Connecting to an audio system
You can enjoy high quality dynamic sounds by connecting the recorder to an audio system.
Connections
• For connection to your TV, see pages 14 to 17.
• This section uses the following reference marks.
Notes
• DO NOT connect the BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUTPUT
jack of the recorder to the AC-3 RF input of a Dolby Digital
Receiver. This input on your A/V Receiver is reserved for
Laserdisc use only and is incompatible with the
BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUTPUT jack of the recorder.
• Connect the BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUTPUT jack of
the recorder to the “OPTICAL” or “COAXIAL” input of a
Receiver or Processor.
• Refer to the owner’s manual of the connected equipment
as well.
• When you connect the recorder to other equipment, be
sure to turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment
from the wall outlet before any connections.
• The output sound of the recorder has a wide dynamic
range. Be sure to adjust the audio amplifier’s volume to a
moderate listening level. Otherwise, the speakers and your
hearing may be damaged by a sudden high volume sound.
• Turn off the amplifier before you connect or disconnect the
recorder’s power cord. If you leave the amplifier power on,
the speakers may be damaged.
CAUTION
• When you are connecting (via the BITSTREAM/PCM
AUDIO OUTPUT jack) an AV decoder that does not
have Dolby Digital or Digital Theater Systems (DTS)
decoding function, be sure to set “Audio out select” to
“PCM” from the on-screen displays (
page 48).
Otherwise, high volume sound may damage your
hearing as well as the speakers.
• When playing DTS-encoded discs (audio CDs),
excessive noise may be output from the analog stereo
jacks. To avoid possible damage to the audio system,
you should take proper precautions when the analog
audio out (L/R) jacks of the recorder are connected to
an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital
Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS
Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected
to the BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUTPUT jack of the
recorder.
