Getting Started
5.1 Channel Surround Hookups
With DVDs which contain DTS, Dolby Digital or MPEG audio sound,
you can enjoy the surround sound while producing the effect of being
in a movie theater or a concert hall using a digital component with a
built-in DTS, Dolby Digital or MPEG decoder (not supplied). The
player outputs the surround sound signals from the OPTICAL OUT
connector.
Using a receiver (amplifier) having the OPTICAL OUT connector and
6 speakers, you can enjoy even greater real audio presence in the
comfort of your own home.
Note
When a DVD has a sound track with 7.1 channels recorded in MPEG audio format, the
output audio signals are mixed down to 5.1 channels.
Required cords
Optical digital connecting cord* (not supplied) (1)
S video cord (not supplied) (1)
* Connect the component via the OPTICAL OUT connector using an optical digital
connecting cord (not supplied). See the figure on the next page.
Notes
Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet before completing all connections.
Refer to the instructions supplied with the component to be connected.
The cord connectors should be fully inserted into the jacks. A loose connection may
cause hum and noise.
