ENGLISH

1. Connecting MIXED AUDIO OUTs 1

Connect these jacks to the DVD (, AUX, etc.) IN jacks of your amplifier or receiver.

Notes :

While playing back a disc containing multi-channel signal format such as DTS, Dolby Digital and MPEG Multichannel with this connection, the 5 discrete channels (front L, center, front R, rear L and rear R) are mixed down to these front and headphone channels.

If the MIXED AUDIO OUT connection is made, only two front speakers are required.

2. Connecting VIDEO OUT’s

This DVD Player has 3 kinds of Video Outputs : Component Video, S-Video and Composite Video.

If your receiver or amplifier has both VIDEO INPUT jacks and VIDEO (MONITOR) OUTPUT jacks, connect these VIDEO OUTS to the corresponding VIDEO IN jacks of your amplifier or receiver and the receiver’ MONITOR OUTPUT jacks to the corresponding input jacks on your TV. If your amplifier or receiver does not have the necessary input and output jacks, connect these jacks directly to the VIDEO IN jacks of the TV. (Refer to “CONNECTING TO TV WITH AUDIO AND VIDEO INPUTS” on the next page.)

When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect “Y” to “Y”, “R-Y” to “R-Y” (or “PR”), “B-Y” to “B-Y” (or “PB”)

For your reference, video picture quality is usually rated as follows :

“COMPONENT” > “S-VIDEO” > “COMPOSITE”

NOTE : Do not connect this unit to your TV through a VCR. The copy protection function built into DVD software may interfere with the picture.

3. Connecting DIGITAL OUTs

If your amplifier or receiver has built-in digital decoders or if you wish to make direct connection to an MD or CD recorder, connect the COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUTS to the corresponding DIGITAL INPUTS of the associated device(s).

Notes :

You must select the appropriate digital output mode on this DVD player before trying to use it with an outboard amplifier or receiver via the digital connections.

Otherwise, operation with the incorrect digital mode may result in a loud noise through your speakers that could damage the speakers and/or our hearing. (For details, refer to “When selecting the DIGITAL OUTPUT” on page 32.)

Recordings of DVD software made via the digital connection on an MD or CD recorder may not be made properly.

When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connections, use 75 Ohm coaxial cable not standard audio patch cords.

Not all of the commercially available optical cables are suitable for use with audio equipment. If you have any questions regarding the appropriateness of any cable, please consult your dealer or a professional service organization.

Remove the protecive cap before making any OPTICAL DIGITAL connections. Re-install the cap when you will not be using the OPTICAL INS or OUTS.

4. Connecting the 6.1 CH AUDIO OUTs

This DVD player has built-in multi-channel digital decoders for DTS, Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, MPEG Multichannel and Circle Surround including the 6.1 Extended Surround versions of both DTS and Dolby Digital so you can enjoy high-quality audio and surround sound without the need for an external decoder.

Connect these jacks to the corresponding 6.1 (or 6) channel inputs of your amplifier or receiver.

Notes :

If you amplifier or receiver has only 6 channel direct inputs, do not hook up the REAR CENTER OUTPUT.

In that case, you can run the REAR CENTER OUTPUT to a separate amplifier or powered speaker. With such a hook- up, however, you will have limited ability to control the rear center speaker level as this DVD player does not have a master volume control. Center Rear volume trim is limited to +/- 12 dB compared to the other channels. If you need more volume adjustment capability, it should come from the associated amplifier or powered speaker.

When using the 6.1 CH Audio Outs, adjustments for speaker set-up, bass management, dynamic range control, and surround sound mode should be made from this DVD player and not from your amplifier or receiver.

(Refer to “When selecting the Dynamic Range Control”, when selecting the SURROUND” and “When selecting the SPEAKER OPTIONS” on pages 33-34.)

5. Connecting to an additional amplifier or TV set

This unit incorporates additional audio and video outputs such as (composite) VIDEO OUT 2 and MIXED AUDIO OUT 2 for use with a second TV or amplifier.

To connect these jacks correctly, refer to “Connecting MIXED AUDIO OUT’s 1” and Connecting VIDEO OUTs” described above.

6. AC INPUT CORD

When all connections are made, plug this cord into an AC outlet.

7. VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH (Optional by region)

In some countries, this unit operates on AC 115V or AC 230V. If your unit has this capability, set the VOLTAGE SELECTOR switch to match your line voltage before connecting the AC input cord to an AC outlet.

8. A/V SCART CONNECTORs (Regional Option)

Refer to “CONNECTING TO TV AND VCR WITH SCART CONNECTORS (Regional Option)” on page 9.
