Connection to an Audio System
Stereo system
NOTES (for Method 2 only):
• When using an AV amplifier with a built in decoder (AV control center), Dolby Digital, or DTS decoder as shown in the
Method 2, set DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS to BITSTREAM accordingly for audio output in the setup mode (refer to page 26).
Set it to PCM for the decoder that is not used currently. Playing back a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise dis-
tortion, and may also damage the speakers.
• The audio source on a disc in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD
deck or DAT deck.
• Set DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS to PCM for audio output in the setup mode for connecting to an MD deck or DAT deck (refer to
page 26).
• Harsh noise that could harm your ears or the speakers is generated when a DVD recorded in DTS is played while using a
decoder, etc., that is not DTS-compatible.
• When playing a copyright-protected over 96kHz (88.2kHz) PCM DVD, the digital sound will be down sampled at 48kHz
(44.1kHz), even if you set LPCM SELECT to OFF (refer to page 26).
• Super Audio CD sound is not output as digital sound.

CONNECTIONS
The following shows examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player to TV and other
components.
If using this DVD player to play back a DVD in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround or DTS surround format, the
DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its OPTICAL or COAXIAL DIGITAL OUT jacks.
By hooking up the player to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy more convincing, realistic ambience
with powerful and high-quality surrounding sound of a professional standard which can be heard in movie theaters.
Use a commercially available audio optical or coaxial digital cable (not included) for the audio connections.
NOTES:
• Be sure to turn off the power of all components in the system before connecting another component.
• Refer to the Instruction Manuals for your TV, stereo system and any other components to be connected to the
DVD player.
Optical cable (commercially available)
• Optical cable (commercially available) may be damaged when bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops with
a diameter of 15 cm or more when storing them.
• Use a cable which is 3m or shorter.
• Insert cable plugs firmly into the connectors when making connections.
• If a plug has dust or is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a connector.
