text on the page to read as follows:
You can connect an alternate audio/video source such as another DVD player by following the
diagram.

either the Optical1 or Coaxial digital audio input to the corresponding DCP501 video input
source by using the INPUT SETUP screens. If the DVD player is connected to the

Operation
Setting Up Audio
Page 46 — Change the first paragraph to read as follows:
This section includes information about setting up speakers and selecting audio inputs. During
playback from an external source such as a VCR, the DCP501 automatically selects which audio
input to use. If the audio input is digital, always use a digital input. Once a digital input is
assigned to a particular source, the DCP501 always uses the assigned digital audio input
instead of the analog audio input if both are present for the same source. You must select
various input sources from the INPUT SETUP menu so the DCP501 knows which digital inputs
are assigned. The DCP501 display shows the current audio input used by the selected source:
OPT1, OPT2, COAX, or ANALOG. For digital audio inputs only, the DCP501 turns on an
icon to distinguish the digital input type:
PCM, DTS, or D DIGITAL.

have a surround mode selected, you cannot make adjustments to the rear speakers. Similarly, if
you do have a center speaker in the selected mode, you cannot make adjustments to the center
speaker. You must set the DCP501 to an audio mode that uses the center channel and/or the
surround channels in order to make adjustments to the center speaker and/or surround
speakers. The factory setting is
YES. To change the subwoofer settings on the DCP501:
