HDMI Connections
About HDMI
HDMI, or High Definition Multimedia Interface, is an
advanced audio/video connection method that trans-
fers full-bandwidth digital audio and video signals
over a single cable.
As a result, digital signals can pass unfettered from
your GDV-870 to an HDMI-compatible display for su
-
perior picture and sound quality.
Connecting HDMI Components
1 Using an HDMI cable, connect the HDMI output on
the GDV-870 to the corresponding HDMI input on
your digital display device.
2-Channel Audio Connections
Connecting Analog Audio
Using the analog audio output allows the internal DSP
and DACs to decode and convert the data from the
disc to analog signals.
This output is used when connecting the player to
an analog stereo preamp, and is necessary for use in
many distributed audio setups. This output can also
make use of analog direct modes available on many
Adcom preamplifiers.
1 Using RCA cables, connect the audio outputs on
the GDV-870 to the audio inputs on your display
device or receiver.
• Be sure to match the red (right) and white
