Connection to an Amplifier
You can only listen to DVD playback using OPTICAL
(O), COAXIAL (X) and AUDIO OUT (A2) connec-
tions. The tuner and VCR will still be heard through
the RF.OUT (R) or DVD/VCR AUDIO OUT (A1) jack.
(See page 11.)
Connecting to an amplifier equipped with two
channel analog stereo or Dolby Pro Logic II/Pro
Logic
Connect the Left and Right AUDIO OUT (or DVD/
VCR AUDIO OUT) jacks on the DVD+VCR to the
audio left and right in jacks on your amplifier, receiv-
er, or stereo system using optional audio cables (A1,
A2).
Connecting to an amplifier equipped with two
channel digital stereo (PCM) or to an Audio/Video
receiver equipped with a multi-channel decoder
(Dolby Digital™, MPEG 2, or DTS)
Connect one of the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT jacks (OPTICAL O, COAXIAL X) to the
corresponding in jack on your amplifier. Use an
optional digital (OPTICAL O, COAXIAL X) audio
cable.
You will need to activate the DVD+VCR’s digital
output. (See “AUDIO” on page 17.)

Digital Multi-channel sound

A digital multi-channel connection provides the
best sound quality. For this you need a multi-chan-
nel Audio/Video receiver that supports one or more
of the audio formats supported by your DVD+VCR
(MPEG 2, Dolby Digital and DTS). Check the receiv-
er manual and the logos on the front of the receiver.
Caution:
Due to the DTS Licensing agreement, the digital
output will be in DTS digital out when DTS audio
stream is selected.
Notes:
If the audio format of the digital output does not
match the capabilities of your receiver, the
receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or
no sound at all.
Six Channel Digital Surround Sound via digital
connection can only be obtained if your receiver is
equipped with a Digital Multi-channel decoder.
To see the audio format of the current DVD in the
on-screen display, press A.MONITOR.
