Getting started
To connect to audio equipment with a digital input
You can enhance the sound quality by connecting the unit�s DIGITAL OUT to the digital input of an amplifier, DAT or MD by using an optional digital cable (the XV-521BK/523GD/525BK provides both the optical and coaxial jacks while the XV-421BK only provides the coaxial jack). The digital audio signal from a disc is directly transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by using an optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound. When you make the digital connection, also make the analog connection, because, depending on the disc type, no audio may be reproduced from the DIGITAL OUT. For XV-521BK/523GD/525BK When using the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) jack, remove the protection cap. Do not lose the removed cap. When the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) jack is not used, fix the protection cap into the jack.

See �DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT� on page 36. � With the digital connection, the unit�s settings for COMPRESSION and DOWN MIX in the AUDIO page of the preference display are invalid. Settings for these items must be made from the decoder.
