(See p. 50.) *2 Sound having 96 KHz sampling is converted into 48 KHz sampling when it is output from the DECK’s optical digital audio output connector. For Your Reference: Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique developed by the Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo (2-channel) sound, this technique enables a large quantity of sound data to be efficiently recorded on a disc. Linear PCM is a signal recording format used in CDs. While CDs are recorded in 44.1 KHz/16 bit, DVDs are recorded in 48 KHz/16 bit up to 96 KHz/24 bit. If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1 channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as from titles with the Dolby Surround mark. For information on Panasonic or Technics Dolby Pro Logic Surround Sound Decoders please contact your local dealer. Audio Connections Ready Checklist Turn down the volume, then turn DECK, as well as other equipment to be connected, off before proceeding with connection. Do not block ventilation holes of any of the equipment and arrange them so that air can circulate freely. Read through the instructions before connecting other equipment. Ensure that you observe the color coding when connecting audio and video cables.

[email protected] DECK Decoder with Dolby Digital Amplifier Speaker or dts (digital theater systems) When DVDs recorded in Dolby Digital or dts are played, Dolby Digital bitstream or dts bitstream is output from the DECK optical digital audio output connector. When DECK is connected to a Dolby Digital decoder or dts decoder, you can enjoy theater-quality audio in your home. [An optical digital audio cable (optional) is required when an optional Dolby Digital decoder or dts decoder is used.] Notes on connecting an optical digital audio cable (optional) Firmly connect the cable to the connector. Caution for Optical Digital Audio Output Connector: When connecting an amplifier (with an optical digital input connector) which does not contain the Dolby Digital or dts decoder, be sure to select “OFF” at “Dolby Digital” and “OFF” at “dts” of the Settings for DVD Operation “AUDIO OUTPUT” (see p. 50). Otherwise, any attempt to play DVDs may cause such a high level of noise that it may be harmful to your ears and damage your speakers. When a dts decoder is connected, please select“Bitstream” at “dts” of the Settings for DVD Operation “AUDIO OUTPUT”. If “OFF” is selected, there will be no sound. (See p. 50). Video CDs and CDs can be played as normal. Note: Some dts decoders which do not support DVD-dts interface may not work properly with DECK.
