Hi, I can't figure out how to hook up my Direct TV box, DVD, VCR, and TV to my KR-V7080 Receiver. Can you help me with a diagram or step by step instructions? K Richardson

Hi,

please check the wires of the speaker for damage. If interchangeable with the other working speakers, please temporarily swap them at check if the good speakers continue to work. If so, then you would need to most likely get the rear speaker replaced or repaired.

Thank you.

Here is a link to a line diagram to connect most tv/dvd/vcr/direct tv.

Maybe hook up the actual source of the TV audio (not necessarily the TV) directly to the Kenwood. Cable and SAT boxes have nice standard digital audio outputs. They're wasted on TV's which typically have sucko speakers. Lower-end analog audio is also available if you want to watch Cable/SAT throught the TV speakers.

that reciever is not going to carry a hi definition video signal, it doesnt have either hdmi or component video inputs.

you can still use it, but if you run the picture through the reciever, it will have poor quality.

heres how you are supposed to hook it up:

find the single,m yellow video jack on your sattelite box, and hook that up to the "tv" video input, then hook the laft and right audio outputs from the cable box into the "tv" audio left and right inputs on the receiver. hook up the dvd player and vcr in the same manner, using "dvd" and "VCR" (if labeled as such) inputs on the reciever.

finally, send the tv video and audio outputs to the composite video in and left/right audio inputs on the tv. the video will be running through the reciever, and when you use the reciever to switch the sound source, the video will also be changed. you could get better picture quality if you ran the video directly to the tv using component (seperate green, red and blue) outputs/inputs, and bypassing the reciever on the video end, but then you would have to change inputs on the tv AND reciever to change from your cable box to your dvd player.

You wire the antenna to Dish receiver then to Go Video then to TV.

It would help to know some details about tour TV - like its make and model. Or do you mean the CABLE BOX?

And there are TWO signals to consider - audio and video. WHICH is the one you need to hook up without involving the dvd/vcr?

Let's start with basics:

1) TV's are not audio sources. They are end-units for video and its medium-fi audio.

A TV's internal audio capacity is more a convenience for stand-alone listening than a serious approach at hi-end audio. Many of us have monitors with NO audio capability.

TV-related audio and video are best VIEWED via direct video connection to the TV; and HEARD through direct digital audio connection to the receiver.

2) The one NECESSARY connection you need from the receiver to the TV is the basic VIDEO that let's the receiver communicate with you through the TV.

Ok i had it installed today too....i already had it so i have experience with it....get a vcr....in th eback there should be some ports for AV cables hook that up and get one of those cords that look like the direct tv cords and put that in you VCR out to tv...and screw it in with your hands in your tv.....when you have your VCR on the direct tv wont show and if your direct tv is on when your xbox and VCR are on it still wont so turn off the VCR to get direct tv back again.....im 13 and i figured this out...hopefully this helps a bit

Use SCART lead from Sat. box to VCR input( so you can record progs.) then another SCART lead from VCR output to TV set AV1 input. Connect DVD (player only I presume) direct to AV2 input of TV set using another SCART lead.
Hope all this works O.K.
Note:- If DVD is also a recorder then you don't need VCR as a recording device and leads will need to be altered accordingly, of course!!
