RDV-1045 DVD Player
Connecting to an Audio
Amplifier or Receiver
You will get better sound quality if you connect
the audio outputs of the RDV-1045 to a high
quality amplifier or receiver and use component
loudspeakers, rather than those built into the
television.
Connect the AUDIO OUTPUTS

of the
RDV-1045 to any high level input (such as AUX,
DVD, CD, etc.) of an amplifier or receiver.
Connecting to Audio Equipment
with a Digital Input
You can enhance the sound quality by connect-
ing the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT
-
of the
RDV-1045 to the digital input of an amplifier
or signal processor by using an optional digital
cable. The digital stereo audio signal from a
disc is directly transferred. If you connect the
unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an
amplifier with built-in decoder by using an
optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-
quality surround sound.
When you make the digital connection, also
make the analog connection
=
, because,
depending on the disc type, no audio may be
reproduced from the DIGITAL OUTPUT.
With the digital connection, the Preference menu
settings for COMPRESSION and DOWN MIX
are disabled. Settings for these items must be
made from the decoder.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT
DIGITAL SIGNAL CONNECTION:
The Digital Audio Output setting in the Audio Preferences on-screen display must be set so
the digital output of the RDV-1045 is compatible with the digital input of the component it is
connected to. If this preference setting is not done correctly,
loud noise may be generat-
ed which can damage the speakers. Before using the RDV-1045 with a digital signal
connection be sure the proper type of Digital Audio Output has been selected. See the Audio
Menu information in the Preferences Setting section of this manual.
NOTE: Bending an optical digital cable at a sharp angle can damage it. Use caution when
handling optical cables.
Some optical digital cables have a protective cover over the end of the plug. Be sure to re
-
move any covers before attempting to connect optical cables.
