Connecting the DV-SP404/DV-SP404E—Continued

Connecting to an AV Receiver

Although you can reproduce the DVD Player’s sound from the TV speakers with the connections on page 18, connecting with an amplifier provides you high quality dynamic sounds.

To reproduce Dolby Digital surround and DTS surround sound, you need to connect to an amplifier with a Dolby Digital and DTS decoder respectively.

Before connecting

When you connect the DVD Player to the amplifier, be sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from the mains before making any connections. Otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.

Connect the plugs securely.

To enjoy surround sound you need to connect this player to an AV receiver using a digital output.

Oceanian model has both coaxial and optical digital jacks; use whichever is convenient.

North American and European models have only coaxial digital jack.

In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also connecting using the stereo analog connection.

To record the audio from a CD-R disc etc. to a cassette or CDR recorder that’s connected to the AV receiver, and when your AV receiver has Zone2, you must connect the DV-SP404/DV-SP404E’s analog audio outputs to the AV receiver.

You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs available on this player (the illustration shows a standard (composite) connection).

1.Connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack on this player to a digital input on your AV receiver.

This enables you to listen to surround sound.

For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable (supplied) to connect the “COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT” jack to a coaxial input on your AV receiver.

For an optical connection (Oceanian model only), use an optical cable (not supplied) to connect the “OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT” jack to an optical input on your AV receiver.

2.Connect the ANALOG AUDIO OUT L/R and VIDEO OUT jacks on this player to a set of ana- log audio and video inputs on your AV receiver.

The diagram shows standard video connections, but you can alternatively use the S-Video or component video connections if they’re available.

3.Connect the AV receiver’s video output to a video input on your TV.

Tip:

You usually have to connect the same kind of video cable between your DVD player and AV receiver, and between your AV receiver and TV.
