5.1 Input Hookups - Sony STR-DB925 Operating Instructions Manual

5.1 Input Hookups

Although this receiver incorporates a multi channel
decoder, it is also equipped with 5.1 INPUT jacks. These
connections allow you to enjoy multi-channel software
encoded in formats other than Dolby Digital (AC-3) and
DTS. If your DVD player is equipped with 5.1 OUTPUT
jacks, you can connect them directly to this unit to enjoy
the sound of the DVD player's multi channel decoder.
Alternatively, the 5.1 INPUT jacks can be used to connect
an external multi channel decoder.
To fully enjoy multi channel surround sound, you will
need five speakers (two front speakers, two rear speakers,
and a center speaker) and a subwoofer. Refer to the
instruction manual supplied with your DVD player, multi
channel decoder, etc., for details on the 5.1-channel input
hookups.
