CONNECTIONS

Note

The audio source on a disc in a Dolby Digital multi channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD or DAT deck.

By connecting this unit to a Dolby Digital decoder, you can enjoy high-quality Dolby Digital multi channel surround sound as heard in the movie theaters.

By connecting this unit to the DTS decoder, you can enjoy Multi-channel Surround System which reproduces the original sound as truthfully as possible. Multi-channel Surround System is developed by the DTS, Inc.

Playing back a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion and may also damage the speakers.

For audio CD and MP3 files, 2 channel PCM will be output regardless of the “Dolby Digital” setting.

If the connected device is not compatible with HDMI BITSTREAM, audio will be output as PCM even if you select “Stream” in “Dolby Digital” setting (Refer to page 85).

The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.

Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.

If the connected equipment is not compatible with HDMI BITSTREAM, DTS sound will not be output.
