Note

If you listen to multichannel DVD-Audio through one of the digital outputs, it will be downmixed to stereo. Also, high sampling rate DVD-Audio (192 kHz or 176.4 kHz) will be downsampled to 96 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz, depending on the disc. Multi channel and high sampling rate DVD-Audio are only available through the analog outputs.

All DVD-Audio and all Super Audio CD audio are output only through the analog outputs. (see page 38)
