Linear PCM Out, Speaker Conﬁguration | Onkyo DV-SP506 specification

Conﬁguring the DV-SP506—Continued

Linear PCM Out

With this setting you can conﬁgure the DV-SP506 to out- put digital audio with higher sampling rates (e.g., 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz) as it is or to down sample it to 48 kHz or below.

If the AV component you connect to the DV-SP506’s digital audio outputs supports 96 kHz digital audio, select Down Sample Off. Otherwise, select Down Sam- ple On.

Down Sample Off (default): Sources are output as

they are.

Down Sample On: 192 kHz and 96 kHz sources are down sampled to 48 kHz, and 176.4 kHz and

88.2 kHz sources are down sampled to 44.1 kHz.

Notes:

•With some discs, even if you select Down Sample Off, the digital audio will be down sampled, and in some cases may not be output by the DV-SP506’s digital audio outputs.

•Even if Down Sample Off is selected, sources at 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz are not output by the OPTICAL and COAXIAL outputs. In addition, sources at lower sam- pling rates that use copy protection may not be output.

•When the SACD Audio Setup setting is set to DSD, nothing is output by the OPTICAL and COAXIAL outputs during SACD disc playback.

Speaker Conﬁguration

With these settings, you can specify which speakers are connected and their sizes. These settings only apply to the DV-SP506’s analog multichannel output. If you con- nect to only the D.MIX/FRONT L/R jacks, set the Sub- woofer, Center Speaker, and Surround Speaker settings to Off.

Notes:

•The Speaker Conﬁguration settings have no effect on 192 kHz and 176.4 kHz DVD-Audio.

•To use the Speaker Conﬁguration settings for SACD playback, in the SACD Audio Setup, select PCM (page 53).

■Subwoofer

On (default): Select if a subwoofer is connected.

Off: Select if no subwoofer is connected.

■Front Speaker

Large (default): Select if the front speakers are large.

Small: Select if the front speakers are small.

Note:

•If the Subwoofer setting is set to Off, this setting is ﬁxed at Large and cannot be changed.

■Center Speaker

Large (default): Select if the center speaker is large.

Small: Select if the center speaker is small.

Off: Select if no center speaker is connected.

Notes:

•If the Front Speaker setting is set to Small, the Large option cannot be selected.

•The Center Speaker and Surround Speaker settings can only be set to the same size.

■Surround Speaker

Large (default): Select if the surround speakers are large.

Small: Select if the surround speakers are small.

Off: Select if no surround speakers are connected.

Notes:

•If the Front Speaker setting is set to Small, the Large option cannot be selected.

•The Center Speaker and Surround Speaker settings can only be set to the same size.

Center Delay and Surr. Delay

With these settings, you can adjust the multichannel out- put signals relative to the listening position.

For 5.1-channel surround playback, ideally your speak- ers should all be the same distance away from the listen- ing position, but this isn’t always practical. By setting a delay time for the center and surround speakers, you can adjust their virtual positions without having to physically move them, creating the ideal listening environment. The diagram below shows the ideal locations for the center and surround speakers.

■Center Delay

Center Delay (A) = Df – Dc

No Delay (default): When Df equals Dc.

1msec: When (A) is approx. 1 ft. (0.3 m)

2msec: When (A) is approx. 2 ft. (0.6 m)

3msec: When (A) is approx. 3 ft. (0.9 m)

4msec: When (A) is approx. 4 ft. (1.2 m)

5msec: When (A) is approx. 5 ft. (1.5 m)
