Connecting analog audio cables
Be sure to fully insert each plug for the best
connection. The plugs and jacks are colour-
coded to make connection easier.
Connecting optical cables
Optical interconnects
only plug in one way, so
make sure the plug is
correctly lined up with
the jack before insert-
ing. When inserting the
plug, the protective
shutter will open and you should hear it click
into position when fully inserted. Be careful
that you do not force the plug, because this
could result in damage to the
protective shutter, the cable, or the unit
itself.
If your amplifier has
stereo inputs only,
connect them here.
Connect to the coaxial or optical input of your
amplifier, if it has digital inputs. Plug into a standard AC wall outlet.
If your amplifier has 5.1 channel
analog inputs, connect them here.
Connect to the FRONT L (left)/R
(right), SURROUND L/R, CENTER
and SUBWOOFER inputs of your
amplifier.
Home theater audio connections
This player outputs multi-channel audio in both
analog and digital form. Check the manual for
your amplifier/receiver to see what equipment it
is compatible with (especially which digital
formats—Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.—it can
decode). Important
Before making or changing any rear panel connections,
make sure that all components are switched off and
unplugged from the wall outlet.
Connecting coaxial cables
Use an interconnect with a pin-type (also
called RCA or phono)
plug on each end to
connect up digital
coaxial-type jacks.
Make sure that the
plug is pushed fully
home.
Note
If you listen to multichannel DVD-Audio
through one of the digital outputs, it will be
downmixed to stereo. Also, high sampling rate
DVD-Audio (192kHz or 176.4kHz) will be
downsampled to 96kHz, 88.2kHz, 48kHz or
44.1kHz, depending on the disc. Multi channel
and high sampling rate DVD-Audio is only
available through the analog outputs.
Some DVD-Audio and all SACD audio is
output only through the analog outputs.
