96kHz 24bit Performance

This receiver is capable of playing back advanced DVD discs which are recorded in 96kHz/24 bit format (these are all stereo discs). The receiver will automatically read the format of the disc and play accordingly (of course the SIGNAL SELECT will have to set to AUTO or DIGITAL to read the DVD soundtrack). When the receiver plays a 96 kHz/24 bit disc "96 kHz" appears in the display. If you try to use one of the functions or modes mentioned below "96kHz" will light on the display, as shown below, indicating the procedure is not possible.
