Connecting Your Components—Continued

Step 2: Audio Connection

aIf your DVD player has a coaxial digital audio output jack, connect it to the AV receiver’s DIGITAL IN COAX- IAL jack. You can enjoy Dolby and DTS listening modes with this connection.

bIf your DVD player has an optical digital audio output jack instead of coaxial one, connect it to the AV receiver’s DIGITAL IN OPTICAL 1 or 2 jack, and set the DIGITAL INPUT assignment to OPT1 or OPT 2 (see page 35). Coaxial connections perform the same as optical ones.

cOptionally, connecting your DVD player’s audio out L/R jacks to the AV receiver’s DVD IN FRONT L/R jacks will allow you to record audio from your DVD player.

Note: If your DVD player has main L/R output jacks and multichannel L/R output jacks, use the main L/R output jacks.

—Multichannel Audio Connection—

dIf your DVD player has analog multichannel output jacks, connect them to the AV receiver’s DVD IN FRONT, SURROUND, CENTER, and SUBWOOFER jacks. Use a multichannel analog cable or several normal audio cables. You can enjoy DVD-Audio or SACD with this connection.
