Home theater audio connections

This player outputs multi-channel audio in both analog and digital form. Check the manual for your amplifier/receiver to see what equipment it is compatible with (especially which digital formats—Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.—it can decode).

1 If your amplifier has stereo inputs only, connect them here.

Important

Before making or changing any rear panel connections, make sure that all components are switched off and unplugged from the wall outlet.

2 If your amplifier has 5.1 channel analog inputs, connect them here. Connect to the FRONT L (left)/R (right), SURROUND L/R, CENTER and SUBWOOFER inputs of your amplifier.

3 Connect to the coaxial or optical input of your amplifier, if it has digital inputs.

Connecting analog audio cables

Be sure to fully insert each plug for the best connection. The plugs and jacks are colour- coded to make connection easier.

Connecting optical cables

Optical interconnects only plug in one way, so make sure the plug is

correctly lined up with the jack before insert-

ing. When inserting the plug, the protective

shutter will open and you should hear it click into position when fully inserted. Be careful that you do not force the plug, because this could result in damage to the

protective shutter, the cable, or the unit itself.

4 Plug into a standard AC wall outlet.

Connecting coaxial cables

Use an interconnect with a pin-type (also
called RCA or phono)
plug on each end to	COAX
connect up digital
coaxial-type jacks.
Make sure that the
plug is pushed fully
home.

Note

If you listen to multichannel DVD-Audio through one of the digital outputs, it will be downmixed to stereo. Also, high sampling rate DVD-Audio (192kHz or 176.4kHz) will be downsampled to 96kHz, 88.2kHz, 48kHz or 44.1kHz, depending on the disc. Multi channel and high sampling rate DVD-Audio is only available through the analog outputs.

Some DVD-Audio and all SACD audio is output only through the analog outputs.
