Receiver (Amplifier) Hookups

Notes

•You cannot enjoy a picture with an S video signal if your TV does not conform to the S video signal. When your TV does not have an S VIDEO input, connect the component via the VIDEO INPUT connector using the video connecting cord (not supplied) instead of the S video cord. For details, see page 9. Refer to the instructions supplied with your TV.

•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 connect the component via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL connector, set Virtual Enhanced Surround (VES) to “OFF.” Otherwise, the player will not output signals from the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL connector.

When you have made the connections using an optical or coaxial digital connecting cord, do not set “DOLBY

DIGIT AL” to “DOLBY DIGIT AL,” “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.

Setups for the player

Some setup adjustments 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 46.
