To make the most of the SR+ features, you should
connect your source components (DVD player, etc.) in a
slightly different way to that described in this chapter. For
each component, connect the video output directly to the
plasma display, and just connect the audio (analog and/
or digital) to this receiver.
Caution
• When the receiver is connected to a plasma display
using an SR+ cable, if the plasma display is switched
off, you cannot use the remote to control the receiver.
