DENON LINK
2 DENON LINK Second Edition:
• With the DENON LINK, Second Edition (2nd), the audio signals are transferred from the DVD player to the
AV amplifier in digital form, with the same quality as the signals recorded on the disc.
Digital transfer of the high quality multi-channel signals of DVD audio is possible for all discs. (A Second
Edition compatible DVD player and AV amplifier are required for this.)
2 Compatibility with previous models:
• With Second Edition, the format of the signals handled differs from that of the previous version of
DENON LINK.
Thus, digital audio signals output from a DENON LINK S.E. compatible DVD player can only be played
on a DENON LINK S.E. compatible AV amplifier (Playback with DENON LINK connections is not
possible when using a DENON LINK S.E. compatible DVD player in combination with an AV amplifier
that is not S.E. compatible.).
• If the DENON LINK connector on your AV amplifier is not S.E. compatible, please consult your authorized
DENON dealer.
•“S.E.” is indicated on the rear panel’s DENON LINK connector on DENON LINK S.E. compatible products.
2 DENON LINK S.E. settings:
• At “AUDIO SETUP” under “Default Settings”, set “DENON LINK” to “2nd”. (See pages 19 to 21.)
• If you connect the DENON LINK, set to “2nd”.
NOTES:
• When DENON LINK is set, the down-mixed audio signals are output from the only left and right terminals.
To use the analog terminals, cancel the DENON LINK setting (set to “OFF”).
•“AUDIO CHANNEL”, “DIGITAL OUTPUT”, “LPCM (44.1kHz/48kHz)”, “IEEE1394”, “SOURCE DIRECT”
and “BASS ENHANCER” cannot be set at “AUDIO SETUP” under “Default Settings” when using the
DENON LINK connector.
The “PURE DIRECT” “DIGITAL OFF” and “ALL OFF” settings cannot be made either. (See pages 26,
27.)
• The DVD-A11’s speaker settings are invalidated when the DENON LINK connector is connected.
• When the DENON LINK 2nd connection, Super Audio CD’s signals are not output from the DENON LINK
connector. Please use the analog audio output terminals.
(9) IEEE 1394 connections
The simple connection of one IEEE 1394 cable permits high quality digital transfer of the following between
devices having IEEE 1394 connectors: the audio of DVD video, DVD audio that up until now could only be
connected by 5-conductor audio cable in an analog connection, or Super Audio CD and other multi-channel
audio. (unless DENON LINK connections)
(IEEE 1394 is an international standard established by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
of the U.S.)
