Otherwise, high volume sound may damage your
hearing as well as the speakers.
• When playing DTS-encoded discs (audio CDs),
excessive noise may be output from the analog audio
output jacks. To avoid possible damage to the audio
system, you should take proper precautions when the
analog audio output jacks of the DVD player are
connected to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS
Digital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel
DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be
connected to the BITSTREAM/PCM (DIGITAL) AUDIO
OUT jack of the DVD player.
Notes
• DO NOT connect the BITSTREAM/PCM (DIGITAL)
AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD player to the AC-3 RF input
of a Dolby Digital Receiver. This input on your A/V
Receiver is reserved for Laserdisc use only and is
incompatible with the BITSTREAM/PCM (DIGITAL)
AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD player.
• Connect the BITSTREAM/PCM (DIGITAL) AUDIO OUT
jack of the DVD player to the “DIGITAL (OPTICAL)” or
“DIGITAL (COAXIAL)” input of a Receiver or Processor.
• Refer to the owner’s manual of the connected equipment
as well.
• When you connect the DVD player to other equipment, be
sure to turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment
from the wall outlet before making any connections.
• The output sound of the DVD player has a wide dynamic
range. Be sure to adjust the receiver’s volume to a
moderate listening level. Otherwise, the speakers may be
damaged by a sudden high volume sound.
• Turn off the amplifier before you connect or disconnect the
DVD player’s power cord. If you leave the amplifier power
on, the speakers may be damaged.
