  • Page 12 TAPE 2 MAIN MAIN CH MAIN LEVEL MAIN CH — MAIN IN terminals These terminals are for line input to the built-in main channel amplifier. Leave the jumper bars connected to the PRE OUT terminals when you use the built-in amplifier. However, if you drive main speakers with an external stereo power amplifier, remove the jumper bars.
  • Page 13 CONNECTING S VIDEO TERMINALS If your video cassette recorder, video disc player, monitor, etc., is equipped with “S” (high-resolution) video terminals, connect them to this unit’s S VIDEO terminals. Otherwise, use the composite video terminals of the unit. Note: • If video signals are sent to both the S VIDEO input and composite input terminals, the input signals will be sent to the respective S VIDEO output and composite output terminals independently.
  • Page 14 • A video monitor for the second room. Note Since there are so many ways to connect and use your RX-V2090 in a multi-room installation, we recommend that you consult with a custom installation specialist for the Room 2 connections which will best meet your require- ments.
  • Page 15: Antenna Connections

    ANTENNA CONNECTIONS • Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following diagram. • Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one.
