If you’ve selected DTS > PCM in DTS Out on page 34 or 2 Channel in Audio Output Mode on page 40, you can choose the way the signal is downmixed to PCM audio. Stereo will downmix the DTS signal to 2-channel stereo, whereas Lt/Rt will downmix to a 2-channel signal compatible with Dolby surround matrix decoders. (This allows you to hear surround sound if your AV receiver or amplifier has Dolby Pro Logic capability.)

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.

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.

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 above 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.
