For your reference

In rare cases, the unit may have trouble recognizing the digital signals on discs.

¡With the PCM signals on CDs, this may cause the beginning of a track to be cut off. Engage the PCM FIX mode if this occurs.

¡With DTS, the signals may not be recognized at all. Engage the DTS FIX mode if this occurs.

While the input source is selected and digital input is engaged:

Press and hold [ DIGITAL INPUT ].

The current mode is displayed. Press again to change the mode. Each time you press the button:

AUTO / PCM FIX / DTS FIX

↑

When a FIX mode is on, the unit cannot process other signals. This may cause noise to be output. Select “AUTO” if this occurs.

The selected mode is stored for each input source even if the unit is

10 turned off.

Enjoy an enhanced sound experience with greater presence and spread by using these SFC (sound field control) modes with PCM or analog stereo sources.

The SFC modes cannot be used if the input signal

is Dolby Digital or DTS.SFC Choose from the following modes.

¡Dolby Digital

¡DTS, including DTS-ES

¡PCM, including PCM with sampling frequencies of 96 or 88.2 kHz
