Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a CD

• When playing DTS-encoded CDs,

excessive noise will be heard from the
analog stereo jacks. To avoid possible
damage to the audio system, the consumer
should take proper precautions when the
analog stereo jacks of the player are
connected to an amplification system. To
enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, an
external 5.1-channel decoder system must
be connected to the digital jack of the
player.

• Set the sound to “STEREO” using the

AUDIO button when you play DTS sound
tracks on a CD (page 49).

• Do not play DTS sound tracks without first

connecting the player to an audio
component having a built-in DTS decoder.
The player outputs the DTS signal via the
DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL or OPTICAL)
jack even if “DTS” in “AUDIO SETUP” is
set to “OFF” in the Setup Display (page 69),
and may affect your ears or cause your
speakers to be damaged.
