Operation Manual

EN-15
Your Soundscape is capable of detecting and automatically
decoding multichannel audio formats, such as those found
on DVD and Blu-ray movies.
DIGITAL INPUTS (Optical and Coaxial)
When utilizing a digital connection, your Soundscape can
process the following formats:
• Dolby Digital
• DTS™ Digital Surround
• Digital PCM
• Digital Stereo
ANALOG INPUTS (Left/Right RCA)
Digitally encoded sound information cannot be transmitted
to an analog input. This connection method is adequate for
most devices that only offer two channels of audio output
(i.e. VCRs, CD players, older game consoles or portable media
player docks). Although most surround-sound-capable
devices such as DVD and Blu-ray players offer analog and
digital connections, the digital connection should always be
employed. If a source device is connected via an analog left/
right RCA connection, the 5.1-channel encoded audio
content will not correctly send to the Soundscape.
