DIGITAL OUTPUT

Set the digital output according to your optional audio component connections.

ALL

Select this if you have connected the digital audio output jack to a multi-channel decoder/ receiver.

Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG-2 and PCM digital audio signals are output.

Also refer to the manual supplied with the connected component.

PCM ONLY

Select this only if your receiver is not capable of decoding multi-channel audio signals. Multi-channel audio signals are converted to 2-channel linear PCM audio signals.

LPCM OUT

Select this if you have connected this unit to a PCM-compatible receiver via a digital jack, such as a coaxial jack. In this case, you may need to adjust [LPCM OUT].

Discs are recorded at a certain sampling rate. The higher the sampling rate, the better the sound quality.

96KHz

Select this to play back discs recorded at the sampling rate of 96 kHz. If higher than 48 kHz disc is copy protected, the digital output is automatically converted to the sampling rate of 48 kHz or lower.

Notes

When HDMI audio signals are output, you cannot select [DIGITAL AUDIO].

When Dolby Pro Logic II decoder is activated, the sampling rate of digital output is limited to 48 kHz or lower.
