Connect the Super Audio CD player to an audio
component. Be sure to turn off the power of all
components before making connections and connect
securely to prevent noise.

When you have an amplifier equipped with the 5.1CH
input jacks (multi-channel amplifier, AV amplifier, etc.)
and connect the player and the amplifier via ANALOG
5.1CH OUT jacks, you can play a multi-channel Super
Audio CD and enjoy the multi-channel playback.
For normal playback, connect the player and an amplifier
via ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks.

• When you make the Multi-channel connection, connect the

ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks also using another audio connecting
cord so that you can play a CD (or Super Audio CD) when you
set the input selector of your amplifier to CD (or Super Audio
CD) input .

• During playback of a conventional CD or a 2CH Super Audio

CD, the same signal that is output from the ANALOG 2CH
OUT jacks is also output from the ANALOG 5.1CH FRONT L/
R jacks.

• During playback of a Multi-channel Super Audio CD, the same

signal that is output from the ANALOG 5.1CH FRONT L/R
jacks is also output from the ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks. (The
down mixed signal of the Multi-channel signal is not played
back.)

• There are 5CH, 4CH, and 3CH Super Audio CD. When you

play these disc, the signal does not output from all the jacks of
the ANALOG 5.1CH OUT. For details of the playback, see the
cover or instructions of the Super Audio CD.

Use audio connecting cords for this connection. Connect the
ANALOG 5.1CH OUT jacks (FRONT L/R, SURR L/R, CENTER,
SUBWOOFER) to the corresponding jacks of your amplifier. For
FRONT or SURR connection, use the connecting cords (Red and
White jacks) (supplied) and be sure to match the colour-coded
pin to the appropriate jacks: white (left) to white and red (right)
to red. For CENTER and SUB WOOFER connection, use the
connecting cords (Black) (supplied).
