SACD discs can be divided up into several different areas — stereo audio (2ch Area), multi-channel audio (Multi-ch Area) and, for hybrid SACDs, standard CD audio (CD Area). Select which you want to listen to.

•For multi-channel audio from the i.LINK and 5.1 channel analog outputs, SACD playback must be set to Multi-ch Area.

•If you select an area that isn’t on the disc loaded, a different area of the disc will play. For example, if you choose standard CD audio but the disc loaded is not a hybrid SACD, the stereo SACD audio will play.

After selecting HDMI from the Initial Settings menu, the HDMI settings menu appears. For example, if you connected a Pioneer display, the following menu should be displayed:

Resolution	720x480 P
Aspect Ratio	16:9 (Wide)
Colour	Component (12bit)
Video Memory	Direct
Audio	Linear PCM

With DVI-compatible devices (with HDCP), the same screen is shown, but with the audio setting grayed-out (there is no audio with DVI):

Resolution	720x480 P
Aspect Ratio	16:9 (Wide)
Colour	Component (12bit)
Video Memory	Direct
Audio	Linear PCM

•Use the joystick (up/down) to select a setting.

•Use the joystick (left/right) to adjust the current setting.

•After you’ve finished, press ENTER to confirm any settings you’ve made and return to the Initial Settings menu.
