DVD-5900 and AVR-5803/5800 Upgrade
Audio Setup Tips
The following setup guidelines are recommended for the DVD-5900 player and the AVR-5803/5800
upgraded units (both units to be referred to hereafter as AVR-580x) utilizing the DENON Link SE to provide
for the highest playback performance and ease of use for DVD-Audio/Super Audio CD material as well as
DVD-Video audio.
When using the DENON Link SE to transport Dolby and dts data, as well as DVD-Audio, from the DVD-5900
to the AVR-580x SE you must do the following:
§ CONNECT THE DENON LINK CABLE FROM THE DVD-5900 TO THE AVR-580X. FOR
SUPER AUDIO CD YOU WILL NEED TO CONNECT 3 PAIRS OF HIGH QUALITY ANALOG
CABLES FROM THE 5.1 ANALOG OUTPUTS TO EITHER EXT. IN 1 OR 2 INPUTS ON THE
AVR-580X. BE SURE ON THE DVD-5900 TO USE THE FL (FRONT LEFT) AND FR (FRONT
RIGHT) ‘1’ LABELLED OUTPUTS HERE
CABLES FROM THE 5.1 ANALOG OUTPUTS TO EITHER EXT. IN 1 OR 2 INPUTS ON THE
AVR-580X. BE SURE ON THE DVD-5900 TO USE THE FL (FRONT LEFT) AND FR (FRONT
RIGHT) ‘1’ LABELLED OUTPUTS HERE
§ WE ALSO RECOMMEND CONNECTING A SINGLE PAIR OF ANALOG CABLES FROM THE
DVD-5900S ‘FL/FR 2’ AUDIO OUTPUTS TO AN UNUSED STEREO INPUT SOURCE, LIKE
‘CD’.
‘CD’.
Ø
This will permit 2 Channel SACD, or CD, listening in ‘Stereo’, ‘Direct’ or ‘Pure Direct’ modes
and maintain your subwoofer (2.1 channel playback). Only in the these modes, are the
analog signals NOT converted to digital.
and maintain your subwoofer (2.1 channel playback). Only in the these modes, are the
analog signals NOT converted to digital.
NOTE: THE ANALOG CABLE CONNECTION RECOMMENDATIONS ARE NOT NEEDED IF YOU
DECIDE TO LET THE AVR-5803 PERFORM ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERSION ON THE EXT
INPUTS AS THE RECEIVER WILL DO BASS MANAGEMENT ON ALL ANALOG SIGNALS (2
CHANNEL AND MULTI-CHANNEL) AND ROUTE INFORMATION TO YOUR SUBWOOFER.
ALSO IF YOU USE THE A/D CONVERSION INSIDE THE AVR-580X, YOU WILL NOTICE MUCH
BETTER, AND CONSISTANT, SUBWOOFER PERFORMANCE – WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND
THIS OPTION AS THERE IS NO DEGRADATION OF THE SACD SIGNALS.

Now we need to setup the AVR-580x to accept the DENON Link and to know how to handle the SACD
analog signals, allowing the player and receiver to switch between the Link and EXT. Inputs automatically.
§ ACCESSING THE ‘SYSTEM SETUP’ FUNCTION OF THE AVR-580X, TOGGLE DOWN TO
‘DIGITAL MULTI CH IN’ (PAGE 2 OF SETUP MENU), PRESS ENTER.
