Sound
– Digital output
¶ Digital output selection enables you to specify
the type of digital output suitable for your
receiver.
¶ Select OFF to deactivate the DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT.
¶ Select PCM only if your receiver is not capable
of decoding multichannel audio.
¶ Select ALL (default setting), if you had connected
your DIGITAL AUDIO OUT to a multichanel
decoder receiver.
Note:
– Digital output is not available for SACD and
MP3 discs.
– Analogue output
Select Stereo, Dolby Surround-compatible, 3D
Sound or Multi-channel.
Multi-channel: Select this setting when using a
multi-channel audio/(video) receiver with six
inputs. In this mode, the player will perform DTS
decoding or Dolby Digital 5.1-channel decoding
when applicable, and Dolby Pro Logic decoding
on DVD-Video and Video-CD discs with 2-
channel sound tracks. No Dolby Pro Logic
decoding is done with (Super) Audio CD discs.
Stereo: In this setting, the 5.1 audio channels are
down-mixed to a stereo signal. Select this setting
when connecting to a TV, stereo amplifier/
receiver, etc.
Notes:
– Multichannel output and downmixed
stereo output are not available
simultaneously.
– When multichannel is selected as
analogue output, the AUDIO OUT (Left/
Right) will deliver the Centre channel data
and not the downmixed Left/Right.
Dolby Surround-compatible: Select this setting
when using an equipment with a Dolby
Surround Pro Logic decoder. In this setting, the
5.1 audio channels (Dolby Digital, MPEG-2, DTS)
are downmixed to a Dolby Surround-compatible
2-channel output.
3D-Sound: In a setup without rear speakers
(analogue stereo output), 3D Sound remixes the
six channels of digital surround into a two-
speaker output while retaining all of the original
audio information. The result is the listening
sensation of being surrounded by multiple
speakers.
During DVD or Video-CD playback, these values
can be selected directly with the ‘SOUND
MODE’ key.
– Night Mode
When set to ON, the dynamics of your sound
output are optimised. High volume outputs are
softened, enabling you to watch your favourite
action movie without disturbing others.
– Karaoke vocal
Put this setting to ON only when a multi-channel
karaoke DVD is being played. The karaoke
channels on the disc will then be mixed into a
normal stereo sound.
– SACD Bass Management Bypass
Allows you (with suitable speaker system) to
bypass the bass management system for multi-
channel SACD playback.
This helps to preserve maximum sound quality
of your SACD.
Warning!
– When SACD Bass Management Bypass
is ON, speaker setting will not be applied
during multi-channel SACD playback.
