable is included with the CD/HDD receiver. Use u cables supplied with other Onkyo components.
•Use u jacks for a combined use with u-capable components.
•Some u-capable components have two u jacks. They’re both the same, so you can use either one. The extra jack is for
connecting additional u-capable components.
Connecting Other Components
Connecting Onkyo u Components
First connect each Onkyo component to the CD/HDD receiver with an analog audio cable (RCA) as described above.
Next, make the necessary u connections with an u cable (see illustration below). Finally, change the Input Display
to the corresponding component name (see page 45).
