6 BACK PANEL CABLE CONNECTIONS (Ctd.)
Analog connection: Connecting to a Receiver / Amplifier in
Analog 7.1 / 5.1 multichannel
Please use 8 interconnect cables to connect the FRONT-L (Front Left), FRONT-R
(Front Right), SURR-L (Surround Left), SURR-R (Surround Right), Center, SUB
(Subwoofer), REAR-L (Surround Back Left) and REAR-R (Surround Back Right),
analog output terminals of the Eidos 17 to the corresponding multi-channel analog
audio input of your A/V receiver or amplifier. If the A/V receiver or amplifier only has
5.1ch audio input, the REAR-L (Surround Back Left) and REAR-R (Surround Back
Right) terminals do not need to be connected and set the Down Mix option in the
Setup Menu to 5.1ch to make sure that any 7.1 channel signals are converted to 5.1
channels. Goldmund recommends using Goldmund Interco cables.
Connecting to a Stereo Audio System
If your audio system only offers stereo audio inputs, or if you would like to connect a
dedicated stereo system in addition to the surround system, you can connect it to the
FRONT-L & FRONT-R audio output terminals of the player.
NOTE
The stereo audio output terminals will always provide a down-mixed stereo signal
from multi-channel sources. The "Down Mix" and other speaker settings in the Audio
Processing Setup Menu do not affect the stereo audio output.
Speaker Configuration applies to the multi-channel analog audio outputs only. All
digital bitstream and LPCM outputs are unaffected by these settings.
