Audio Output Settings
(Audio Out)
The “Audio Out” setup allows you to switch
the method of outputting audio signals when
you connect a component such as an
amplifier (receiver) with a digital input jack.
If you connect a component that does not
accept the selected audio signal, a loud noise
(or no sound) will come from the speakers,
and may affect your ears or cause speaker
damage.
