Storage and Maintenance of Compact Discs
1. Keep compact discs tidy and avoid scratching compact discs or leaving fingerprints on compact discs.
2. To take a compact disc, please hold its edge, and please don’t touch its recording side.
3. Blue-ray discs record data based on polarity density, and recording layer is very close to surface of the
compact disc. Hence, compared with DVD, blue-ray discs are more sensitive to dust and fingerprints. If you
encounter any problems on playing and discover any stain on a disc, please tidy the disc up using clean cloth.
Please clean the disc from the center outwards along the ray. Please don’t clean them by drawing circles.
4. Please don’t use disc cleaning spray or solution like benzene, diluent or anti-static spray.
5. Please don’t stick labels or stickers to compact discs. Otherwise, the discs will warp or be too thick. As a
result, problems will occur during playing and the discs will be stuck.
6. Don’t have compact discs directly exposed to sunlight or put them near heat sources.
7. Please don’t use the following compact discs:
⚫The compact discs with glue left by stickers or labels might be stuck inside players;

Common Connections
Connecting to an A/V Receiver via HDMI
If your Receiver has HDMI functions and supports 4K HDR video transmission, you will only have to
connect the HDMI OUT (Main) port of the player to the power amplifier using an HDMI cable, and start
HDMI video transmission on the power amplifier (for more information, refer to the user manual for
receivers). Generally, the power amplifier is equipped with HDMI output, and can be connected to a display
device to transmit video signals.
Some power amplifiers have both HDMI 2.0 and HDMI 1.4 ports. To normally watch 4K contents, please
connect this product to 4K UHD TV input ports which are compatible with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2.
Notes
HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) can simultaneously transmit audios and videos from the player
to a display device. However, please beware that HDMI standards are still in the stage of constant
improvement, so they might still have problems in terms of compatibility. The power amplifier must be
compatible with HDMI audio inputs. Certain power amplifiers only provide HDMI for video switching. If
the power amplifier has no function for audio input, please refer to other related connection methods
described below.
For blue-ray discs, it is better to use power amplifiers with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio
decoding functions which are compatible with HDMI v1.4.
For 4K blue-ray discs, please use power amplifiers compatible with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 or higher
versions. It is recommended that superior high-speed (18Gbps) HDMI cable should be used for guaranteeing
watching of 4K UHD videos.
The formats supported by this product range from the latest object-oriented surround sound from source
codes to decoding formats, including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.

Please check specifications of your power amplifiers to make sure of satisfying these needs.

Connecting to a TV via HDMI
Connect HDMI OUT (Main) port of the player to a TV set using an HDMI cable. For this connection, pure
digital video and audio signals are simultaneously transmitted using a cable.
For normally playing 4K UHD contents, please do connect the HDMI OUT (Main) port of the player to a 4K
UHD TV set compatible with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP2.2.
Notes
For this connection, sound is output through the speaker of the TV set. For the best sound quality, you’d
better transmit audio from this product to an A/V power amplifier with speaker.
Please use a 4K TV set compatible with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2, to make sure that 4K blue-ray discs and
other 4K content can be normally watched with 4K resolution.
Please use an HDR (high dynamic range images) TV set for watching HDR content.
Please use a high-speed (18Gbps) HDMI cable for connection, to make sure that 4K 60Hz videos can be
watched.
Please don’t output HDMI OUT (Audio Only) to the TV set.

Common Connections
11
Connecting to a TV and an A/V Receiver via Dual HDMI
“Dual HDMI connection” of this product does not only guarantee audios with high bit rate, but also assures
the highest video quality and resolution. You can connect the HDMI OUT (Main) port to a TV set using an
HDMI cable, and connect the HDMI OUT (Audio Only) port to the power amplifier with another HDMI
cable.
If your display device has 3D or 4K image functions, but your power amplifier does not have these functions,
this configuration method will be recommended. Then, video signals (3D or 4K images) can be directly sent
to the TV set, and audio signals will be sent to the power amplifier.
Notes
Please refer to instructions on HDMI connection.
If your receiver doesn’t support HDMI audio input, please try other connections.

Connecting to a Stereo System via RCA
If your sound system only has a stereo input port or you want to connect your surround sound system to an
independent stereo system in addition to HDMI, optical fiber or coaxial output port, you can connect that
system to the independent STEREO AUDIO OUT port of this player.
This product has two groups of stereo audio output ports: RCA terminal and XLR balanced terminal.
You’d better give priority to choose XLR terminal, because it outperforms the RCA terminal in noise
suppression and signal integrity.
Notes
Independent stereo output ports will automatically down mix multi-track audio source signals into stereo
signals, but independent stereo output will not be affected by down mix or menu setting>other speaker
setting options of sound processing.

Connecting to a Stereo System Using an XLR Balanced Audio Cable
You can also connect the XLR BALANCED STEREO AUDIO OUT to the stereo system. Please use XLR3
balanced audio cable, and the XLR port of this player is a male terminal.
Notes
The XLR BALANCED STEREO AUDIO OUT is commonly used for specialized electronic audio devices,
including high-quality microphones and cables connected between devices.
This product uses XLR port (as shown in the figure below) and transmits a pair of differential signals
(positive/negative signals). Back-end circuits can cancel common-mode noises and increase integrity of
original signals by comparing voltage differences between this pair of signals.

Connecting to an Amplifier through S/PDIF (Optical/Coaxial)
Please connect the optical or coaxial audio output to corresponding output terminal of the A/V power
amplifier using a 75 Ω coaxial digital audio cable or S/PDIF optical/digital audio cable with RCA plug.
Notes
Owing to bandwidth limits, high resolution audios in formats such as Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD,
DTS-HD High Resolution and DTS-HD Master Audio cannot be output in a coaxial manner or through
optical fiber cable. The aforementioned sound tracks will be replaced by versions with lower resolution.
Please use HDMI for connection of your power amplifier can process HDMI audio inputs, in order that high
resolution audios can be in the best format. Otherwise, use multi-track analog output.
Due to copyright limitations, SACD audios cannot be transmitted through coaxial or optical/digital audio
output. To appreciate SACD, please choose HDMI or analog audio connection.
Because of copyright and bandwidth limitations, high resolution audios of DVD-Audio discs cannot be
transmitted through co-axial or optical and digital audio outputs. To appreciate high resolution DVD-Audio
discs, please choose HDMI or analog audio connections.
