Notes

When you connect headphones, no signals are output at the speaker terminals.

All digital multi-channel audio signals are mixed down to the left and right headphone channels.

When “MULTI CH” is selected as the input source, only the signals input at the MULTI CH INPUT FRONT jacks are output.

Muting the audio output

Press LMUTE on the remote control to mute the audio output. Press LMUTE again to resume the audio output.

y

The VOLUME level indicator flashes while the mute function is on.

You can configure the muting level with “Muting Type” (page 95).

Displaying the input source information

You can display the format, sampling frequency, channel, bit rate and flag data of the current input signal.

1Set the operation mode selector to FAMP and then press 8STATUS on the remotecontrol.The input source information screen appears in the GUI screen.2Press 9l / h to toggle between the audio and video information.

Audio information

Format

Signal format. When this unit cannot detect a

 

digital signal, it automatically switches to

 

analog input.

 

 

Sampling

The number of samples per second taken from

 

a continuous signal to make a discrete signal.

 

 

Channel

The number of source channels in the input

 

signal (front/surround/LFE). For example, a

 

multi-channel soundtrack with 3 front

 

channels, 2 surround channels and LFE, is

 

displayed as “3/2/0.1”.

 

 

Bitrate

The number of bits passing a given point per

 

second.

 

 

Dialogue

The dialogue normalization level preset to the

 

current input bitstream signal.

 

 

Flag1/Flag2

Flag data encoded in the bitstream, or PCM

 

signals that cue this unit to automatically

 

switch decoders.

 

 

Notes

“–––” appears when this unit cannot display the corresponding information.

Some high definition audio bitstream contents may not include the discrete surround back left and right channel signals but are encoded at the bitrate of 192 kHz.

Even if you make settings to output bitstreams directly, some players convert the Dolby TrueHD or Dolby Digital Plus bitstreams to the Dolby Digital bitstreams, while converting the DTS-HD Master Audio or DTS-HD High Resolution Audio bitstreams to the DTS bitstreams.
