Enjoying the Dolby Digital
(AC-3), MPEG AUDIO or DTS
Surround Sound
With DVDs which contain DTS, MPEG AUDIO or
Dolby Digital (AC-3) 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 or Dolby Digital (AC-3)
decoder (not supplied).
The player outputs the surround sound signals from
the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL
connectors.
For details on items in “INITIAL SETUP 3” in the setup
display, see page 40.
Hooking up the system
Connect the component via the DIGITAL OUT
OPTICAL or COAXIAL connector using an optical or
coaxial digital connecting cord (not supplied). You do
not need to connect both of these cords. See the figure
on the page 35.
Notes on connection
• Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet or press the
POWER switch before completing all connections.
• Refer to the instructions supplied with the component to be
connected.
Enjoying the Dolby Digital (AC-3) Surround
Sound
In the setup display, set “DIGITAL OUT” to “ON” and
then, “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “DOLBY DIGITAL” in

display, see page 36.
Notes
• If you connect the player to an audio component without a
built-in Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder and set “DOLBY
DIGITAL” to “D-PCM” in “INITIAL SETUP 3” , the output
signals via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL
connectors are mixed down to stereo when you play Dolby
Digital (AC-3) sound tracks.
• If the player is connected to an audio component without a
built-in Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoder, do not set “DOLBY
DIGITAL” in “INITIAL SETUP 3” to “DOLBY DIGITAL.”
Otherwise, when you play the Dolby Digital (AC-3) sound
track, a loud noise will come out from the speakers,
affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.
Enjoying the MPEG AUDIO Surround Sound
In the setup display, set “DIGITAL OUT” to “ON” and
then, “MPEG” to “MPEG” in “INITIAL SETUP 3.” For
details on using the setup display, see page 36.
Notes
• If you connect the player to an audio component without a
built-in MPEG decoder and set “MPEG” to “PCM” in
“INITIAL SETUP 3” , the player outputs stereo signals
taken from MPEG AUDIO signals via the DIGITAL OUT
OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors when you play MPEG
AUDIO sound tracks.
• If the player is connected to an audio component without a
built-in MPEG decoder, do not set “MPEG” in “INITIAL
SETUP 3” to “MPEG.” Otherwise, when you play the
MPEG AUDIO sound tracks, a loud noise will come out
from the speakers, affecting your ears or causing the
speakers to be damaged.
