Notes:
General Notes on connections
– If the audio format of the digital output does not
match the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver
will produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at
all. Make sure to select the appropriate audio
format at menu screen included on the disc.
Pressing AUDIO once or more may change not only
audio languages but also audio formats, and the
selected format appears for several seconds on the
status window.
Never make or change connections with the
power switched on.
● Depending on the equipment you wish to
connect, there are various ways you could
connect this player. Possible connections are
shown in the following drawings.
● Please refer to the manuals of other equipment as
necessary to make the best connections.
● Do not connect this player via your VCR. The
video quality could be distorted by the copy
protection system.
– MP3 Audio is not available on the Digital Output.
Analog Connections
● Do not connect this player’s audio out jack to the
phono in jack of your audio system.
Use audio/video cable supplied with this player to
connect the AUDIO OUT L (left) and R (right)
jacks to corresponding input jacks of your audio
equipment such as Stereo amplifier. You can
connect a subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER jack.
Digital Connections
This player has COAXIAL and OPTICAL digital
out jacks. Connect one or both of them to your
AV receiver equipped with Dolby digital, DTS, or
MPEG decoder using each specific cable (separate
purchase).

Video Connections
If your AV receiver has video output jacks,
connect your receiver (and then to your TV) so
that you can use one TV for several different
video sources (LD, VCR etc.) by simply switching
the input source selector of your receiver.
The player has three types of video output jacks.
Use one of them in accordance with the input
jacks of the equipment to be connected.
6
Preparation
Use commercially available coaxial cables.
S-Video jacks <A>
Receiver (and TV) with component input is
required. Observe the color of each jack when
connecting. If your receiver does not have
component output jacks, connecting the player’s
component output directly to your TV’s
component input can reproduce better video
image.
S (separate) video connection achieves a clearer
picture than composite video connection by
separating color and luminance when transmitting
signals. Use commercially available S-video cable.
Receiver (and TV) with S-video input is required.
Component Video jacks <B>
Component video connection achieves high
fidelity in reproducing colors (better performance
than S-video connection), separating video signal
into luminance (Y, terminal color-coded as green),
and color difference (Pb, blue/Pr, red).
Composite Video jacks <C>
Use audio/video cable supplied with this player
when connecting the player to a TV.

Dolby Surround-compatible: Select this setting
when using an equipment with a Dolby Surround
Pro Logic decoder. In this setting, the 5.1 audio
channels (Dolby Digital, MPEG-2, DTS) are
downmixed to a Dolby Surround-compatible 2-
channel output.
3D-Sound: In a setup without rear speakers
(analog stereo output), 3D Sound remixes the six
channels of digital surround into a two-speaker
output while retaining all of the original audio
information. The result is the listening sensation of
being surrounded by multiple speakers.
– PCM Output
Allows to select PCM digital output between
48kHz and 96kHz. When 48kHz has been
selected, 96kHz PCM data, (if available on disc)
will be converted to 48kHz.
Some 96kHz DVD are copy protected. If your
PCM output selection is 96kHz, the digital output
is downsampled to 48KHz.
– Sub-woofer Cut-off
The frequency of the subwoofer output can be
set to High (200Hz) or Low (100Hz) to match
your system’s playback sound quality.
During DVD or Video-CD playback, these values
can be selected directly with SOUND MODE.
