Connecting the DPS-5.9—Continued
Notes:
• Before making any connections, turn off the DPS-5.9
and your TV and disconnect their power cords from
the wall outlets.
• Also refer to the connection information supplied with
your TV.
• Connect the DPS-5.9’s video outputs directly to your
TV. Don’t connect a VCR or other video equipment in
between your DPS-5.9 and TV. Doing so may result in
picture distortion, because of the copy protection sys-
tem used on DVD-Video discs.
• When you use the analog audio outputs, don’t play
DTS CDs or don’t select DTS soundtracks on
DVD-Video discs. Doing so will produce unpleasant
digital noise, which may damage your equipment.
Analog Connection
Use an RCA audio cable to connect the DPS-5.9’s ANA-
LOG AUDIO OUTPUTs to a pair of analog audio inputs
on your AV receiver, as shown.
Digital Connection
To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS surround sound, you
need to connect one of the DPS-5.9 digital audio outputs
to the digital input on a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or
an AV receiver with built-in decoders.
Use an optical (or coaxial) digital audio cable to connect
the DPS-5.9’s COAXIAL (or OPTICAL) DIGITAL
AUDIO OUTPUT to an optical (or coaxial) input on
your AV receiver, as shown.
• When the HDMI Output setting is set to On (see
pages 27, 46), the DPS-5.9 cannot output progres-
sive video. To output progressive video, you must
set the HDMI Output setting to Off (see pages 27,
46), and set the Progressive setting to Progressive
(see pages 27, 46).
• When the Progressive setting is set to Progressive
so that progressive video is output by the COM-
PONENT VIDEO OUTPUT, and the PROGRES-
SIVE indicator is shown, nothing is output by the
VIDEO (composite video) and S VIDEO
(S-Video) outputs. To output video from these
outputs, you must set the Progressive setting to
Interlace (see pages 27, 46).
