Preparations
Connecting to a digital audio device
You can enjoy sound of enhanced quality by connecting the
player’s DIGITAL OUT (either OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack to a
digital input of an amplifier, etc., using an optical or coaxial digital
cable. The digital audio signal on a disc will be transferred directly
from the player. If the connected digital audio equipment is a
Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in
decoder, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
NOTES
• Connect the player and the digital audio device by using either
an optical digital cable or a coaxial digital cable.
• It is not recommended to use the digital jacks for dubbing.
When recording the sounds (DVD AUDIO, DVD VIDEO, SVCD,
Video CD or Audio CD) played back on the player, record them
through the analog jacks (in this case, set [ANALOG OUT] in
the [AUDIO] preference display to [2-CH STEREO])(see page
35).
• Depending on the disc, no signal may be output from the
DIGITAL OUT. Make an analog connection in this case.
• Set [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] in the [AUDIO] preference
display correctly according to the connected digital audio
equipment. If setting made for [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] is
incorrect, loud noise may be generated causing damage to
the speakers (see page 35).
