Getting started
You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit's DIGITAL OUT jacks to the digital input of an
amplifier, MD, etc. by using an optical or a coaxal digital cable (optional). The digital audio signal from a disc is directly
transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by using an
optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
When you make digital connection, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on discs,
no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.
When using the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL)jack, remove the protection
[_J,I cap. Do not lose the removed cap.
