DIGITAL INPUT
Connect components
capable of outputing
Dolby Digital (e.g. DVD
or SAT) or standard
PCM (CD) format digital
signals. Read section
on "Input Signal Setting"
under "Advanced Sound
Control" carefully to
adjust the matching
input settings.
If your CD player is equipped with digital optical jacks,
use of optical cable is preferred. What you need is just
one more optical digital connecting cable (not
supplied). Plug it in the digital input jack of the
receiver and select OPTICAL on the receiver setting
(see details on pg 21 chapter "Input Signal Setting").
You can enjoy better sound quality brought to you by
the optical cable. When optical cable is used, analog
cables are still needed for recording to tape output.
DVD
DIGITAL CONNECTION
If you have a SAT receiver DVD player or CD player with a digital output, you can make use
of an optical digital cable (not supplied) or coaxial digital cable (not supplied) to carry the
audio portion of the signal and enjoy Dolby Digital sound quality. One optical or coaxial cable
is needed for each SAT receiver, DVD player or CD player. When optical or coaxial cable is
used, the analog audio cables are still needed if recording through a tape or VCR is desired.
This receiver provides one optical and one coaxial digital input for the connection of your
components. Please connect your components (e.g. DVD, SAT or CD) to the appropriate
digital inputs and press DIGITAL INPUT to select the corresponding digital input source.
Note: Optical and coaxial cables carry only the audio portion of the signal. A video connection
must also be established for a SAT receiver and DVD player. Composite video (yellow RCA
connector) can also be used. It is important that the same type of cable that is connected
from the Home Theatre to the TV is used to connect the SAT receiver or DVD player to the
Home Theatre.
