CONNECTING TO DIGITAL (COAXIAL AND/OR OPTICAL) TERMINALS

English

If your DVD (LD) player, TV/DBS tuner, etc. are equipped with coaxial or optical digital audio signal output terminals, they can be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL digital signal input terminals.

Digital audio signals are transmitted with less loss than analog audio signals. In addition, digital audio signal connections are necessary, especially for an LD player or a DVD player, to send signals encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS to this unit.

To make a connection between optical digital audio signal terminals, remove the cover from each terminal, and then connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber cable that conforms to EIAJ standards. Other cables might not function correctly.

Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the COAXIAL (or OPTICAL) terminal of this unit, you must keep the unit connected with the same-named analog audio signal terminals of this unit, because a digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck, MD recorder or VCR connected to this unit. You can easily switch the selection of input signals between “digital” and “analog.” (See page 28 for details.)

DVD or LD player*

*If your LD player has a Dolby Digital RF signal output terminal, be sure to use the RF demodulator (separately purchased).

Notes

•When connecting an audio/video unit to both the digital and analog terminals of this unit, make sure to connect between both terminals of the same name.

•Be sure to attach the covers when the OPTICAL terminals are not being used in order to protect them from dust.

•The input signal from the DVD/LD input terminals is selected in the following order of priority with the input mode set to the AUTO position:

1 COAXIAL terminal

2 OPTICAL terminal

3 Analog terminal

•If the DIGITAL OUT data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS playback even if you make a digital connection between this unit and the player.

•All digital audio signal input terminals are applicable to sampling frequencies of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.

No sound will be generated when connecting your LD player’s Dolby Digital RF signal output terminal directly to this unit’s COAXIAL DVD/LD digital signal input terminal.
