Audio Outputs
The Hybrid matrix has separate digital and analogue audio outputs so the HDMI audio can also be enjoyed via
older sound systems. The audio track routed via the separate audio outputs corresponds with what HDMI input
is selected on TV output 1.
(NB both video and audio remain on both HDMI outputs 1 and 2, the audio is not stripped from the HDMI
signal).
Important: The audio format is dependent on the EDID reported by the HDMI output 1 display device. Most
commonly this will be 2.0 PCM unless your HDTV is capable of receiving multi-channel audio such as 5.1 or
7.1. An audio settings change on the HDTV could be required to enable multi-channel audio acceptance.
2 x Phono RCA: supports 2-channel stereo PCM audio.
Optical Audio: supports multichannel audio formats over toslink/optical cable. For multichannel audio via the
optical output, the display connected to Out 1 must report an EDID accepting a multichannel audio input via
HDMI.
