AXIAL DIGITAL OUTPUT of the RDV-1040 to the digital input of an amplifier, DAT or MD by using an optional digital cable. The digi- tal stereo audio signal from a disc is directly transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with built-in decoder by using an optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.

When you make the digital connection, also make the analog connection, because, depend- ing on the disc type, no audio may be repro- duced from the DIGITAL OUTPUT.

With the digital connection, the Preference menu settings for COMPRESSION and DOWN MIX are disabled. Settings for these items must be made from the decoder.

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT DIGITAL SIGNAL CONNECTION:

The Digital Audio Output setting in the Au- dio Preferences on screen display must be properly set for the type of output being used when using an optical or coaxial digi- tal signal connection. If this preference set- ting is not done correctly, loud noise may be generated which can damage the speakers. Before using the RDV-1040 with a digital signal connection be sure the proper type of Digital Audio Output has been selected. See the Audio Menu information in the Prefer- ences Setting section of this manual.

Connecting to an Audio Amplifier or Receiver

You will get better sound quality if you con- nect the audio outputs of the RDV-1040 to a high quality amplifier or receiver and use com- ponent loudspeakers, rather than those built into the television.
