Headphone system configuration

This headphone system consists of a digital surround processor which decodes and converts the multichannel input signals and infrared cordless headphones. By simply connecting the digital surround processor to a DVD player, VCR, or other audio and video component, you can enjoy Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic surround sound. This system can be used with any audio and video component having an optical digital output jack, line (audio) output jack, or headphone jack. (See pages 11 and 29 for the connecting cables (sold separately).)

Notes

Install the digital surround processor in a location where there are no obstructions between the processor and headphones when used.

Do not install the digital surround processor in unstable locations, such as on top of the TV. If the processor falls down, it could cause an injury or be damaged.
