Hooking Up the Multichannel DVD Input

If your DVD player supports multichannel audio formats such as DVD-Audio or SACD, and it has a multichannel analog audio output, you can connect it to the AV receiver/AV amplifier’s multichannel DVD input.

Use a multichannel analog audio cable, or several normal audio cables, to connect the AV receiver/AV amplifier’s DVD FRONT L/R, CENTER, SURR L/R, SURR BACK L/R, and SUBWOOFER jacks to the 7.1-channel analog audio output on your DVD player. If your DVD player has a 5.1-channel analog audio output, don’t connect anything to the AV receiver/AV amplifier’s SURR BACK L/R jacks.

To select the multichannel input, see “Using the Multichannel DVD Input” on page 55. To adjust the subwoofer sensi- tivity for the multichannel input, see “Hardware Setup” on page 91.
