Connecting the multichannel analog outputs
If your AV receiver has 5.1 channel analog
inputs, we recommend connecting this player
to it using the multichannel analog outputs.
Doing this will ensure that you can enjoy all
kinds of disc, including Dolby Digital and DTS
DVD-Video discs, as well as high sampling rate
and multichannel DVD-Audio and SACD discs.
• Connect the MULTICHANNEL AUDIO
outputs on this player to the multi-channel
audio inputs on your AV receiver.
It’s convenient to use three stereo audio
cables; one for the
FRONT
, one for the
SURROUND
and one for the
CENTER
and
SUBWOOFER
channels.
You can use the SCART AV connector, or the S-
video or component video jacks to connect to
the AV receiver if you prefer.
Tip
•After connecting up and switching on, you
should change the
Audio Output Mode
setting in the Initial Setup menu from the
default
2 Channel
to
5.1 Channel
. See
also
Audio Output Mode
on page 40.
Connecting the digital output
This player has both optical and coaxial-type
digital audio outputs for connection to an AV
receiver. Connect whichever is convenient.
Depending on the capabilities of your AV
receiver, you might have to set up this player to
output only digital audio in a compatible
format. See
Digital Audio Out settings
on
page 34 and refer to the operating instructions
that came with your AV receiver.
Note that SACD audio is not output through
these jacks, so this connection should be in
addition to, rather than instead of, a 5.1
channel analog connection.
•Connect one of the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jacks on this player to a digital input on
your AV receiver.
For an optical connection, use an optical cable
(not supplied) to connect the
OPTICAL
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jack to an optical input
on your AV receiver.
For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable
(similar to the supplied video cable) to connect
the
COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jack to a
coaxial input on your AV receiver.
