Notes

•Refer to the instructions supplied with the component to be connected.

•You cannot make digital audio recordings of discs recorded in multi-channel surround format directly using an MD deck or DAT deck.

When you make the connections above, do not set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “DOLBY DIGITAL,” “MPEG” to “MPEG” and “DTS” to “ON.” If you do, a loud noise will suddenly come out from the speakers, affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.

zIf you have a digital component with a built-in DTS, Dolby Digital or MPEG decoder

You can enjoy multi-channel surround sound by connecting the component via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL connector using an optical or coaxial digital connecting cord (not supplied). For details on hookups and settings, see page 12.

Setups for the player

Some setups are necessary for the player depending on the components to be connected.

Use the setup display to change the various settings. For details on using the setup display, see page 39.

•To listen to the sound through speakers connected to a receiver (amplifier) having a digital connector or to output the sound to a digital component such as a DAT or MD deck

When you play a DVD, set “DIGITAL OUT” in “AUDIO SETUP” to “ON” and then set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “D-PCM,” “MPEG” to “PCM” and “DTS” to “OFF” in the setup display (page 48). These are the default settings.
