ξPlease use up to 8 RCA-style audio interconnect cables (not included) to connect the FL (Front Left), FR (Front Right), SL (Surround Left), SR (Surround Right), C (Center), SW (SubWoofer), SBL (Surround Back Left) and SBR (Surround Back Right) analog output terminals of the BDP-103 to the corresponding multi-channel analog audio input jacks of your A/V receiver or amplifier.

ξIf the A/V receiver or amplifier only has 5.1ch audio inputs, do not connect the SBL (Surround Back Left) and SBR (Surround Back Right) terminals, and set the Down Mix option in the Setup Menu to 5.1 to make sure that any 7.1 channel signals are converted to 5.1 channels (refer to Down Mix Mode on page 68).

ξIf your audio system offers only stereo audio inputs, or if you would like to connect a dedicated stereo audio system in addition to the surround audio system which is already connected to the HDMI or S/PDIF outputs, you can connect the dedicated stereo audio system to the FL (Front Left) and FR (Front Right) terminals of the player.

ξFor the stereo outputs, if the audio system you are connecting to does not have surround speakers, set the Down Mix option in the Setup Menu to Stereo. If the audio system has surround speakers and Dolby Pro Logic or other surround audio decoding capabilities, set the down mix mode to “LT/RT”. (For more information, refer to “Down Mix Mode” on page 68).
