• When connecting an amplifier (with an Optical Digital Input Connector) which does not
contain the Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, be sure to select "PCM" at "Dolby Digital"
and "PCM" at "dts" of the Settings for DVD Operation "Audio Output" (see p. 50).
Otherwise, any attempt to play DVDs may cause such a high level of noise that it may
be harmful to your ears and damage your speakers.

"Dolby Digital" of the Settings for DVD Operation "Audio Output".
If "PCM" is selected, there will be stereo sound. (See p. 50.)
