Connecting a DVD player
Different DVD players offer a different selection of
connections, but all should give you at least a digital
audio output, stereo analog audio outputs and a video
output. Additionally, you may have a player with
multichannel analog audio outputs and different kinds of
video outputs to choose from.
1 Connect a coaxial digital audio output on your
DVD player to the DIGITAL 1 (DVD/LD) input on this
amplifier.
• Use a coaxial cable designed for digital audio for the
connection.
• If your DVD player only has an optical digital output,
you can connect it to one of the optical inputs on this
amplifier using an optical cable. When you set up the
amplifier you’ll need to tell the amplifier which input
you connected the player to (see also Assigning the
digital inputs on page 83).
2 If your DVD player only has stereo analog audio
outputs, connect these to the DVD/LD AUDIO inputs
on this amplifier.
• Use standard RCA/phono jack cables for the
connections.
• If your DVD player has multichannel analog outputs,
see Connecting the multichannel analog outputs
below for how to connect it.
3 Connect a composite or S-video output on your
DVD player to the DVD/LD VIDEO or DVD/LD S2
VIDEO input on this amplifier.
• Use a standard video cable or an S-video cable for the
connection.
• If your player also has a component video output, you
can connect this too. See Using the component video
jacks on page 20 for more on this.
