to
the DIGITAL IN jack (black) of the processor.
The connected AV component may need to be set up for optical digital output. Read
their operating instructions of the connected device.
When connecting the processor to an AV amplifier, etc., connect the DIGITAL OUT
jack (Red) and external optical digital input jack using the optical digital connecting
cable (sold separately).
Notes
• The optical digital connecting cable is an extremely high-precision device and is sensitive to
jolts and external pressure. Therefore, be careful when inserting and removing the cable plug.
• The digital input for the processor does not support sampling frequencies of 96 kHz. Set the
digital output setting of the DVD device to 48 kHz when using this system. Noise may be
heard when a 96 kHz digital signal is input.

Connection to the optical digital output jack on your personal computer is not guaranteed to
work with this system.
DTS
•A DTS-compatible DVD device is required for playback of DVDs recorded in DTS audio. (For
more details, see the instruction manual of your DVD device.)
• When playing CDs recorded in DTS format, noise may occur when fast forwarding or
rewinding. This is not a malfunction.
• If the DTS digital output is set to “OFF” on the DVD device, no sound may be heard even if the
DTS output is selected in the DVD menu.
No sound may be heard when a DVD device and this unit is analog-connected. In this case,
use a digital connection.
