Usually you don’t have to change the default setting, See ‘NTSC/PAL Conversion’ for detailed information.

Sound

Digital output

Factory setting: ALL.This means coaxial and optical outputs are on. If you are not connecting to equipment with a digital input, change the setting to OFF.

If your equipment doesn't include a digital multi-channel decoder, set the digital output to PCM only (Pulse Code Modulation).

Note:

When the setting is ALL, make sure that the selected audio format of the disc you play matches the connected equipment’s capability. If a digital signal which the equipment cannot handle is output, there may be a noise and that could damage your ears and your speakers.

When CDs were put on the market in the early stage, high tones from some of them would be heard as punch lacked.
