If you connected this player to your amplifier using the 5.1 channel analog outputs (front, surround, center and subwoofer outs), set this to 5.1 Channel; if you connected only the stereo outs, set to 2 Channel.

•If you set to 2 Channel, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio is mixed down to two channels so you still hear all the audio recorded on the disc. With DTS encoded audio, you can choose how the signal is downmixed to PCM audio. See DTS Downmix on page 43 to change the downmix setting.

•Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down- mixing of audio. These discs always output multi-channel audio regardless of the setting made here.

Note

•Even if you set Audio Output Mode to

5.1 Channel, you’ll only get sound from all speakers when playing a 5.1 channel multi-channel disc.

•When set to 5.1 Channel, only the front left/ right channels are output from the AUDIO OUT (2ch) jacks. Change to 2 Channel if you want to listen to downmixed stereo audio (for example, because you are listening through the TV’s built-in speakers).

•When set to 5.1 Channel there is no digital output when playing DVD-Audio.
