Connecting to an Amplifier

Make one of the following connections, depending
on the capabilities of your existing equipment.

Note:

Since many factors affect the type of audio output,
see “The unit’s Audio Output Specifications” on page
43 for details.

Connecting to an Amplifier via 2 Channel
Audio Output

Connect the Left and Right 2CH AUDIO OUT jacks
on the player to the audio left and right in jacks on
your amplifier, receiver, or stereo system, using
audio cables (A).

Connecting to an Amplifier via Digital Audio
Output (Optical or Coaxial)

1. Connect the player’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack

to the corresponding in jack (OPTICAL O or
COAXIAL X) on your amplifier. Use an optional
digital (optical O or coaxial X) audio cable.

2. You will need to activate the player’s digital out-

put. (See “[AUDIO] Menu” on pages 20.)

Connecting to an Amplifier via HDMI Output

1. Connect the player’s HDMI OUT jack to the cor-

responding in jack on your amplifier. Use an
HDMI cable (H1).

2. You will need to activate the player’s digital out-

put. (See “[AUDIO] Menu” on pages 20.)

Tip:
Connect the amplifier’s HDMI output jack to HDMI
input jack on your TV using an HDMI cable (H2) if
your amplifier has HDMI output jack.

Digital Multi-channel sound

A digital multi-channel connection provides the best
sound quality. For this you need a multi-channel
Audio/Video Receiver that supports one or more of
the audio formats supported by your player. Check
the receiver manual and the logos on the front of the
receiver. (PCM Stereo, PCM Multi-Ch, Dolby Digital,
Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS and/or
DTS-HD)

Notes:

You must select a digital audio output and a
maximum sampling frequency that your Amplifier
(or AV receiver) accepts using [SPDIF], [HDMI]
and [Sampling Freq.] options on the setup menu
(see page 20).

With digital audio connection (SPDIF or HDMI),
Disc Menu button sounds of BD-ROM may not be
heard if the [SPDIF] or [HDMI] option is set to
[Primary Pass-Thru].

If the audio format of the digital output does not
match the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver
will produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at
all.

Multi-channel Digital Surround Sound via digital
connection can only be obtained if your receiver is
equipped with a Digital Multi-channel decoder.

To see the audio format of the current disc in the
on-screen display, press AUDIO.
