Note

1If you’re in the song category, you can also press ENTER to start playback.

2• An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection

(HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a separate adaptor (DVI HDMI) to do so. A DVI connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.

This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) Version 1.2. Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers. Also, when using a component with HDMI version 1.0, it is not possible to output copy-controlled DVD-Audio CPPM sources from the HDMI connection.

For SACD playback, your connected HDMI component must be able to output SACD from the HDMI output.

3 To see this receiver’s on-screen display, monitors (or projectors) must be compatible with 480i/576i resolution digital video.
