Connecting the DV-SP405—Continued
Although you can reproduce the DVD Player’s sound
from the TV speakers with the connections on page 19,
connecting with an amplifier provides you high quality
dynamic sounds.
To reproduce Dolby Digital surround and DTS surround
sound, you need to connect to an amplifier with a Dolby
Digital and DTS decoder respectively.
Before connecting
• When you connect the DVD Player to the amplifier, be
sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from
the mains before making any connections. Otherwise,
the speakers may be damaged.
• Connect the plugs securely.
To enjoy multichannel surround sound you need to con-
nect this player to an AV receiver using a digital output.
Oceanian model has both coaxial and optical digital
jacks; use whichever is convenient.
North American and European models have only coaxial
digital jack.
In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also
connecting using the stereo analog connection.
To record the audio from a CD-R disc etc. to a cassette
or CD recorder that’s connected to the AV receiver, and
when your AV receiver has Zone2, you must connect the
DV-SP405’s analog audio outputs to the AV receiver.
You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to
your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs
available on this player (the illustration shows a standard
(composite) connection).
1. Connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack on
this player to a digital input on your AV receiver.
Note:
• North American and European models have only
coaxial digital jack.
This enables you to listen to surround sound.
For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable (supplied)
to connect the COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
jack to a coaxial input on your AV receiver.
For an optical connection (Oceanian model only), use an
optical cable (not supplied) to connect the OPTICAL
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack to an optical input on
your AV receiver.
2. Connect the ANALOG AUDIO OUTPUT L/R
and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks on this player to a set
of analog audio and video inputs on your AV
receiver.
The diagram shows standard video connections, but you
can alternatively use the S-Video (not European model)
or component video connections if they’re available.
3. Connect the AV receiver’s video output to a video
input on your TV.
Tip:
• You usually have to connect the same kind of video
cable between your DVD player and AV receiver, and
between your AV receiver and TV.
