To connect to audio equipment with a digital input
You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit's DIGITAL OUT jacks to the digital input of an amplifier, MD, etc. by using an optical or a coaxial digital cable (optional). 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, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on discs, no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.
