Connecting the DV-SP502/DV-SP502E—Continued

You can connect this player to your AV receiver using the 
multichannel analog outputs or one of the digital out-
puts. In addition to these connections, you should also 
connect the 2 channel analog outputs for compatibility 
with all discs. You’ll probably also want to connect a 
video output to your AV receiver. You can use any of the 
video outputs available on this player.

Before connecting
• When you connect the DV-SP502/DV-SP502E to the 

amplifier, be sure to turn off the power and unplug 
both units from the mains before making any connec-
tions. Otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.

• Connect the plugs securely.

To enjoy surround sound you need to connect this player 
to an AV receiver using a digital output. This player has 
both coaxial and optical digital jacks; use whichever is 
convenient.
To record the audio from a CD-R disc etc. to a cassette 
or CDR recorder that’s connected to the AV receiver, and 
when your AV receiver has Zone2, you must connect the 
DV-SP502/DV-SP502E’s analog audio outputs to the AV 
receiver.
You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to 
your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs 
available on this player (the illustration shows a standard 
(composite) connection).

This player has both optical and coaxial-type digital 
audio outputs for connection to an AV receiver. Connect 
whichever is convenient. 
In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also 
connecting using the stereo analog connection.
Depending on the capabilities of your AV receiver, you 
might have to set up this player to output only digital 
audio in a compatible format. See Digital Audio Out set-
tings on page 46 and refer to the operating instructions 
that came with your AV receiver.

This enables you to listen to surround sound.
For an optical connection, use an optical cable (not sup-
plied) to connect the “OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO 
OUTPUT” jack to an optical input on your AV receiver.
For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable (similar to 
the supplied video cable) to connect the “COAXIAL 
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” jack to a coaxial input on 
your AV receiver.

The diagram shows standard video connections, but you 
can alternatively use the S Video or component video 
connections if they’re available.

You can use the SCART AV connector, or the S 
Video or component video jacks to connect to the AV 
receiver if you prefer.

Tip:
• You usually have to connect the same kind of video 

cable between your DV-SP502/DV-SP502E and AV 
receiver, and between your AV receiver and TV.
