Basic Connections
Please refer to the instruction books of your TV,
VCR, Stereo System or other devices as
necessary to make the best connections.
Make one of the following connections,
depending on the capabilities of your existing
equipment.
The following guidelines are options for the best
picture and sound quality available on your
DVD/SACD player.
Picture
1 Use the CVBS Video Ouput for good picture
quality.
2 Use S-Video Output for the better picture
quality.
3 Use Component Video (Y CbPb CrPr) Output
for best picture quality.
Sound
1 Digital audio connections provide the clearest
sound. Connect the DVD players DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT (either COAXIAL or OPTICAL)
to your amplifier or receiver.
2 If digital connections are not possible, connect
the DVD players LEFT/RIGHT FRONT,
CENTER, SUBWOOFER, LEFT/RIGHT
SURROUND connectors to the corresponding
inputs on your multi-channel audio/video
receiver.
3 If both the above connections are not possible,
connect the DVD players Left and Right (white
and red) AUDIO OUT to your amplifier, receiver,
stereo or TV.
Warning!
Never make or change connections
with the power switched on.
Connect the DVD/SACD player directly
to your TV, instead of eg. a VCR, to avoid
distortion because DVD video discs are
copy protected.
Do not connect the DVD/SACD player
AUDIO OUT to the PHONO IN of your
amplifier or receiver.

depending on the capabilities of your existing
equipment.
