[AUDIO] Menu
Each disc has a variety of audio output options. Set the player’s Audio
options according to the type of audio system you use.
Note:
Since many factors affect the type of audio output, see “The unit’s Audio
Output Specifications” on page 19-20 for details.
HDMI / SPDIF (Digital Audio Output)
Select the output sound format when a device equipped with a HDMI or
Digital Audio input jack is connected to the HDMI OUT or DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack on this player.
[PCM Stereo] –
Select if you connect this unit’s HDMI OUT or
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to a device with two-channel digital stereo
decoder.
[PCM Multi-Ch] (HDMI only) –
Select if you connect this unit’s
HDMI OUT jack to a device with multi-channel digital decoder.
[DTS Re-Encode] –
Select if you connect this unit’s HDMI OUT or
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to a device with DTS decoder.
[Primary Pass-Thru] –
Select if you connect this unit’s DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) and HDMI OUT jack to a device
with LPCM, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS and
DTS-HD decoder.
Note:
When [HDMI] option is set to [PCM Multi-Ch], the audio may output as
PCM Stereo if the PCM Multi-Ch information is not detected from HDMI
device with EDID.
Sampling Freq. (Only for SPDIF audio)
[192KHz] –
Select this if your A/V Receiver or Amplifier is capable of
handling 192 KHz signals.
[96KHz] –
Select this if your A/V Receiver or Amplifier is NOT capable
of handling 192 KHz signals. When this choice is made, this unit auto-
matically converts any 192 KHz signals to 96 KHz so your system can
decode them.
[48KHz] –
Select this if your A/V Receiver or Amplifier is NOT capable
of handling 192 KHz and 96 KHz signal. When this choice is made,
this unit automatically converts any 192 KHz and 96 KHz signals to 48
KHz so your system can decode them.
Check the documentation for your A/V Receiver or Amplifier to verify its
capabilities.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
When a disc encoded in Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital Plus is playing back,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the audio output (the dif-
ference between the loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows
you to listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound.
Set DRC to [On] for this effect.
