- You can connect the DVD player to the receiver via coaxial, optical or analog cables, but to enjoy DTS/
Dolby Digital sound, coaxial or optical cable connection is necessary. We recommend the following connections when SDET is ON - CD to Coaxial, SAT to Optical 1 and DVD to Optical 2. Otherwise, turn SDET to
OFF to match with your own favourable connections (see p.3).
- Tip: For RT2500 that comes with speakers, make sure the colors of suppied speaker wires and terminals
are matched.
