Notes : When connecting only the 5.1CH AUDIO OUTPUTs to your A/V amplifier/receiver, you should set the AUDIO OUTPUT to HDMI AUTO or MULTI CH to output the multi-channel audio signals from these jacks as they were recorded. In this case, only the front left and right signals of the multichannel audio signals will output from the 2CH AUDIO OUTPUT jacks (and the A/V SCART OUTPUT connector). (For details, refer to When selecting the AUDIO OUTPUT on page 42.) In order to be able to hear multi-channel sound from DVD Audio and SACD, you should set DVD AUDIO AREA to DVD AUDIO and SACD AREA to MULTICHANNEL.(Refer to When selecting the DVD AUDIO AREA and When selecting the SACD AREA on page 43.) When connecting the 5.1CH AUDIO OUTPUTs to the multichannel audio inputs of an amplifier/receiver that dose not have the speaker setup for the multi-channel audio inputs, you should set the speaker size, distance and level settings correctly.(For details, refer to SETTING THE AUDIO SETUP on page 37.) 2. Connecting 2CH AUDIO OUTPUTs Connect these jacks to the AUDIO IN jacks of DVD(, AUX, CD, etc.) of your amplifier/receiver. Depending on whether these jacks to a stereo amplifier / receiver or an A/V amplifier/receiver with built-in surround decoder, you should set the AUDIO OUT to STEREO or Lt/Rt.(For details, refer to When selecting the AUDIO OUT on page 42.)
3. Connecting DIGITAL OUTPUTs To enhance the sound quality, connect either the OPTICAL or the COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTPUT jack to the corresponding DIGITAL INPUT jack of your amplifier/ receiver with built-in Dolby Digital or DTS decoder. (You dont need to do both.) Notes : The DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks cannot output the digital audio signals of DVD Audio and SACD. Therefore, to be able to play multi-channel DVD Audios and SACDs, you should also connect the 5.1CH AUDIO OUTPUTs.(Refer to Connecting 5.1CH AUDIO OUTPUTs above) If your amplifier/receiver doesnt have 5.1CH AUDIO INPUTs, make a stereo analog connection. (Refer to Connecting 2CH AUDIO OUTPUTs above.) It is not recommended to record digital audio signals with digital audio connection between this unit and MD or CD recorder, etc. When recording the sounds played on this unit, record them through the 2CH AUDIO OUTPUT jacks. When your amplifier/receiver is not compatible with the digital signals that are output from this unit, loud noise or no sound may be heard from the speakers, and it may be harmful to your ears and damages the speakers. To prevent it, you should disconnect the DIGITAL OUTs to your amplifier/receiver and make analog audio connection. When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connection, be sure to use a 75 COAXIAL cord, not a conventional AUDIO cord. All of the commercially-available optical fiber cords cannot be used for audio equipments. If there is an optical fiber cord which cannot be connected to your audio equipments, consult your dealer or nearest service organization.
