Making Connections
Connect Your Subwoofer

subwoofer as explained in Subwoofer Connections, on page 12. NOTE: The AVR 1710S and
AVR 171S 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

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
1710S and AVR 171S 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.
If your TV does not have an HDMI connector or if your TV does have an HDMI
connector but you are connecting some source devices with only composite video
connectors: Use a composite video cable (not included) to connect the AVR’s Composite
Monitor Out connector to your TV’s composite video connector.
