Teac Esoteric DV-50 Owner's Manual page 9

CAUTION:
< Switch off the power to all equipment before making connections.
< Read the instructions of each component you intend to use with this unit.
< Be sure to insert each plug securely. To prevent hum and noise, avoid bundling the signal
interconnection cables together with the AC power cord or speaker cables.
A
2 channel high quality AUDIO OUT terminals
The XLR and RCA terminals output 2 channel analog audio. The sound output from these terminals
is superior in quality.
If your amplifier has XLR analog inputs, connect the XLR outputs of the DV-50 to the appropriate
inputs of the amplifier with commercially available balanced XLR cables.
If there are no XLR input terminals on the amplifier, use commercially available RCA cables to
connect the RCA outputs of the DV-50 to the appropriate inputs of the amplifier.
B
DIGITAL OUT terminals
Connect one of the digital output terminals to the appropriate digital input terminal of a digital
device such as a decoder, CD recorder, MD deck, etc.
Use a commercially-available RCA coaxial cable or optical digital cable.
When inserting the plug of the optical cable, the protective shutter of the terminal 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.
< Select the proper digital output setting in accordance with your connection.
C
5.1CH AUDIO OUT terminals
5.1 channel analog audio is output from these terminals.
If your amplifier has 5.1 channel analog inputs, connect them with commercially-available RCA
cables.
< Select "5.1" in the setup menu.(See page 15, 37)
D
2CH AUDIO OUT terminals
2 channel analog audio is output from these terminals.
E
SIGNAL GND
You may improve the sound quality by connecting the earth terminal of DV-50 and the amplifier
using a commercial PVC-covered electric cord.
< This is not a safety earth.
If you listen to multi-channel 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.
Some DVD-Audio and all SACD audio is output only through the analog outputs.
If you want to enjoy multi-channel sound of DVD-Audio and SACD, use the 5.1CH AUDIO OUT
terminals.
