Connecting to a Dolby Digital Decoder or DTS Decoder

Some Discs are recorded in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital Surround or Digital Theater System (DTS) Surround format. These Discs will sound best if you connect the DVD Player to a Dolby Digital or DTS Decoder.

You will need a coaxial digital audio cable or an audio optical cable (not supplied). Details are on page 12.

If you use the OPTICAL jack, remove the protective cap.

If you connect the DVD Player to a Dolby Digital Decoder, set DOLBY DIGITAL to ON. Details are on pages 38-39.

If you connect the DVD Player to a DTS Decoder, set DTS to ON. Details are on pages 38-39.

If the DVD Player is not connected to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, set DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS to OFF. Incorrect settings may cause noise distortion and damage the speakers.

Select the 5.1 channel Dolby Digital Surround sound in the Disc menu.

Connect a subwoofer and the center, front, and surround speakers to the Decoder as described in the Decoder owner’s manual.
