02Connecting up

3Connect the AV receiver’s video output to a video input on your TV.

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.

Connecting using a digital audio output

Connect the optical or coaxial digital outputs if you want to use an external decoder or the decoder in your AV receiver.

To be able to play SACDs and multichannel DVD-Audio discs, you should also connect the 5.1 channel analog outputs (see Connecting using the multichannel analog outputs above).

If your AV receiver doesn’t have 5.1 channel analog inputs, make a stereo analog connection.

When inserting the plug, the protective shutter will open and you should hear the plug click into position when fully inserted. Take care not to force the plug as this may damage the shutter, the cable and/or the player.

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.

2If you didn’t connect the 5.1 channel analog outputs, connect the AUDIO OUT (2ch) jacks on this player to a stereo analog input on your receiver.
