Step 3: Connecting to an Audio Component

If your audio component such as an AV amplifier (receiver) has a Dolby*1 Digital, DTS*2, or MPEG audio decoder and a digital input jack, use this connection. You can enjoy Dolby Digital (5.1 ch), DTS (5.1 ch) and MPEG audio (5.1 ch) surround effects.

Notes

•After you have completed the connection, make the appropriate settings in Quick Setup (page 18). If your audio component has an MPEG audio decoder function, set “MPEG” to “MPEG” in AUDIO SETUP (page 54). Otherwise, no sound or a loud noise will come from your speakers.

•The TVS effects of this player cannot be used with this connection.

•In order to listen to DTS sound tracks, you must use this connection. DTS sound tracks are not output through the LINE (RGB)-TV (SCART) jack, even if you set “DTS” to “ON” in Quick Setup (page 18).
