Making Connections
Connect Your Subwoofer
Use a single RCA audio cable to connect the AVR’s Subwoofer connector to your
subwoofer as explained in Subwoofer Connections, on page 12. NOTE: The AVR 1710 and
AVR 171 provide connections for two subwoofers. See Manual Speaker Setup: Number
of Speakers, on page 31, for information about activating the two subwoofer outputs.
Consult your subwoofer’s user manual for specific information about making connections
to it.

Connect Your TV or Video Display
If your TV has an HDMI connector and you have HDMI source devices: Use an HDMI
cable (not included) to connect it to the AVR’s HDMI Monitor Out connector. The AVR
1710 and AVR 171 provide HDMI connections for two TVs (only HDMI Out 1 has ARC
and enables you to view the AVR’s on-screen menus). This will provide the best possible
picture quality.
