HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have phono connectors. For
best performance, video cables should use 75-Ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell
audio/video products. Below are illustrations and names of common connectors. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of the output
and input connector types required by the various components and the length of each cable.
