Multi-Channel Digital Audio to Receiver or Processor through HDMI

If the player is connected to an A/V receiver or processor with HDMI inputs for high resolution multi-channel digital audio, you are in luck! You are now equipped to send all current audio formats to your receiver in pure digital form. This connection method will typically be as described in “Method 4” on page 16 of this guide.

To get the best possible audio via HDMI, you may need to set the following options on the player’s audio format Setup Menu, depending on the capabilities of your HDMI-capable receiver:

HDMI Audio:	Bitstream
SACD Output:	PCM (or DSD if the receiver
	supports DSD over HDMI)
Coaxial OpticalOutput:	(any – not in use)
LPCM Rate Limit:	(any – not in use)

•If your receiver supports HDMI v1.1/1.2 Multi-Channel PCM audio, but not high resolution lossless audio formats such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, please set these audio format options:
