1 Analogue stereo (with or without subwoofer)
The Sonata DV30 is capable of playing Dolby Digital or LPCM soundtracks itself and
outputting these as analogue 2.1. To connect to a stereo receiver (such as the
matching AR30 or DR30) or amplified speaker system, use stereo phono/RCA cables
as shown.
If you have an AR30 or DR30 and subwoofer, you can also connect the DV30's
subwoofer output to the receiver's subwoofer input, and the receiver's subwoofer
output to your subwoofer.
2 Digital audio
The digital audio outputs can be used to send the surround-sound soundtracks of
DVDs to an external AV receiver (Note: SPDIF output must be set to 'RAW Bitstream'
in the Audio Setup menu). The Sonata DV30 sends an undecoded audio bitstream to
the AV receiver for decoding into 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1, etc.
Either a 75ohm co-axial cable designed for digital audio or a TOSlink fibre optic cable
should be used (only one at a time).
Note: It is also possible to output stereo digital audio from the Digital Outputs for
recording on conventional CD-R/MD machines, etc. See the section on DVD player
setup for more information.

The HDMI output can send audio and video either directly to a TV or via an AV receiver
for decoding surround-sound, etc. See page 15 for more information.
