About the VF-1's digital output

The VF-1 provides a coaxial connector (DIGITAL OUTPUT)
for digital output.
This section explains how to make connections to other
devices when using the VF-1's DIGITAL OUT, and describes
the specifications of the digital signal that is output from the
VF-1.

The VF-1 transmits an EIAJ CP-1201, S/P DIF Format digital
audio signal.
About the EIAJ CP-1201 format
This is a format defined by the Electric Industries Association
of Japan for connections between consumer and broadcast
digital audio devices.
About S/P DIF Format
S/P DIF, short for Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format, is
one standard used for sending and receiving stereo digital
signals between digital devices.
Connecting the VF-1 to a
digital audio device
