Connecting to an amplifier
To connect two-channel analog stereo or
Dolby Pro Logic II/Pro Logic:
• Connect the Left and Right AUDIO OUT (or
AV AUDIO OUT) jacks on the recorder to the
audio left and right in jacks on your amplifier,
receiver, or stereo system using the audio
cables supplied.
To connect a two channel digital stereo or
A/V receiver with multi-channel decoder:
1 Connect one of the recorder’s DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT jack (coaxial) to the
corresponding in jack on your amplifier. Use
an optional digital (coaxial) audio cable.
2 Activate the recorder’s digital output. (See
“Audio Settings” on page 15).
Digital multi-channel sound
A digital multi-channel connection provides the
best sound quality. For this you need a
multi-channel audio/video receiver that supports
one or more of the audio formats supported by
your recorder, including MPEG 2, Dolby Digital
and DTS. Check the receiver manual and the
logos on the front of the receiver to verify this.

Accessory audio/video (A/V) connections
To connect the recorder to an accessory
component:
• Connect the AV IN 1 or AV 2 IN jacks on the
recorder to the audio/video out jacks on your
accessory component, such as a VCR or
camcorder, using the optional audio/video
cables. (Refer to “Recording from DV input”
on page 21.)
Connecting a digital camcorder
• Use a DV cable (not supplied) to connect the
DV in/out jack of your DV digital camcorder to
the front panel DV IN jack of your recorder.
Note
• If the audio format of the digital output does not
match the capabilities of your receiver, the
receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound
or no sound at all.
• To play six-channel digital surround sound
though a digital connection, your receiver must
have a Digital Multi-channel decoder.
• To see the audio format of the current DVD
displayed on the screen, press AUDIO.
• Your recorder does not perform internal
(2-channel) decoding of a DTS sound track. To
enjoy DTS multi-channel surround, you must
connect your recorder to a DTS compatible
receiver through one of your recorder’s digital
audio outputs.
