*4 Selectable under “Audio (HDMI)” in “Audio Setup” (page 47). Resulting output may differ depending on the connected HDMI device. *5 When the sampling frequency is 192 kHz, the player downmixes to 2ch signals even if the disc or source is 5.1ch.

*6 Outputs 7.1ch LPCM signals decoded from Dolby Digital Plus audio stream. *7 Outputs 7.1ch LPCM signals decoded from Dolby TrueHD audio stream.

The player outputs up to 7.1ch LPCM when the source sampling frequency is 48 kHz; up to 5.1ch at 96 kHz; up to 2ch at 192 kHz.
