Digital Optical and Coaxial Cable Connections
Optical Cable Input/Output Terminals
• Connect a receiver or amplifier with digital audio capability via
the optical Input/Output cables. A single cable transmits stereo
signals (L/R channels) as digital data.
• If analog audio connections are also being made, try using the
digital connectors on the receiver/amplifier that are labeled the
same way as the analog terminals.
• Make sure the optical cable (not supplied) can be connected to
the amplifier, etc. before purchasing it.
• Do not bend the optical cable at a sharp angle.
• The filament in the cable shines red when activated. This beam
sends the digital signal. It is not harmful to the eyes, but please
keep the protective cap on the terminal when not in use.
Notes
• Connect an external digital recording device to the digital out-
put terminal on an amplifier or receiver, and then connect the
amplifier or receiver to this unit.
• The sound from an external device cannot be digitally output
from this unit. To listen to the sound from the external device,
connect an amplifier or receiver to the LINE OUT (PLAY) ter-
minal on this unit.

How to use optical terminals for connections
1
Remove the protective cap.
• When the terminal is not going to be used, fit this protective cap
back in position.
2
Check that the end of the optical digital cable is
not dirty, and insert it securely.
Coaxial Cable Terminals
• Coaxial Input/Output terminals are provided on this unit for
enhanced connectivity. Simply connect the corresponding
