*1 Only 48 kHz/16 bit sources are output.

*2 Only 44.1 kHz/16 bit sources are output.

*3 44.1 kHz/16-bit PCM signals are output during CD layer playback.

•Down-mixed to 2 channels for multi-channel PCM sources. (Only the front left and right channels are output for sources for which down-mixing is prohibited.)

•When playing copyright-protected linear PCM or packed PCM DVDs, in consideration of copyrights, no digital signals are output for sources exceeding 48 kHz/16 bits. When playing such sources, either set “LPCM (44.1 kHz/48 kHz)” under “AUDIO SETUP” at “SETUP” to “ON” (See pages 46, 50.) or make analog connections. (See page 16.)

•When making digital connections to an AV amplifier that is not compatible with 96 kHz/88.2 kHz signals, set “LPCM (44.1 kHz/48 kHz)” under “AUDIO SETUP” at “SETUP” to “ON”. (See pages 46, 50.)

•With Super audio CDs, digital audio signals cannot be output from the digital out terminals. Use analog or IEEE1394 connections. (See pages 16, 19, 20.)

•When “DIGITAL OUTPUT : OFF” is selected at the “PURE DIRECT MODE”, digital signals are not output from the digital audio output at this time.

•Bitstream signals are signals that are compressed and converted into digital format. They are decoded into multi-channel audio signals (5.1-channel, etc.) by the decoder.

•Linear PCM audio is the signal recording format used for music CDs.

While the signals are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bit for music CDs, for DVDs they are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bit to 192 kHz/24 bit, providing higher sound quality than music CDs.

•Packed PCM signals are high sound quality compressed PCM signals that are decompressed with virtually no loss of data.
