You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit's DIGITAL OUT jacks to the digital input of an
amplifier, MD, etc. by using an optional digital cable (OPTICAL or COAXIAL). The digital audio signal from a disc is
directly transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by
using an optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
When you make the digital connection, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on
discs, no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.

NOTES
• When you connect the unit's DIGITAL OUT to digital audio equipment, before using, make the “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT”
setting in the “PREFERENCE 2” on-screen display correctly according to the connected audio equipment. If the “DIGITAL
AUDIO OUTPUT” is not set correctly, loud noise may be generated from speakers, causing damage to them. See “DIGITAL
AUDIO OUTPUT” on page 51.
• With the digital connection, the “COMPRESSION” settings in the “PREFERENCE 2” on-screen display are invalid. Settings for
these items must be made from the decoder.
