By hooking the player up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy a more convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard, which can be heard in movie theaters. Use an audio coaxial or optical digital cable (not included) for the audio connections.
[Fig. 4]
Notes
¡Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component. ¡Refer to the Owner’s Manuals for the components to be connected to the DVD player. ¡If output is Dolby Digital audio, connect to a Dolby Digital decoder and set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “ON”
for audio output in the setup mode.
¡If output is DTS audio, connect to a DTS decoder and set “DTS” to “ON” for audio output in the setup mode. ¡Unless connected to a Dolby Digital decoder or a DTS decoder, set “DOLBY DIGITAL” or “DTS” to “OFF”
for audio output in the setup mode. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion and may also damage the speakers.
