Connecting to an Audio System and TV with
COMPONENT VIDEO Inputs
■
It is also possible to “split” the audio and video signals by sending the video signal to your TV set and the audio
signal to an amplifier. Doing so has the advantage that you can:
• Listen to the sound of audio CDs and DVD videos in stereo (via the amplifier) or in Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic Surround or DTS
(see pages 12, 13);
• Enjoy a better picture quality of DVD videos on a TV equipped with Component Video inputs than would be possible via an S-video
connection.
Notes
• See also the manuals of your audio amplifier and TV set for establishing the correct connections and making the required settings.
• Before connecting the DVD Changer to other equipment, be sure to turn off the power and unplug all components from the wall outlet.
• This DVD Changer outputs a very dynamic audio signal. Be sure to set the amplifier’s volume to a moderate listening level to avoid
damaging your speakers due to sudden volume surges.
• Switch off the amplifier or select another input source before connecting or disconnecting the DVD Changer’s power cable. If you leave
the amplifier power on, the speakers may be damaged.
Your DV-C601 provides several options for audio playback: you can use the analog or one of the digital audio outputs. If your amplifier only
provides analog inputs, use the DV-C601’s ANALOG OUTPUTs and select them via the on-screen menu (“Analog 2ch”). See “Audio
Settings” on page 36 for details.

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (COLOR DIFFERENCE):
Some TVs or monitors are equipped with Color Difference inputs. Connecting the DV-C601 to these inputs allows you to enjoy a better
picture quality. Be sure to match the DV-C601’s VIDEO OUTPUTs with the Component Video inputs of your TV or monitor (see the
illustration).
Actual labels for the Color Difference inputs may vary depending on the TV manufacturer (e.g. Y, B-Y, R-Y, etc.).
On some TVs or monitors, the color levels of the picture may be reduced slightly, or the tint may change. In such cases, adjust the TV or
monitor for optimum performance.
Note:
• If you place the DVD Changer near a tuner or radio, the radio reception might be distorted due to interference. In this case, locate the DV-
C601 away from the tuner or radio.
