You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit’s DIGITAL OUT jacks to the digital input of an
amplifier, etc. by using an optical or a coaxial digital cable (optional). The digital audio signal from a disc is directly
transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by using an
optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
For digital connection, connect the unit’s DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to the digital input of digital audio device
using an optical or a coaxial digital cable.
Note that the DIGITAL OUT jacks on the unit have been designed and equipped exclusively for enjoying the digital
surround sound playback through the unit. It is not recommended to use the jacks for digital dubbing. When recording
the sounds (DVD AUDIO, DVD VIDEO, SVCD, Video CD, or Audio CD) played back on the unit, record them through the
analog jacks (in this case, set “ANALOG OUT” in the “AUDIO” preference display to “2-CH STEREO”) (see page 61).

NOTES
• When you connect the unit’s DIGITAL OUT to a digital audio device, before using, set “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” in the
“AUDIO” preference display correctly according to the connected audio device. If “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” is not set correctly,
loud noise may be generated from speakers, causing damage to them. See “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” on page 60.
• When you connect the unit’s DIGITAL OUT to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder (or amplifier with a built-in decoder) to enjoy
surround sound, the unit’s “D. RANGE COMPRESSION” setting in the “AUDIO” preference display is invalid. Make appropriate
surround audio settings on the decoder.
• If your digital audio device has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV COMPU LINK function. See “AV COMPU LINK
remote control system” on page 71 for details.
