Notes on HDMI connections

Use a HDMI cable with the HDMI logo (made by Sony).

An audio signal input to the HDMI IN jack is output from the SPEAKERS jacks and HDMI OUT jack. It is not output from any other audio jacks.

Video signals input to the HDMI IN jack can only be output from the HDMI OUT jack.

When you want to listen to the sound from the TV speaker, set “AUDIO” to “TV+AMP” in the VIDEO menu (page 39). If you cannot play back multi channel software, set to “AMP”. However, the sound will not output from the TV speaker.

The multi/stereo area audio signals of a Super Audio CD are not output.

Be sure to turn on the receiver when the video and audio of a playback component are being output to a TV via the receiver. If the power supply of the receiver is not turned on, neither video nor audio is transmitted.

Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit length, etc.) transmitted from a HDMI jack may be suppressed by the connected component. Check the setup of the connected component if the image is poor or the sound does not come out of a component connected via the HDMI cable.

Sound may be interrupted when the sampling frequency or the number of channels of audio output signals from the playback component is switched.

When the connected component is not compatible with copyright protection technology (HDCP), the image and/or the sound from the HDMI OUT jack may be distorted or may not be output.

In this case, check the specification of the connected component.

Set the resolution of the image of the playback component to 720p or 1080i when you output 96 kHz multi channel sound over a HDMI connection.

We do not recommend using a HDMI-DVI conversion cable. When you connect a HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D component, the sound and/or the image may not be output.

For details on HDMI setup of the connected component, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the connected component.
