Audio Connections
This player features two digital (optical and coaxial) and also
analog audio output formats.
Digital Audio Connections
You can enjoy the digital audio recorded on discs from both
optical digital and coaxial digital output jacks.
When making digital audio connections, do not make
connections from both the coaxial and optical digital outputs to
the same component.
When a DVD recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG is
loaded, noise will be output if you have made connections via
the digital audio jacks to a receiver or amplifier that cannot
decode a Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG digital bitstream. In
this case, be sure to set up the Setup Navigator audio
settings to best reflect the type of system you are using (page
22). Additionally, the digital audio settings can be adjusted
manually in the Setup screen Audio 1 menu (pages 31–32).
DIGITAL OUT (Optical)
The digital signal is transmitted as light pulses through a
fiber-optic cable.
• Use to connect to an AV amplifier or receiver with built-in
Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG decoder.
• Use a fiber-optic cable (not supplied) to connect the
DIGITAL OUT OPT (digital optical output) on the player to
the digital optical input on an AV amplifier or receiver.
DIGITAL OUT (Coaxial)
The digital signal is transmitted electronically through a
coaxial cable.
• Use to connect to an AV amplifier or receiver with built-in
Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG decoder.
• Use a coaxial cable (not supplied) to connect the DIGITAL
OUT COAX (coaxial digital output) on the player to the
coaxial digital input on an AV amplifier or receiver.

Analog Audio Connection
After making physical connections to either the AUDIO OUT
FRONT or AUDIO OUT (5.1 channel) analog jacks, be sure to
identify which output you are going to be using in the [Analog
Jacks] screen of the Setup Navigator (page 21). You can also
manually set the output in the [Audio Out] setting of the Setup
screen Audio 2 menu (page 33).
Notes
• When [5.1 Channel] is selected, the front right (R) and left (L)
audio channels are output from the AUDIO OUT RIGHT and
LEFT jacks.
• The [Audio Out] setting creates an audio output default for the
player. If connections are made to both AUDIO OUT RIGHT and
LEFT and AUDIO OUT (5.1 channel) analog jacks to make
different audio connections for multichannel and stereo audio
sources.
2 CHANNEL AUDIO OUT
• Make analog audio connections to a stereo amplifier or
receiver.
• Analog audio connections can also be made to a TV or
monitor with stereo input jacks.
• Use the supplied audio cable to connect one of the AUDIO
OUT RIGHT and LEFT jacks on the player to the audio
input on the stereo amplifier or receiver.
• When making analog audio connections, be sure to match
the color of the plugs with the color of the jacks (red and
white).
• When making this kind of connection, be sure to select [2
Channel] in the Setup Navigator [Analog Jacks] screen
(page 21).
