Connecting The Digital Output - Pioneer DV-585A-K Operating Instructions Manual

02 Connecting up
Connecting the multichannel analog
outputs
If your AV receiver has 5.1 channel analog
inputs, we recommend connecting this player
to it using the multichannel analog outputs.
Doing this will ensure that you can enjoy all
kinds of disc, including Dolby Digital and DTS
DVD-Video discs, as well as high sampling rate
and multichannel DVD-Audio and SACD discs.
• Connect the MULTICHANNEL AUDIO
outputs on this player to the multi-channel
audio inputs on your AV receiver.
It's convenient to use three stereo audio
cables; one for the FRONT, one for the
SURROUND and one for the CENTER and
SUBWOOFER channels.

You can use the SCART AV connector, or the S-
video or component video jacks to connect to
the AV receiver if you prefer.
Tip
• After connecting up and switching on, you
should change the Audio Output Mode
setting in the Initial Setup menu from the
default 2 Channel to 5.1 Channel. See
also Audio Output Mode on page 40.

Connecting the digital output

This player has both optical and coaxial-type
digital audio outputs for connection to an AV
receiver. Connect whichever is convenient.
Depending on the capabilities of your AV
receiver, you might have to set up this player to
output only digital audio in a compatible
format. See Digital Audio Out settings on
page 34 and refer to the operating instructions
that came with your AV receiver.
Note that SACD audio is not output through
these jacks, so this connection should be in
addition to, rather than instead of, a 5.1
channel analog connection.
• Connect one of the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jacks on this player to a digital input on
your AV receiver.
