Connecting your equipment
Connecting a satellite/cable receiver or other set-top box
Satellite and cable receivers, and terrestrial digital TV tuners are all examples of so-called ‘set-top
boxes’.
When you set up the receiver you’ll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the set-top
box to (see
The Input Setup menu
on Operating Instructions in CD-ROM).

VSX-1021 only:
If your set-top box is equipped with an HDMI output terminal, we recommend connecting it to the
receiver’s
HDMI
IN 1
terminal. When doing so, also connect the receiver and TV by HDMI (see
Connecting using HDMI
on page 11 ).
Connecting other audio components
This receiver has both digital and analog inputs, allowing you to connect audio components for
playback.
When you set up the receiver you’ll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the compo-
nent to (see also

If you’re connecting a recorder, connect the analog audio outputs to the analog audio inputs on the
recorder.
!
If your turntable has line-level outputs (i.e., it has a built-in phono pre-amp), connect it to the
CD
inputs instead.
