Digital Audio
Coaxial digital audio jacks are usually color-coded in orange. Although they look similar to analog jacks, they should not be confused, and you should not connect coaxial digital audio outputs to analog inputs or vice versa. See Figure 4.
Coaxial digital audio cable
Figure 4 Coaxial Digital Audio

Antennas

The HK 3490 uses separate terminals for the included FM and AM antennas that provide proper reception for the tuner. The FM antenna uses a 75-ohm F-connector. See Figure 8.

Coaxial

Optical digital audio connectors are normally covered by a shutter to protect them from dust. The shutter opens as the cable is inserted. Input connectors are color-coded using a black shutter, while outputs use a gray shutter. See Figure 5.

Figure 8 FM Antenna

Optical
The AM loop antenna needs to be assembled. Connect the two leads to the spring terminals on the receiver. The AM antenna leads are polarized, and it is important to color-match the leads and terminals to maintain the proper polarity. See Figure 9.

Analog Audio

Analog connections require two cables, one for the left channel (white) and one for the right channel (red). These two cables are often attached to each other for most of their length. See Figure 6. Most sources that have digital audio jacks also have analog audio jacks, although some older types of sources, such as tape decks, have only analog jacks. For sources that are capable of both digital and analog audio, you may wish to make both connections. If you wish to record materials from DVDs or other copy-protected sources, you may only be able to do so using analog connections. Remember to comply with all copyright laws if you choose to make a copy for your own personal use.

Figure 9 AM Antenna

To enjoy XM satellite radio, purchase an XM antenna module designed for use with XM Ready devices and a subscription to the XM service. We recommend the XM Mini-Tuner and Home Dock Bundle, available at www.xmradio.com. The older Connect-and-Play module is also compatible with the HK 3490, but it may no longer be available in your area. An XM Ready-compatible module uses the special connector on the HK 3490s rear panel that allows you to use the receivers tuner, including its 40 preset station locations and remote control. Although you may use a module with standard audio connections, which may be indicated for car and home use, you will not be able to enjoy the HK 3490s ease of control.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Before you begin to connect cables, it is important to set up your speakers in their correct locations in the room. See Figure 10. Optimally, the front left and right speakers are placed the same distance from each other as from the listening position, or about 60 degrees apart, and angled toward the listener. The subwoofers location is less critical, since low-frequency sounds are omnidirectional. Placing the subwoofer close to a wall or in a corner will reinforce the low frequencies and may create a boomy sound. You may wish to experiment over time by placing the subwoofer where the listener normally sits and then walking around the room until the low frequencies sound best. Place the subwoofer in that spot.

INSTALLATION
You are now ready to connect your various components to your receiver. Before beginning, make sure that all components, including the HK 3490, are turned completely off and their power cords are unplugged. Dont plug in any of the power cords until you have finished making all of your connections. The receiver generates heat while it is on. Select a location that leaves several inches of space on all sides of the receiver. It is preferable to avoid completely enclosing the receiver inside a cabinet. It is also preferable to place components on separate shelves rather than directly on top of the receiver. Some surface finishes are delicate. Try to select a location with a sturdy surface finish.
muting, when headphones are being used, or when the speakers are turned off using the Speaker 1/2 Switch. See Figure 12. Consult the manufacturers guide for the subwoofer for additional information.
Step One Connect the Speakers
If you have not yet done so, place your speakers in the listening room as described in the Speaker Placement section. Connect the front left and right loudspeakers to the Speaker 1 speaker terminals on the HK 3490. Maintain the proper polarity by always connecting the positive and negative terminals on each speaker to the positive and negative terminals on the receiver. You may place a second pair of speakers in another room, or in the same room for additional sound power, connecting those speakers to the Speaker 2 Outputs and maintaining polarity. Use the Speaker 1/2 Selector on the front panel or remote to activate either or both pairs of speakers simultaneously. See Figure 11.
Figure 12 Subwoofer Connection
Step Three Connect the Antennas
Connect the FM and AM antennas to their terminals, and plug the XM antenna module (not included) into its connector. The XM module is purchased separately, and must be activated at the time you purchase a subscription. See Figure 13.
Figure 13 Antenna Connections

Figure 14 Phono Inputs and Ground
If your turntable has an MM-type cartridge and a built-in phono preamp, do not connect it to the Phono Inputs. Use one of the other available audio input sources on the HK 3490.

Compact Disc (CD) Player

Connect the analog audio outputs of your CD player (or another audioonly device) to the CD Audio Inputs. See Figure 15.
Figure 17 Video 1 A/V Inputs and Outputs

Video 2 Source

The Video 2 source is used only for playback. Since the remote is preprogrammed to operate a Harman Kardon DVD player when the Video 2 source is selected, we recommend that you connect a DVD player to the Video 2 Inputs. You may have observed that the HK 3490 does not feature surround sound decoding, other than Dolby Virtual Speaker. If you prefer the complete home theater experience, you may wish to consider purchasing a full-featured Harman Kardon AVR Series audio/video receiver. However, we hope you will find that using a DVD player with the HK 3490 in smaller settings, such as a bedroom or den, surpasses the audio performance of most televisions, including those with onboard stereo speakers. Connect the left and right analog audio outputs of the DVD player to the Video 2 Audio Inputs on the HK 3490. Then connect the composite video output of the DVD player, usually colored yellow, to the Video 2 Video Input. See Figure 18.

NOTE: If you receive your television programming using your TV with an antenna or direct cable connection, connect the TVs analog audio outputs (if available) to the Video 2 Analog Audio Inputs. Do not connect any video output on the television set to any Video Input on the receiver. See Step Five for information on connecting the receivers Video Monitor Outputs to the television.

Video 3 Source

The Video 3 source is used only for playback.The Video 3 source has two sets of input jacks, one located on the HK 3490s rear panel and one set on the front panel. If you wish to connect a video device more or less permanently, you may prefer to connect it to the rear-panel inputs for a neater appearance. You may prefer to reserve the frontpanel inputs for devices connected on a temporary basis, such as an iPod (not included), a camcorder, a game console, or another type of media player with analog audio and/or video outputs. You may connect devices to both the front- and rear-panel inputs simultaneously. To select either device, press the Video 3 Source Selector on the HK 3490s front panel or remote repeatedly. When VIDEO 3 appears on the front panel of the HK 3490, the rear-panel inputs are active. When VIDEO F appears, the front-panel inputs are active. Connect the left and right analog audio outputs of your device to the corresponding Video 3 Inputs on either the front or rear panel, and if available, connect the composite video output of the device to the Video 3 Video Input on the same panel. See Figure 19.

Docking Station

With the optional The Bridge II docking station, you can listen to audio or view videos stored on your iPod, iPod touch or iPhone (not included), use your HK 3490 remote control to operate the iPod, and even charge the iPod while its docked in The Bridge II docking station. Simply plug the proprietary cable from The Bridge II unit into the special connector on the rear of the HK 3490. See Figure 20. Refer to the owners manual for The Bridge II model for more information.
