Option 2: Using a Coaxial cable
You can connect the recorder to an AV
ampli er/receiver in order to enjoy
multichannel surround sound.
Use a coaxial cable (not supplied) to
connect the COAXIAL OUT jack to
the digital input on the AV ampli er/
receiver with a digital multi-channel
sound decoder.
Before you start operating, set the audio
settings accordingly (see “Setup Menu
Options - AUDIO settings”.)
If the AUDIO settings do not match your
ampli er’s capabilities, the ampli er may
produce a strong, distorted sound or no
sound at all.
Helpful Hint:
– Do not connect your TV’s audio output
jacks to the AUDIO IN L/R jacks on this
recorder, this may cause unwanted
noise.
