Audio Connection

The following setup items switch the method of
outputting audio signals when you connect a
component such as an amplifier (receiver) with a
digital input jack.
For connection details, see “Step 4: Connecting
the Audio Cords” on page 17.
Select “Dolby Digital,” “MPEG,” “DTS,” and
“48kHz/96kHz PCM” after setting “Digital Out”
to “On.”

If you connect a component that does not accept
the selected audio signal, a loud noise (or no
sound) will come out from the speakers, and may
affect your ears or cause speaker damage.
