Please excuse my lack of h/t grammar, as I'm not yet well schooled in h/t. I got my x-mas present early. A Kenwood HTB-504. I got the speakers set up and connected, but I have no rca's to run from the receiver. My tv is a Philips Magnavox 19". It doesn't have any jacks on the back, only one video and one audio on the front. Do I just run a single male rca from the video jack on the front to the "moniter out" on the receiver? Also, the instructions for the Kenwood says video deck. I assume that mean vcr? Anyway, it shows on the Kenwood directions that you run a single male (single on both ends) from the "video in" on the vcr (or video deck) to the "video 1 out" on the receiver, and a single male from the "video out" on the vcr to the "video 1 in" on the receiver. On the audio side it shows running a single male on one end from the "audio in" on the vcr to a dual male on the other end to the "rec out" on the receiver, and a single male end from the "audio out" on the vcr to a dual male on the other end to the "play in" on the receiver. By single male on one end and dual male on the other end I mean that there is a single male connector on one end of the rca, and a dual male connector on the other end of the rca cable (for those who are confused by my lack of terminology ). HOWEVER, on the directions for my vcr, it shows only one male end running from the "audio out" on the vcr to a dual male end to the "audio in" on the receiver, and a single male from the "video out" on the vcr to a single male to the "video in" on the receiver. Should I go with what the directions on for the Kenwood says? Sorry for the long rambling post, but I don't want to spend a buttload of money on cables only to have the wrong thing. Thanks in advance and if anyone needs more detail just tell me and I'll give them to you the best that I can. Thanks again.
