If at all possible you will want to connect audio using digital cables (either coaxial S/PDIF or optical S/PDIF). If
your receiver or integrated amplifier does not have Dolby Digital or DTS capability (for instance, an older Pro
Logic model) then you should connect the “Mixed” stereo output of the OPPO DVD player to your receiver or
integrated amplifier (and immediately start saving for an upgrade!) Setting up, you have the following choices:
• No Surround Speakers: If the audio system does not have surround speakers, please use the
analogue RCA-style cables and set the Speaker Setup Page > Down-mix to “Stereo” or “V.
Surround”.
• Surround, But No Dolby Digital or DTS Support: If the audio system has surround speakers
and Dolby Pro Logic Surround support, please use the analogue RCA-style cables set the
Speaker Setup Page > Down-mix to “Left/Right”.
• Surround Speakers and/or DTS and/or Dolby Digital Support: If your receiver supports Dolby
Digital and/or DTS then please use a digital coaxial or optical cable and set the Audio Setup
Page > SPDIF Output to “Raw”. No additional audio cables will be needed unless you listen to
SACD (see below).
