3 CONNECTING YOUR DCX SET-TOP
15
Connecting an A/V Receiver — Audio
There are several options available for audio connections to your A/V
receiver:
• Digital audio (OPTICAL S/PDIF)
• Digital audio (COAXIAL S/PDIF)
• Stereo audio (
AUDIO L/R)
If your A/V receiver supports it, the optical (
S/PDIF) or coaxial (S/PDIF)
digital audio outputs may be used in place of the stereo audio outputs
(
AUDIO L/R). In most cases these outputs offer a higher level of audio
quality, including support for Dolby Digital Plus audio.
•
Digital audio optical (S/PDIF) — Connect the optical cable to
the digital audio optical connector on the DCX set-top and the
optical connector on the A/V receiver.
• Digital audio coaxial (S/PDIF) — Connect the digital audio
cable to the digital audio coaxial connector on the DCX set-top
and the
DIGITAL INPUT COAX connector on the A/V receiver.
• Stereo audio — Connect the stereo audio cable to the AUDIO
L/R
connectors on the DCX set-top and the AUDIO L/R
connectors on the A/V receiver.
For information on configuring your DCX set-top settings, see
Configuring the Audio, Video, and Closed Caption Settings.
