Connecting to an AV
amplifier or receiver
To enjoy multichannel surround sound you
need to connect this recorder to an AV amp/
receiver using the digital coaxial output. In
addition to the digital connection, we
recommend also connecting using the
stereo analog connection.
You'll probably also want to connect a video
output to your AV amp/receiver. Use the
standard (composite) video output (as
shown here), or the S-video or component
video connections.
See also Audio Out on page 109 for how to
set up the digital audio output. (Noise may
be output from your speakers if the recorder
is not set up to work with your AV amp/

receiver.)

Important
• Do not connect this recorder to your TV
'through' your VCR or other component
using A/V cables. Always connect it
directly to your TV.
Note
1 If your AV amp/receiver doesn't have an coaxial digital input, but has a optical type, converter boxes that convert
20
from coaxial to optical are available at specialist audio dealers.
