Audio Menu
Digital output
Enables you to specify the type of digital output to suit
your AV receiver. Select [PCM only] if your receiver is not
capable of decoding multi-channel audio.
Select [All] if you connected this unit’s digital out jacks to
a multi-channel decoder receiver.
Choices: Off, PCM only, All
Initial setting: All
Note:
– Digital output is not available for SA-CDs.
Analog output
Enables you to specify the type of analog output suitable
for your AV receiver.
Choices: Stereo, DolbysurrCompat, 3D sound,
Multi-channel
Initial setting: Multi-channel
Stereo: In this setting, the multi-channel audio is down-
mixed to a stereo signal. Select this setting when
connecting to a TV, stereo amplifier/ receiver, etc.
DolbysurrCompat: Select this setting when using
equipment with a Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoder. In
this setting, the multi-channel audio (Dolby Digital,
MPEG-2, DTS) is downmixed to a Dolby Surround-
compatible 2-ch output. SA-CD and PCM signals with a
sampling frequency of over 88.2 kHz are downmixed to
normal stereo.
3D sound: In a setup without rear speakers (analogue
stereo output), 3D Sound remixes the six channels of
digital surround (except for SA-CD and PCM signals with
a sampling frequency of over 88.2 kHz) into a two
speaker output while retaining all of the original audio
information. The result is the sensation of being
surrounded by multiple speakers.
Multi-channel: Select this setting when using a multi-
channel AV receiver with 6-ch discrete inputs. The multi-
channel audio signals those of like DVD-Audio, DVD-
Video, and SA-CD are output from the respective 6-ch
discrete output jacks. In this mode, this unit will perform
DTS decoding, Dolby Digital 5.1-channel decoding, or
MPEG Multichannel decoding when applicable, and
Dolby Pro Logic II decoding on 2-ch sound tracks except
for SA-CD and PCM signals with a sampling frequency of
over 88.2 kHz.
PCM output
Enables you to select PCM digital output at 48 kHz or
96 kHz. If you select [48 kHz], PCM data will be
converted to 2-ch 48 kHz or less. Select [48 kHz] if the
connected equipment cannot process signals with a
sampling frequency of 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz.
Choices: 96 kHz, 48 kHz
Initial setting: 96 kHz
Note:
– Signals are converted to either 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz
despite the above settings if the disc has copy protection.
– If you select [96 kHz], signals with a sampling frequency
of over 96 kHz are converted to 2-ch 88.2 kHz or
96 kHz.
