Connecting analog audio cables

Be sure to fully insert each plug for the best connection. The plugs and jacks are color- coded to make connection easier.

Connecting optical cables

Optical interconnects only OPT plug in one way, so make

sure the plug is correctly lined up with the jack before inserting. When inserting the plug, the

protective shutter will open and you should hear it click into position when fully in- serted. Be careful that you do not force the plug, because this could result in damage to the protective shutter, the cable, or the unit itself.

Connecting coaxial cables

Use an interconnect with a

pin-type (also called RCA or	COAX
phono) plug on each end to
connect up digital coaxial-
type jacks. Make sure that the plug is
pushed fully home.

Connecting i.LINK cables

4-pin, S400 i.LINK connectors for connec- tions to i.LINK-equipped receivers and other components.

Each i.LINK connector acts simultaneously as both input and output. (page 55)

Note

If you listen to multichannel DVD-Audio through one of the digital outputs, it will be downmixed to stereo. Also, high sampling rate DVD-Audio (192kHz or 176.4kHz) will be downsampled to 96kHz, 88.2kHz, 48kHz or 44.1kHz, depending on the disc (see page 38). Multi channel and high sampling rate DVD-Audio is only available through the analog outputs and i.LINK outputs.

All DVD-Audio and all Super Audio CD audio is output only through the analog outputs and i.LINK outputs (see pages 39, 55).
