Digital Out/Digital2 Hdmi, Linear PCM Out

Conﬁguring the DPS-10.5—Continued

Digital Out/Digital2 (HDMI)

With these settings you can determine how the DPS-10.5 outputs digital audio from its HDMI OUT and DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs. The options you choose will depend on the type of component that you connect to the DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs.

■Dolby Digital Out

With this setting you can conﬁgure the DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs to output Dolby Digital audio as it is or to downmix it into 2-channel PCM.

Dolby Digital (default)

Choose this option if you’re connecting a component with a built-in Dolby Digital decoder.

Dolby Digital > PCM

Choose this option if you’re connecting a stereo hi-ﬁ amp with a digital input, an AV receiver with a built- in Dolby Pro Logic decoder, or an external D/A converter.

■DTS Out

With this setting you can conﬁgure the DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs to output DTS audio as it is or to down- mix it into 2-channel PCM.

DTS (default)

Choose this option if you’re connecting a component with a built-in DTS decoder.

DTS > PCM

Choose this option if you’re connecting a stereo hi-ﬁ amp with a digital input or an external D/A converter.

Notes:

•When playing the DTS audio of a DTS CD, set the CD Audio Setup setting to DTS (see page 76).

■MPEG Out

With this setting you can conﬁgure the DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs to output MPEG audio as it is or to down- mix it into 2-channel PCM.

MPEG

Choose this option if you’re connecting a component with a built-in MPEG decoder.

MPEG > PCM (default)

Choose this option if you’re connecting a stereo hi-ﬁ amp with a digital input or an external D/A con- verter.

■Digital Out

With this setting you can turn the DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs on or off. Depending on how you connect the DPS-10.5 to your other components, this can be useful in certain situations.

On (default)

DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs are on.

Off

DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs are off.

Notes:

• This setting has no effect on the analog audio outputs.

Linear PCM Out

DVD-V DVD-A DVD-VR VCD CD MP3

With this setting you can conﬁgure the DPS-10.5 to out- put digital audio with a high sampling rate (e.g., 96 kHz) as it is or to downsample it to 48 kHz. This setting applies to the DIGITAL 1 and DIGITAL 2 AUDIO OUTs.

Down Sample On

Choose this option if the component connected to the DIGITAL 1 or 2 AUDIO OUTs doesn’t support high sampling rates.

Down Sample Off (default)

Choose this option if the connected component does support high sampling rates.

Notes:

•Some copy-protected DVD-Video discs may use

96 kHz digital audio only for A/D conversion to the analog audio outputs.

•With some discs, even if you select Down Sample Off, digital audio will be downsampled to 48 kHz regard- less, and in some cases, digital audio may not be out- put by the DPS-10.5’s digital audio outputs.

i.LINK Output Setting

SACD

This setting is used to conﬁgure the i.LINK sockets for use with SACD. It also affects DVD-Audio output.

Off (default)

SACD audio is output by the analog audio outputs but not the i.LINK sockets. Select this option if you’re not using the i.LINK sockets.

SACD audio is output by the i.LINK sockets but not the analog audio outputs. Select this option if you’re using the i.LINK sockets.

Notes:

•When the DPS-10.5 is plugged in and set to Standby, it automatically checks if it’s connected to any other i.LINK components. If it is, the default setting for the i.LINK Output Setting becomes On. If not, the default becomes Off.

•When set to On, the Analog Audio Out Speaker Set- ting and Speaker Distance settings have no effect and are unavailable, and multichannel SACD and DVD-Audio is output as it is.

•When an i.LINK component is connected and an SACD is loaded, if this setting is set to Off, the IEEE 1394 indicator will ﬂash, in which case you should set this setting to On.
