Connecting to an Amplifier via HDMI Output 

Connect the player’s HDMI OUT jack to the corresponding in jack on your
amplifier. Use a HDMI cable 

(H1)

. You will need to activate the player’s

digital output. (See “[AUDIO] Menu” on pages 21-22.)

Digital Multi-channel sound

A digital multi-channel connection provides the best sound quality. For this
you need a multi-channel Audio/Video Receiver that supports one or more
of the audio formats supported by your player. Check the receiver manual
and the logos on the front of the receiver. (PCM Stereo, PCM Multi-Ch,
Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS and/or DTS-HD)

Tip: 

Connect the amplifier’s HDMI output jack to HDMI input jack on your TV
using a HDMI cable 

(H2)

if your amplifier has HDMI output jack. 

Notes:

• You must select a digital audio output and a maximum sampling 

frequency that your Amplifier (or AV receiver) accepts using [SPDIF],
[HDMI] and [Sampling Freq.] options on the [Setup] menu 
(see page 21-22). 

• With digital audio connection (SPDIF or HDMI), Disc Menu button

sounds of BD-ROM may not be heard if the [SPDIF] or [HDMI] option is
set to [Primary Pass-Thru].

• If the audio format of the digital output does not match the capabilities of

your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or no
sound at all.

• Multi-channel Digital Surround Sound via digital connection can only be

obtained if your receiver is equipped with a Digital Multi-channel
decoder. 

• To see the audio format of the current disc in the on-screen display,

press AUDIO.
