Which aerial is suitable for receiving digital

terrestrial broadcasts?

area where you live, a new aerial may be necessary.

What equipment is necessary to play multi

other equipment. You must connect this unit with an HDMI

cable or an optical digital cable to an amplifier with a

Are the headphones and speakers directly

connected to the unit?

¾

You cannot directly connect them to the unit. Connect through

the amplifier etc. (> 67)

The television has both S VIDEO IN terminal and

COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals. Which terminal

should I connect with?

¾ Connecting with the component video out terminal provides a

more vivid picture compared to connecting with the S Video out
terminal.

If you have an LCD/plasma television or LCD projector

compatible with progressive scan, connect through the

component video terminals for high-quality progressive video.

If you have a CRT television or a multi system television using

PAL mode that is compatible with progressive scan, we cannot

recommend progressive output as some flickering can occur.
