*If you are using a Linn AKURATE CD player as a multi-channel source, see User Options, Downmix on page 17 of the AKURATE CD’s owner’s manual. If you are using a Linn UNIDISK 1.1 or 2.1 player, see Downmix on page 11 of the UNIDISK player’s owner’s manual.

**You do not need a full surround sound loudspeaker system to hear these formats. If you have more than front loudspeakers (and a subwoofer) in your system, then when you select either of these formats the signal will be converted into a 5.0 signal then downmixed to match the number of loudspeakers in your system.
