Connecting to a Device with a Digital Input Terminal
By connecting the digital output from this player to the digital input terminal of a receiver etc., you can send the digital
audio signal from discs to external devices without changing the signal. Also, by connecting to Dolby Digital or DTS
decoders (or amplifiers with built-in decoders), you can enjoy high-quality surround audio.
After you have setup the connection...

DVD Audio digital output
When recording the DVD Audio multi-channel digital output, the digital output is downmixed to two channels.
What is DTS (Digital Theater System)?
DTS is a new surround format that has better data compression to Dolby Digital that delivers superior quality surround
playback of audio. It uses the same 5.1 channel that Dolby Digital uses, but due to lower audio compression during
recording it produces audio with more depth and high S/N playback. It's wide dynamic range allows it to produce
magnificent sound with excellent audio separation.
