CONNECTING TO A DOLBY DIGITAL DECODER
OR DTS DECODER (for DVD)
If using this TV/DVD/VHS to play back a TV/DVD/VHS in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround or DTS
surround format, the TV/DVD/VHS outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its COAXIAL digital
audio out jack. By hooking the player up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy a more convinc-
ing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard such as can
be heard in movie theaters.
Use audio coaxial digital cables (commercially available) for the audio connections.
NOTES:
•
Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.
•
Refer to the Owner's Manuals for the components to be connected to the TV/DVD/VHS.
•
If connected to a Dolby Digital decoder, set DOLBY DIGITAL to ON for audio output in the setup mode.
•
If connected to a DTS decoder, set DTS to ON for audio output in the setup mode.
•
Unless connected to a Dolby Digital decoder or a DTS decoder, set DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS to OFF for
audio output in the setup mode. Playing a TV/DVD/VHS using incorrect settings may generate noise distor-
tion, and may also damage the speakers.
•
When DOLBY DIGITAL is set to OFF and VIRTUAL 3D to ON for audio output in the setup mode and
you select the audio source in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround format, the audio will be muted.
