Connecting to an AV receiver

To enjoy multichannel surround sound you need to connect this player to an AV receiver using the digital audio output. Model DV-470 has both optical and coaxial digital outputs; models DV-2750 and DV-370 have only a coaxial-type output. In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also connecting using the stereo analog connection. You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs available on this player (the illustration shows a standard (composite) connection).
