Onkyo DV-SP405 Connecting to an AV Receiver

Connecting the DV-SP405—Continued

Although you can reproduce the DVD Player’s sound

from the TV speakers with the connections on page19,

connecting with an amplifier provides you high quality

dynamic sounds.

To reproduce Dolby Digital surround and DTS surround

sound, you need to connect to an amplifier with a Dolby

Digital and DTS decoder respectively.

Before connecting

• When you connect the DVD Player to the amplifier, be

sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from

the mains before making any connections. Otherwise,

the speakers may be damaged.

• Connect the plugs securely.

To enjoy multichannel surround sound you need to con-

nect this player to an AV receiver using a digital output.

Oceanian model has both coaxial and optical digital

jacks; use whichever is convenient.

North American and European models have only coaxial

digital jack.

In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also

connecting using the stereo analog connection.

To record the audio from a CD-R disc etc. to a cassette

or CD recorder that’s connected to the AV receiver, and

when your AV receiver has Zone2, you must connect the

DV-SP405’s analog audio outputs to the AV receiver.

You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to

your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs

available on this player (the illustration shows a standard

(composite) connection).

1. Connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack on

this player to a digital input on your AV receiver.

Note:

• North American and European models have only

coaxial digital jack.

This enables you to listen to surround sound.

For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable (supplied)

to connect the COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT

jack to a coaxial input on your AV receiver.

For an optical connection (Oceanian model only), use an

optical cable (not supplied) to connect the OPTICAL

DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack to an optical input on

your AV receiver.

2. Connect the ANALOG AUDIO OUTPUT L/R

and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks on this player to a set

of analog audio and video inputs on your AV

receiver.

The diagram shows standard video connections, but you

can alternatively use the S-Video (not European model)

or component video connections if they’re available.

3. Connect the AV receiver’s video output to a video

input on your TV.

Tip:

• You usually have to connect the same kind of video

cable between your DVD player and AV receiver, and

between your AV receiver and TV.
