Optional Audio Connections
This DVD Player provides numerous ways to take full advantage of the digital multi channel sound recorded on DVD media.
When listening to DVD-Audio
For full enjoyment of DVD-Audio media, it is recommended to make connections to the 6-channel ANALOG OUTPUT jacks. Audio output
of DVD-Audio cannot be played back efficiently when output as a bitstream or PCM from the DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.
Analog connections
In addition to offering two stereo outputs for connection to a stereo system, two types of multi channel analog output allow you to
make connections to an AV component that features multi channel analog input for full enjoyment of multi channel DVD-Audio discs.

Making stereo audio connections
Using an audio cable (sold separately), make audio
connections from the ANALOG OUTPUT CH1 or CH2 L
and R jacks to the corresponding jacks on the stereo
component.
Be sure to set Audio Out Select to “Analog 2Ch” using
the on-screen menu explained in “Customizing the
Function Settings” starting on page 46. See page 50 for
direct information.
Notes
• Be sure to match the colors of the plugs on the cable with the
corresponding jacks on the DVD Player and the stereo
component: red for R (right) audio and white for L (left) audio.
• Do not make connections to the PHONO or TUNER jacks on
the stereo component.
Making discrete 6-channel ANALOG OUTPUT
connections
The discrete ANALOG OUTPUT jacks are intended to deliver up to 5.1
channels of multi channel audio from DVD-Audio sources. Connections
can be made from the ANALOG OUTPUT FRONT, SURR (surround),
CENTER, and SUBWOOFER jacks to the corresponding input jacks on an
AV component with multi channel discrete audio input jacks.
Notes
• The audio of DVD-Audio that have been recorded in multi channel audio is
output from the 5.1channel ANALOG OUTPUT jacks regardless of the Audio
Out Select setting. In order to enjoy the audio of DVD-Audio, it is necessary to
make connections to the 5.1channel ANALOG OUTPUT jacks. Additionally,
please note that there is no audio output from the DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.
•When a DVD-Video has been recorded in multi channel audio, the audio is
downmixed to a 2-channel stereo mix and output from the ANALOG OUTPUT
jacks (CH1, CH2, or FRONT).
• To ensure proper delivery of sound, be sure to match the names of the jacks
on the DVD Player and the component being connected to.
