Connecting to audio equipment

Connecting to A/V receiver or A/V
amplifier with digital Multi-channel
decoder
The best possible sound quality is obtained by
connecting your DVD recorder to an A/V receiver with
Multi-channel decoder (Dolby Digital, MPEG 2 and DTS).
Digital Multi-channel sound
Digital Multi-channel connection provides the optimum
sound quality. For this you need a Multi-channel A/V
receiver that supports one or more of the audio types
supported by your DVD recorder (MPEG 2, Dolby
Digital and DTS). For this you can check the receiver
manual and the logos on the front of the receiver.
Connect the recorder's digital audio output to the
corresponding input on the receiver. Use a digital
coaxial cable (7) or a digital optical audio cable (8).
If you do not have a digital coaxial audio cable, you may
use the supplied video cable (4).
Note:
If the audio type of the digital output does not match the
capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will produce a
strong, distorted sound. The audio type of the DVD disc in
play is displayed in the Status Window, when changing the
language. 6 Channel Digital Surround Sound via digital
connection can only be obtained if your receiver is equipped
with a Digital Multi-channel decoder.
