󳂮When selecting the AUDIO OUT
You can select the formats of audio signals to be output from the HDMI OUTPUT connector as well as the 5.1CH/2CH AUDIO
OUTPUTs depending on the audio format recorded in the disc. (For details, refer to Audio output from the units HDMI
OUTPUT and 5.1CH/2CH AUDIO OUTPUTs on page 10.)
Regardless of AUDIO OUT setting, the digital audio signals can be output from the DIGITAL OUTPUTs as they were recorded
in a digital audio format. However, there are some exceptions depending on the digital audio format recorded in disc. (For
details, refer to Connecting DIGITAL OUTPUTs and Audio output from the units DIGITAL OUTPUTs on page 7.)
When the HDMI OUTPUT connector is connected to an HDMI-compatible TV, the TV reports to this unit what audio formats it
supports. Therefore, if the AUDIO OUT is set to HDMI AUTO, this unit outputs either the audio signals as they were recorded
in a digital audio format or the linear PCM signals of the highest sampling frequency acceptable for your TV.
Some TVs may not report their digital audio format information. In this case, if the AUDIO OUT is set to HDMI AUTO, the 2
channel PCM signals will be automatically output.
If your TV doesnt support Dolby Digital, DTS, etc., you should set the AUDIO OUT to MULTI CH or STEREO depending on
the audio format that it can support. (For details on the audio format, refer to the operating instruction of your TV.)
Note:
To output the signals from the HDMI OUTPUT connector, you should set the HDMI OUTPUT to ON.
Depending on the AUDIO OUT setting, the analog audio signals can be output from the 5.1CH/2CH AUDIO OUTPUTs.
Depending on how to connect the analog AUDIO OUTPUT jacks to your amplifier/receiver or TV, you should set the AUDIO
OUT correctly as follows:
* When outputting the multichannel audio signals from the 5.1CH AUDIO OUTPUTs as they were recorded, set the AUDIO OUT to HDMI AUTO
or MULTI CH.
* When enjoying conventional 2 channel stereo sound by connecting the units 2CH AUDIO OUTPUTs (or the A/V SCART OUTPUT connector)
to a stereo amplifier/receiver/TV, set it to STEREO.
Notes:
When the AUDIO OUT is set to HDMI AUTO or MULTI CH, only the front left and right signals of the multichannel audio
signals will be output from the 2CH AUDIO OUTPUTs (and the A/V SCART OUTPUT connector).
When the AUDIO OUT is set to STEREO, 2 channel signals will be output from only the FL and FR jacks of 5.1CH AUDIO
OUTPUTs, too.
When playing a SACD recorded in DSD, no audio signals can be output from the HDMI OUTPUT connector regardless of
AUDIO OUT setting. To enjoy a SACD recorded in DSD, make the analog connection. (For details, refer to Connecting 5.1CH
AUDIO OUPUTs or Connecting 2CH AUDIO OUTPUTs on page 7.)
