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
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
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.
On
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.
