Connecting an A/V Receiver – Audio Only
There are three options available for audio connections to your A/V
receiver:
•
Optical (
OPTICAL SPDIF
)
•
Coaxial (
SPDIF
)
•
Stereo audio (
AUDIO
R
and
L
)
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). In most cases these outputs offer a higher level of audio
quality, including support for 5.1 surround sound.
•
Optical SPDIF: Connect the optical SPDIF cable to the
OPTICAL
SPDIF
connector on the DCT* and the
OPTICAL
connector on the A/V
receiver.
•
SPDIF: Connect the digital audio cable to the SPDIF connector on
the DCT* and the
DIGITAL INPUT COAX
connector on the A/V
receiver.
•
Stereo audio: Connect the stereo audio cable to the
AUDIO R
and
L
connectors on the DCT* and the
AUDIO LEFT
and
AUDIO RIGHT
connectors on the A/V receiver.
For information on configuring your DCT* settings, see “Optimizing Your
DCT* for High Definition TV.”
