FILTER BUTTON

OR KEY (11)

Use the SACD/CD button or key to select one of the three disc for- mats that the SACD Standard plays: CD (conventional CD), SACD (two- channel SACD) and MULTI (multi-channel SACD). The currently selected format is preceded by a red LED in the front panel display (18). The default format for all SACD discs is MULTI.

The tracks on the selected disc format are the only tracks that can be played. To access tracks on alternate disc format, press the SACD/CD button or key again. If there are no tracks in a particular for- mat, that format does not appear in the front panel display.

If you are playing a two-channel track on a hybrid SACD, and want to access the tracks on the conventional CD layer:

1.Press the stop button on the front panel (5) or the stop key (5) on the remote control. The front panel display reads STOP.

2.Press the SACD/CD button or key (10) twice. The red LED next to the CD label (22) appears in the front panel display and the con- ventional CD layer begins playing in approximately 30 seconds.

If you are playing a multi-channel track on a hybrid SACD, and want to access the tracks on the conventional CD layer:

1.Press the stop button or the stop key. The front panel display reads STOP.

2.Press the SACD/CD button or key three times. The red LED next to the CD label appears in the front panel display and the convention- al CD layer begins playing in approximately 30 seconds.

The four SACD Standard format filters (11) make subtle changes to the high frequencies at ultrasonic levels, altering the sonic pre- sentation from your loudspeakers. Once a filter setting has been selected, it is held in memory even if the SACD Standard is turned off and then returned to operational status.

Filter 1, 2, 3, and 4 are available in any SACD format. Filters 1 and 2 are available only in the conventional CD format. All four filters have a different output gain, higher bandwidth, and a more gradual rolloff in the SACD format, compared to Filter 1 and 2 in the CD format.
