Connecting the audio cables
This connection enables you to listen to 
the playback from this recorder. 
However, this connection is not required 
if this recorder is connected to the TV 
using a HDMI cable.
Option 1: Using an audio cable
You can connect the recorder to a two 
channel stereo system (mini system, TV) 
or receiver in order to enjoy the stereo 
sound system.
  Use an audio cable (red/white ends) to 
connect the AUDIO L/R OUTPUT 
jacks to the audio input jacks of the 
connected device.

Option 2: Using a coaxial cable
You can connect the recorder to an AV 
amplifi er/receiver with a digital multi-
channel sound decoder in order to enjoy 
multichannel surround sound.
  Use a coaxial cable (not supplied.) 
Connect the COAXIAL (DIGITAL 
AUDIO)
 jack on the recorder to the 
digital input jack on the amplifi er/
receiver.
Before you start operating, set the digital
audio output settings accordingly (see the 
section “PLAYBACK settings – Digital 
Audio Output”.)
If the setting does not match your 
stereo’s capabilities, the stereo may 
produce a strong, distorted sound or no 
sound at all.
Helpful Hint:
– Do not connect your TV’s audio output 
jacks to the AUDIO-L/-R INPUT jacks on this 
recorder, this may cause unwanted noise.
TIPS:  Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected 
from the power outlet.
