Notes

•It is necessary to use a DTS decoder to play back a source encoded with DTS, so the player which plays back the source must be connected to a digital audio input terminal of this unit in the way described in this manual. If this connection is not made or only a D-to-A converter is being used without using a DTS decoder, only a loud hissing noise will be heard when you play back the source.

•The “t” indicator will flash when the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or skip operation is performed while playing back a source encoded with DTS. If this status continues for 30 or more seconds, the unit will automatically switch from DTS-decoding mode to PCM digital signal input mode and the “ t” indicator will go out.
