•
Stereo (default) – Play the two-channel audio
layer. Select this option if you have a
two-channel audio system (normally connected
via the analog audio outputs).
•
CD Mode – Play the CD layer of a hybrid
SACD disc. The only reason to select this option
is if you have a two-channel audio system and
you are playing one of a handful of discs that
doesn’t have a stereo SACD layer.
The “Audio” button on the remote control
provides a shortcut that can toggle between the
multi-channel and stereo areas of an SACD, but it
cannot toggle between the SACD and CD layers
of a hybrid disc.
DVD-Audio Mode
Select which portion of a DVD-Audio disc to play.
The options are:
•
DVD-Audio (default) – Play the DVD-Audio
portion of the disc with high-resolution audio.
Select this option if you are using either the
analog audio outputs or the HDMI output
connected to a surround-sound processor with
capability to accept high-resolution digital
audio data streams.
•
DVD-Video – Play the DVD-Video portion of
the disc with Dolby Digital or DTS audio.
Select this option if you have an older
surround-sound processor that won’t accept
high sample rates.
