INSTALLATION
Figure 26 – Connecting a Composite or S-Video Recorder
To make two-channel digital audio recordings, connect the recorder’s
digital audio output to one of the Optical or Coaxial Inputs, and con-
nect the AVR’s Coaxial Digital Audio Output to the recorder’s coaxial
input. The AVR will convert an optical digital audio input signal to the
proper format for recording via the Coaxial Digital Audio Output. See
Figure 26.
Connect a Cable TV, Satellite, HDTV or Other Set-Top
Box for Broadcast Television
NOTE: If the TV has a digital audio output, connect it to one of
the digital audio inputs. If you use a direct cable connection to
your TV, or an antenna connection with the TV’s internal tuner,
connect either the TV’s digital audio output (if available) or its analog
audio outputs to the AVR. See Step Five for information on
connecting the receiver’s video monitor outputs to the television.
HDMI Video: If the set-top box and the TV both have an HDMI
connector, connect the set-top box as follows (see Figure 24):
• Connect the set-top’s HDMI output to the HDMI 1, 2 or 3 Input
on the AVR.
Component Video: If the set-top box or the TV does not have an
HDMI connector, but they both have component video connectors,
connect the set-top box as follows (see Figure 25):
• Connect the set-top’s component video output to the Component
Video 1 or 2 Input on the AVR (if available).
• Connect the set-top’s digital audio output to one of the Coaxial or
Optical Inputs on the AVR (if available).
Composite S/Video: If the best video connection common to both
the set-top box and the TV is either S-video or composite video, follow
these steps (see Figure 27):
• Connect the set-top’s S-video or composite video output (use one
connection only) to the corresponding Video 1, 2 or 3 Input on the AVR.
• Connect the set-top’s digital audio output to one of the Coaxial or
Optical Inputs on the AVR (if available). For fully analog set-top boxes,
connect the box’s analog audio outputs to the AVR’s Analog 1, 2, 3,
4 or 5 Audio Inputs.

Connect a CD Player or Any Audio-Only Device
If the CD player or other component has a digital audio output, connect
it to any available digital audio input on the AVR. If not, connect the CD
player’s left and right analog audio outputs to the Analog 1 or 2 Audio
Inputs. No video connection is required, although the AVR will display
any signal at the video input assigned to the same source as the audio
inputs. See Figure 28.
Figure 28 – Connecting a CD or Audio-Only Source
NOTES:
A turntable may only be connected to the AVR if it is equipped
with an internal phono preamp, or if you supply an external
phono preamp, available at some audio specialty stores or
through the Harman Kardon Parts Dept. You may then connect
it to any set of analog audio inputs.
Although there is no official source on the AVR 254 named
CD, Phono or Audio, you may assign the audio device to an
available source, such as TV (if the Cable/Sat source is in use
for broadcast television), Game or AUX. See the Initial Setup
section for more details on source assignment.
Connect a Tape Deck or Any Audio-Only Recorder
If the recorder has digital audio inputs and outputs, connect either its
coaxial or optical digital audio output (not both) to the corresponding
available input on the AVR, and connect the AVR’s Coaxial Digital Audio
Output to the recorder’s coaxial digital audio input.
