Connecting my Dacmagic 100 to HK 3600

Hello and thanks in advance,
So I get to hook up my Dac tomorrow and after reading both manuals; Cambridge dacmagic 100 and Harman Kardon 3600, I'm still
unsure of the best connection? ( I will be using it along with the squeezebox for two channel listening)
What I think is that I go from the audio output from the DAC to the analog input on the AVR it looks like the only way actually.
And then go into to the AVR source setting to change the squeezebox settings to analog.
Sorry if this is not clear as it is my first adventure with a standalone DAC.
Thanks
Roger

Squeezebox to DacMagic via coaxial or optical - DacMagic to HK via Analog. Squeezebox set to digital out so you use the DAC's (Digital to Analog Converters) in the DacMagic NOT the Squeezebox.

Yes it does looking forward to setting it up.
Thanks and Merry Christmas
