Connect to the coaxial or optical input of your
amplifier, if it has digital inputs.
Connecting analog audio cables
Be sure to fully insert each plug for the best connection.
The plugs and jacks are colour-coded to make connection
easier.
Connecting optical cables
Optical interconnects only plug in one
way, so make sure the plug is correctly
lined up with the jack before inserting.
You should hear it click into position
when fully inserted. When inserting
the plug, the protective shutter will
open and you should hear it click into
position when fully inserted. Be careful that you do not
force the plug, because this could result in damage to the
protective shutter, the cable, or the unit itself.

Note
If you listen to multichannel DVD-Audio through one of the digital
outputs, it will be downmixed to stereo. Also, high sampling rate
DVD-Audio (192kHz or 176.4kHz) will be downsampled to 96kHz,
88.2kHz, 48kHz or 44.1kHz, depending on the disc. Multi channel
and high sampling rate DVD-Audio is only available through the
analog outputs.
All DVD-Audio and all Super Audio CD audio is output only
through the analog outputs.
Plug into a standard AC wall
outlet.
