Audio Connections
This player features two digital (optical and coaxial) and
also analog audio output connection possibilities.

Digital Audio Connections:

You can enjoy the digital audio recorded on DVD discs
from both optical digital and coaxial digital output jacks.
When making digital audio connections, use either
the coaxial or the optical output jack. It is not
necessary to make connections to both digital
output jacks.
When a DVD recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG is
playing, noise will be output if you have made
connections via the digital audio jacks to an AV
component that cannot decode a Dolby Digital, DTS, or
MPEG digital bitstream. In this case, be sure to set up
the Setup Navigator audio settings to best reflect the
type of system you are using (page 21). Additionally, the
digital audio settings can be adjusted manually in the
Setup screen Audio 1 menu (page 41).

DIGITAL OUT (Optical)

The digital signal is transmitted as light pulses through a
fiber-optic cable.
• Use a commercially available fiber-optic cable to
connect the DIGITAL OPT. OUT on the player to the
digital optical input on an AV component.

DIGITAL OUT (Coaxial)

The digital signal is transmitted electronically through a
coaxial cable.
• Use a commercially available coaxial cable to connect
the coaxial digital output on the player to the coaxial
digital input on an AV component.
