Connecting a DVD Player & TV

In order to play PCM/2 Digital/DTS multichannel soundtracks, you need to make digital audio connections. Connect your DVD player to this unit using either the coaxial digital terminal or the optical digital terminals, depending on which type of terminal your DVD has. The quality of these two types of connection is the same so it’s simply a matter of matching like with like. It is easiest, however, if you follow this receiver’s default settings and connect your DVD player to coaxial terminal. If your DVD player does not have an coaxial terminal, use the optical terminal to hook it up to this receiver. In this case you need to assign the DVD function to that terminal. See p.33 in order to do this. Follow the diagram below to hook up your DVD player to either the coaxial or optical terminal(s). Also, connect your TV to this receiver as shown below.

The basic default settings for the DIGITAL IN terminals are as follows: COAX: DVD; OPT. 1: TV/SAT; OPT. 2: DVR. If you need to use an optical terminal for your DVD use OPT.1. In this case, assign your coaxial terminal to TV/SAT (see p.33) and the optical default settings change to: OPT. 1: DVD; OPT. 2: DVR.
