Receiving a digital audio signal
For the digital audio signal from your DVD player to reach your surround receiver, you need a
digital audio connection between the DVD player and receiver (Figure 10).
1. Use either the Optical or Coaxial input (not both) on the receiver to connect to the digital
output from the DVD.
2. Be sure to select the digital output in the setup menu of your DVD player.
For additional setup and operating information, please refer to the owner’s guide that came
with your surround receiver.
