Connecting
This chapter explains how to connect the DV-SP1000/
DV-SP1000E to your other AV components.
Read the manuals supplied with your AV components.
Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed
all audio and video connections.
Optical Digital Outputs
The DV-SP1000/DV-SP1000E’s
optical digital output sockets have
dust caps for keeping out dust and
dirt when they’re not in use. Remove
the cap before inserting an optical
plug, and push the plug in all the way
to make a good connection. Keep the
dust cap in a safe place for future use.
RCA AV Connection Color Coding
RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red,
white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-chan-
nel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use
white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and out-
puts (typically labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to
connect composite video inputs and outputs.
Push each plug in all the way to
make a good connection (loose
connections can cause noise or
malfunctions).
To prevent interference, keep
audio and video cables away
from power cords and speaker cables.

AV Cables & Connectors
Video
HDMI
HDMI connections can carry uncompressed,
standard or high definition digital video and up
to eight channels of digital audio, for the best
picture and sound quality.
Component
video
Component video connections separate the
luminance (Y) and color difference signals (P
R,
P
B) and provide picture quality better than
S-Video and composite video. (Some manufac-
turers label their component video sockets
slightly differently.)
The DV-SP1000/DV-SP1000E’s HD VIDEO
OUT COMPONENT sockets are BNC connec-
tors, except on the Canadian model, which has
RCA sockets.
S-Video
S-Video connections provide better picture
quality than composite video.
Composite video
Composite video is commonly used on TVs,
VCRs, and other video equipment. Use only
dedicated composite video cables.
SCART
(European
model only)
SCART connections carry video (RGB,
S-Video, and composite) and analog stereo
audio all in one cable.
