input of an amplifier with a built-in DTS, MPEG
Multichannel or Dolby Digital decoder, or the stand-
alone unit of such a decoder.

is output from the DIGITAL OUT jack with the 48 kHz
sampling frequency.
• The unit does not provide the DTS decoding function.
• When playing a DVD VIDEO or Audio CD disc with
DTS, use a DTS decoder to get correct signals from
your speakers.
• DTS-encoded signal is output only from the unit’s
DIGITAL OUT jacks.
• If the unit is not connected to audio equipment with a
DTS decoder, DTS-encoded signal output from the
DIGITAL OUT jacks is distorted.
