ENGLISH

1. Connecting AUDIO OUTs

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

Notes :

•To listen to analog audio signal that is outputting from the AUDIO OUTs, you should set the AUDIO OUT to “ANALOG”.(In this case, the digital audio signal cannot be output from the DIGITAL OUTs of this unit.)

•Depending on whether the AUDIO OUTs are connected to a stereo amplifier/receiver/TV or a A/V amplifier/receiver with built-in surround decoder, you should set the DOWNMIX correctly. (Refer to SETTING THE AUDIO SETUP” on page 33.)

2. Connecting VIDEO OUTs

The COMPONENT VIDEO OUTs of this unit are capable of outputting either conventional interlacing video signal or progressively scanned video signal(that can reproduce high- density pictures with less flicker).

•According to VIDEO OUTs, the excellence in picture quality is as follows:

Progressive “COMPONENT” > Interlaced “COMPONENT”

>“S-VIDEO” > “(composite) VIDEO”

•When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect “Y” to “Y”, “CB” to “CB”(, “PB”, “B-Y”), “CR” to “CR”(, “PR”, “R- Y”).

•Depending on the type of the COMPONENT VIDEO INs of TV, be sure to set the component video output signal to the corresponding setting.(Refer to “CHANGING THE COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT SIGNAL” on page 26.)

•If there are both VIDEO INs and (MONITOR) VIDEO OUTs on your amplifier or receiver, connect these jacks to the corresponding VIDEO IN jacks of your amplifier or receiver and (MONITOR) VIDEO OUT jacks of that to the corresponding VIDEO IN jacks of the TV respectively.

•If there are no VIDEO jacks, connect these jacks to the TV directly. (Refer to “CONNECTING TO TV WITH AUDIO AND VIDEO INS” on the next page.)

Notes:

•When the component video output signal is set to PROGRESSIVE TV, the S-VIDEO and (composite) VIDEO OUTs can not output the normal video signals. Therefore, it causes the picture to break up and shake.

•When the progressive video signals are input into the non- progressive COMPONENT VIDEO INs of your TV, the picture may not be shown normally, too.

Therefore, when the progressive COMPONENT VIDEO INs of TV are not connected to, you should set the component video output signal to INTERLACE TV.

•Do not connect the unit to the TV through a VCR. Otherwise the picture may be disturbed due to the copy protection function.

3. Connecting DIGITAL OUTs

You can enhance the sound quality by connecting these COAXIAL and OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTs to the corresponding DIGITAL INs of an amplifier, MD recorder, etc.

The digital audio signal from a disc is directly transferred. If you connect to a DTS or Dolby Digital decoder or an amplifier with built-in decoder, you can enjoy theater-quality audio in your home.

Notes :

•To listen to digital audio signal that is outputting from the DIGITAL OUTs, you should set the AUDIO OUT to “SPDIF/BITSTREAM” or “SPDIF/PCM”.(In this case, the analog audio signal cannot be output from the AUDIO OUTs of this unit.)

When the AUDIO OUT is not set correctly, loud noise or no sound may be heard from the speakers, and it may be harmful to your ears and damages the speakers.(Refer to “SETTING THE AUDIO SETUP” on page 33.)

•When you connect the MD or CD recorder with a digital input for digital recording, the AUDIO OUT should be set to SPDIF/PCM. If not, the digital recording do not perform properly. (Refer to “SETTING THE AUDIO SETUP” on page 33.)

•When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connection, be sure to use a 75Ω COAXIAL cord, not a conventional AUDIO cord.

•All of the commercially-available optical fiber cords cannot be used for audio equipments. If there is an optical fiber cord which cannot be connected to your audio equipments, consult your dealer or nearest service organization.
