Preparation
Connecting to an amplifier equipped with two
channel digital stereo (PCM) or to an
Audio/Video receiver equipped with a multi-
channel decoder (Dolby Digital™, MPEG 2, or
DTS)
1. Connect the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT jacks (COAXIAL X) to the corresponding
in jack on your amplifier. Use a digital (COAXI-
AL X) audio cable.
2. You will need to activate the DVD+VCR’s digi-
tal output. (See “AUDIO” on page 18).
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 DVD+VCR
(MPEG 2, Dolby Digital and DTS). Check the
receiver manual and the logos on the front of the
receiver.
Caution:
This DVD+VCR is not equipped with DTS decoder,
but DTS will be output through Digital coaxial out
when DTS audio stream is selected in DVD disc
soundtrack menu.
Notes:
If the audio format of the digital output does not match
the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will pro-
duce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.
Six Channel Digital Surround Sound via digital con-
nection can only be obtained if your receiver is
equipped with a Digital Multi-channel decoder.
To see the audio format of the current DVD in the
on-screen display, press A.MONITOR.
