pWhen making digital hookups
You can prevent deterioration of the signal during
transmission, since the music signal output through
the digital output connectors retains digital form.
You can connect a digital component such as a
digital amplifier, D/A converter, DAT, or MD. When
you connect a DAT or MD, you can make digital
recordings from CDs.
Be sure to set the DIGITAL OUT ON/OFF switch to
ON when you make this connection.
Note that you cannot use the fade in/out function
(page 18) when making this connection.
• If you have a digital component with an optical digital
input connector
Connect the component via the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL)
connector using the optical cable (not supplied). Take off
the cap and plug in the optical cable.
