According to performance of your connected receiver,
select a sound processing option for playback of a
disc that contains high frequency signals (sampling
frequency 96 kHz).

to high frequency signals of 96 kHz.
The DVD player outputs these signals in a disc

conform to high frequency signals of 96 kHz.
The DVD player outputs these signals in a disc
depressing the frequencies to 48 kHz.

frequency signals in a copyright protected disc,
depressing to 48 kHz.
• If you select “Off” while your connected receiver does
not conform to high frequency signals of 96 kHz, you
cannot hear output sound of those signals.
