 About the Input/Output Connectors 
Caution:
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord
from the AC outlet.
Audio output (OUTPUT OPTICAL connector)
Use to connect MD recorders, CD recorders and other digital recording components. These connectors
output the digital signals from inputs 1 to 4.
Video outputs (MONITOR OUTPUT connectors)
Use to connect a television monitor or other video component.
Note:
The selection of S or composite connectors should match the selection on the signal input side. (If an S2
video input is used, use the S output connector; if the input is composite, use the composite output
connector as well).
SUB WOOFER OUTPUT connectors
Up to two sub-woofers can be connected.
Note:
Sub-woofers reproduce very low-frequency sound; coupled with the LFE (Low-Frequency Effect) channels
encoded in Dolby digital and DTS audio sources, these speakers produce sounds effects which heighten
the impact and realism of motion picture sound tracks and other sources.
INPUT 1 – 5 connectors
The digital sound projector is equipped with 5 input connector systems which can be combined in the ways
shown below. The various inputs can be selected by using the 
 to 
 or
