Playing the connected source
About digital sound
If the equipment is digitally connected to the AV Receiver, the
sound from the digital input will automatically be selected and
reproduced instead of the analog sound as explained below.
The initial settings are as follows:
• When the DVD source is selected, the digital sound from the
DIGITAL INPUT COAXIAL connector is reproduced.
• When the CD source is selected, the digital sound from the
DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL 2 connector is reproduced.
• When the TAPE source is selected, the digital sound from the
DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL 1 connector is reproduced.
When the digital sound is reproduced, the ŸDIGITAL, DTS, or
PCM (2 channel digital stereo) indicator lights up according to the
received sound system in the AV Receiver’s display.
