Note

1• When digital input (optical or coaxial) is selected, this receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32 kHz to 96 kHz) and DTS (including DTS 96 kHz / 24 bit) digital signal formats. The compatible signals via the HDMI terminals are: Dolby Digital, DTS, SACD (DSD 2 ch), PCM (32 kHz to 192 kHz sampling frequencies), Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-EXPRESS, DTS- HD Master Audio and DVD Audio (including 192 kHz).

•You may get digital noise when a LD or CD player compatible with DTS is playing an analog signal. To prevent noise, make the proper digital connections (page 22) and set the signal input to C1/O1/O2 (DIGITAL).

•Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.
