*1 This unit checks the specification of the connected component (such sample rate/multi- channel limitations and compatibility with protected audio contents) and outputs the signal accordingly. Note that ‘DVD-Audio compatible’ indicates compatibility with protected audio contents. ‘SACD compatible’ indicates compatibility with DSD signals.

*2 If HDMI Out setting (page 39) is set to LPCM (2CH), DVD-Audio multichannel sources will be downmixed to stereo. (In cases where the source is downmix-prohibited, only the front left/right channels are output.) For SACD sources, the 2 channel (stereo) SACD audio area is selected.

If the video output resolution is 480i, 576i, 480p or 576p, audio output may be limited to 2 channel (depending to the connected component).

*3 In cases where the source is downmix-prohibited, only the front left/right channels are output.

*4 If CPPM shows in the front panel display, it means it is not possible to output CPPM copycon- trolled DVD-Audio sources from the HDMI connection. Discs with no CPPM protection are limited to 2 channel output.
