Enjoying High Quality Sounds
Playing 2 Channel Audio with an
Analogue Connection
NOTE
• When connecting audio equipment using analogue
connection, we recommend that you set “DVD AUDIO
OUT LEVEL” to “NO” (see page 112).
If you set to “YES”, audio may sound abnormal during
disc playback.
Playing Dolby Digital,
DTS or MPEG Audio with a
Digital Connection
• Connecting an amplifier with a Dolby Digital/DTS/MPEG
Audio digital surround processor or a Dolby Digital/DTS/
MPEG Audio digital surround amplifier to the Recorder’s
coaxial or optical DIGITAL AUDIO Output jack (terminal)*
provides richer, more powerful audio play.
• To enjoy DTS Digital Surround audio, select DTS audio at
the disc menu during DVD playback, or select DTS audio
using the AUDIO button (under the cover) of the remote
control.
■ Connection to a processor or amplifier with an optical
or coaxial digital input jack (terminal)*

Important!
• When using this connection, set the applicable type of
signal (Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG) in “DGTL AUDIO
OUT SET” to “BITSTREAM” (see page 112).
NOTE
• For bilingual broadcast or playback of titles that recorded
bilingual broadcast, digital audio output cannot be
switched. (If the processor or amplifier has digital audio
output switching function, switch from the end of the
audio equipment.)
• When playing back DVD video recorded with 96 kHz
(LPCM) audio format, output audio is down-converted to
48 kHz.
• To play a disc recorded with DTS, you need to use DTS
processor or amplifier.
• This connection is not possible if the processor or
amplifier to which you want to connect does not have an
optical or coaxial digital input jack (terminal).
• Refer to the operation manual for the processor or
amplifier for information about connecting to it.
