Audio
If the monitor or device you have connected
using HDMI is not compatible with
compressed multi-channel formats, you
should set this to
Linear PCM
, otherwise set
to
Auto
.
•
Linear PCM
– All audio signals are output
as linear PCM.
•
Auto
– Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG
sources are processed according to how
they were encoded, and linear PCM
sources are heard with no processing.
• Even with
Auto
selected, if the monitor or
device you have connected using HDMI is
not compatible with multi-channel
formats, the audio signal will be output as
linear PCM.
• It is not possible to output SACD from the
HDMI connection.
• If necessary, sources with high sample
rates (such as DVD-Audio 88.2/96/176.4/
192 kHz sources) will be downsampled to
match the sampling rate of your
connected HDMI component.
CD Playback
• Default setting:
PCM Playback
When set to
PCM Playback
, playback is opti-
mized for standard audio CDs. You can also
play DTS CDs, however you may notice some
noise when a DTS CD starts playing. This is
not a malfunction.
When set to
DTS CD Playback
, playback is
optimized for DTS CDs. In this mode you
cannot play standard audio CDs through the
analog outputs. Change the setting back to

to play standard CDs.
