CONNECTING YOUR DCT6200 TO AN A/V RECEIVER, STANDARD DEFINITION TV, AND
STEREO VCR
If your equipment supports it, the optical (
OPTICAL SPDIF
) or coaxial (
SPDIF
) audio outputs may be used in
place of the stereo audio outputs (
AUDIO R
and L) described below. In most cases these outputs offer a
higher level of audio quality, including support for 5.1 surround sound.
If your equipment supports it, S-video connections may be used in place of the standard RCA video
connections described below. In most cases, S-video offers a higher level of standard definition video
quality than RCA video.
This video connection method doesn’t support high definition video. For more information, see
“Connecting your DCT6200 to an HDTV” on page 9.
For the connections described below you will need the following cables:
RF (75 ohm)
(supplied)
Audio
(3: one supplied;
