AUX (auxiliary) component

An additional MD player, cassette tape or analog turntable with built-in equalizer (such as the

P-110) which are available separately can optionally be connected to the system using an

audio cable with stereo mini-plugs (option).

÷ When recording an AUX component, also read the instruction manual of the component.

÷ When an analog turntable is connected and located in proximity of the system, howling noise may

interfere with the system when the listening volume is increased. In this case, install the analog

turntable farther apart from the system.

÷ The input level from the AUX component can be adjusted on this system. (page 29)
