96 kHz 24 bit Performance

This receiver is capable of playing back advanced DVD discs which are recorded in 96 kHz/24 bit format (these are all stereo discs) and any source recorded in 96 kHz and up to 24 bit. The receiver will automatically read the format of the source and play accordingly (of course the SIGNAL SELECT will have to set to AUTO or DIGITAL to read the DVD soundtrack). When the receiver plays a 96 kHz disc “96 kHz“ and whatever mode you're using (for example “STEREO,“ “DIRECT“ or “DNR“) will appear in the display.

memo • When a 96 kHz/24 bit disc is played back the volume may be louder than that of a normal disc.

Some DVD players cannot play 96 kHz/24 bit discs. Check the manual of your DVD player to make sure.

During this playback the player enters the STEREO mode and you can use the controls available in STEREO mode (LOUDNESS, MIDNIGHT, TONE controls, etc., see p.49-50).

With 96 kHz/24 bit discs you are able to use MULTI CH IN playback and the TAPE 2 MONITOR.

In 96 kHz/24 bit mode you can't use the STANDARD, ADVANCED THEATER, THX, or DSP modes.
