A digital multi-channel connection provides the
best sound quality. For this you need a
multi-channel audio/video receiver that supports
one or more of the audio formats supported by
your recorder, including MPEG 2, Dolby Digital
and DTS. Check the receiver manual and the
logos on the front of the receiver to verify this.

Accessory audio/video (A/V) connections
To connect the recorder to an accessory
component:

Connect the AV IN 1 or AV 2 IN jacks on the
recorder to the audio/video out jacks on your
accessory component, such as a VCR or
camcorder, using the optional audio/video

Connecting a digital camcorder
•
Use a DV cable (not supplied) to connect the
DV in/out jack of your DV digital camcorder to
the front panel DV IN jack of your recorder.

• Due to the DTS Licensing agreement,
the digital output will be in DTS digital
out when DTS audio stream is
selected.
• If the audio format of the digital output
does not match the capabilities of your
receiver, the receiver will produce a
strong, distorted sound or no sound at
all.

your receiver must have a Digital
