Connecting to an Audio
Amplifier or Receiver
You will get better sound quality if you con-
nect the audio outputs of the RDV-995 to a
high quality amplifier or receiver and use
component loudspeakers, rather than those
built in to the television.
Connect the ANALOG OUTPUTS
of the
RDV-995 to any high level input (such as AUX,
DVD, CD, etc.) of an amplifier or receiver.
Connecting to Audio
Equipment with a Digital Input
You can enhance the sound quality by con-
necting the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT
or
COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTPUT
of the
RDV-995 to the digital input of an amplifier,
DAT or MD by using an optional digital cable.
The digital stereo audio signal from a disc is
directly transferred. If you connect the unit to
a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an ampli-
fier with built-in decoder by using an optional
digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality sur-
round sound.
When you make the digital connection, also
make the analog connection, because, de-
pending on the disc type, no audio may be
reproduced from the DIGITAL OUTPUT.
With the digital connection, the Preference
menu settings for COMPRESSION and DOWN
MIX are disabled. Settings for these items must
be made from the decoder.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 5.1 CHANNEL OPERATION:
If the “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” is not set correctly, loud noise may be generated from speakers, possibly damaging them. Before using
the RDV-995 in a 5.1 channel system, be sure the proper type of Digital Audio Output has been selected. Use the following procedure.
While the RDV-995 is stopped or no disc is loaded press RETURN-CHOICE
