Notes on connecting cables• Use a High Speed HDMI cable. If you use a
Standard HDMI cable, 1080p or Deep
Colour (Deep Color) images may not be
displayed properly.
• Sony recommends that you use an HDMI
authorized cable or Sony HDMI cable.
• We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI
conversion cable. When you connect an
HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D
component, the sound and/or the image may
not be output. Connect other audio cords or
digital connecting cords, then set
“A. ASSIGN” in AUDIO menu (page 63)
when the sound is not output correctly.
Notes on HDMI connections• An audio signal input to the HDMI IN jack
is output from the SPEAKERS jacks and
HDMI TV 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 TV OUT
jack. The video input signals cannot be
output from the VIDEO OUT jacks or
MONITOR OUT jacks.
• When you want to listen to the sound from
the TV speaker, set “AUDIO.OUT” to
“TV+AMP” in the HDMI menu (page 64). If
you cannot play back multi channel
software, set to “AMP”. However, the sound
will not output from the TV speaker.
• Be sure to turn on the receiver when video
and audio signals of a playback component
are being output to a TV through this
receiver. If you set “PASS.TRHU” to
“OFF”, video and audio signal will not be
transmitted when the power is set to off.
• DSD signals of Super Audio CD are not
input and output.
• The multi/stereo area audio signals of a
Super Audio CD are not output.
• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit
length, etc.) transmitted from an 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, the number of channels
or audio format 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 TV OUT jack may be
distorted or may not be output.
In this case, check the specification of the
connected component.
• The image resolution of player may need
certain settings be made before you can
enjoy multi channel Linear PCM. Refer to
the operating instructions of the player.
• Not every HDMI component supports all
functions that are defined by the specified
HDMI version. For example, components
that support HDMI, version 1.4, may not
support Audio Return Channel (ARC).
• Refer to the operating instructions of each
connected component for details.
