Dolby/DTS 5.1 Channel & Digital Audio Connections
15

Using the Dolby/DTS 5.1 Channel Analog Outputs

You must purchase a separate set of 5.1 Channel connectors (normally included with Speaker Systems).
Connect each of the (6) outputs to the corresponding Input of your Receiver, Amplifier or Speaker System.
For Receivers, adjust the Input Source Setting to correspond with the 5.1 Channel Analog Input.
Make sure the ANALOG Setting in the DVD Player’s Setup Menu is set to 5.1CH. (See pg 32)
Your DVD Player also features a set of 5.1 Channel Outputs for Dolby Ready Receivers, Amplifiers and Speaker
Systems. When you use the 5.1 Channel Outputs, you’re taking advantage of the DVD Player’s built-in Dolby
Decoder, which decodes the Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack on DVD discs to 6 separate analog signals - left front,
center front, right front, left rear, right rear, and a sub-woofer (”.1”) channel.

Using the Optical and CoAxial Digital Audio Output Connections

Your DVD Player features two Digital Audio Outputs to provide the ultimate in realism for your Home Theater
experience. Use this option to get the most out of discs recorded with Dolby 5.1 Digital Surround Sound or Digital
Theater System (DTS) by sending the encoded, or “RAW” digital audio signal to your Receiver for decoding. You will
only use one Digital Audio Output, depending on which is supported by your receiver or amplifier. You must be using a
Digital Receiver with 5.1 Channel Decoding and an Optical or CoAxial Digital Input to take advantage of this feature.
You must purchase a separate Coaxial or Optical Digital Audio Cable for these connections, as these cables are
not included with the DVD Player.
Connect the Optical or Coaxial Digital Audio Out of the DVD Player to the corresponding Input of your Receiver.
Adjust your Receiver’s Input Source Setting to the correspond with the Digital Audio In.
