I have the Phillips hooked up 3 ways.
1. Playing DVDs through digital coax. Sourced as DVD
2. SACDs through 5 channel interconnects. Sourced as DVD, EXT. in.(only so I can see the SACD menu and song title on the television screen.)
3. Cds through standard RCA interconnects. Sourced as VDP player. ( hooked up for 2 channel SACDs, so I get the sub in the mix, rather than just FR and FL

The CD player in hooked up through RCA standard interconnects.

The biggest difference between the players connections is that the cd player has some expensive a$$ Monster RCA interconnects and the DVD player has a little less expensive AR RCA interconnects. And I'm not going there.


LIFE IS SHORT.
DON'T BE A DICK.
