5.1 Channel Surround Hookups - Sony DVP-F11X Operating Instructions Manual

5.1 Channel Surround Hookups

With DVDs which contain DTS, Dolby Digital or MPEG
audio sound, you can enjoy the sorround sound while
producing the effect of being in a movie theater or a
concert hall, using a digital component with a built-in
DTS, Dolby Digital or MPEG decoder (not supplied). The
player outputs the surround sound signals from the
OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors.
Using a receiver (amplifier) having the OPTICAL or
COAXIAL connector and the 6 speakers, you can enjoy
even greater real audio presence in the comfort of your
own home.
Note
When a DVD has a sound track with 7.1 channels recorded in
MPEG audio format, the output audio signals are mixed down to
5.1 channels.
