DVD Multichannel Connection
If your DVD player supports multichannel audio formats
such as SACD and DVD-Audio, and it has a multichan-
nel analog audio output, you can enjoy those formats.
Use a multichannel analog audio cable to connect the
TX-L55's DVD MULTI CH IN FR, FL, SL, SR, C, and
SW sockets to the multichannel analog audio output on
your DVD player, as shown. Alternatively, use three
standard analog audio cables.

nect it to only the TX-L55's DVD MULTI CH IN FL/
RL sockets, use the DVD player's 2-channel analog
audio output sockets.
