and video output jacks to an AV amplifier or other system
component (refer to pages 8 and 9).

• If you digitally connect the unit to an amplifier that does not
feature a DTS decoder, set DTS DIGITAL SURROUND to
PCM (factory default) in the Setup/Audio menu. Otherwise,
unprocessed digital signal noise will be output that may dam-
age your hearing or speakers.
