DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
To connect the unit's digital output to
an external device equipped with a
digital input, this item must be set
correctly.
See the table below for details
about the relation between the
setting and output signals.
•
PCM ONLY
Should be selected when you
connect the DIGITAL OUT jack of the
unit to the linear PCM digital input
of other audio equipment.
• When playing a DVD VIDEO or
Audio CD disc with DTS, use a DTS
decoder to get correct signals from
your speakers.
• With some DVD VIDEO discs that are
not fully copy-protected, a 20 or 24
bit digital signal may be output.
• A signal with the 88.2 kHz or more
sampling frequency cannot be
output from the DIGITAL OUT jack,
regardless of the setting (due to the
copy protection issue).
• MP3 digital audio data cannot be
output.
•
DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM
Should be selected when you
connect the digital input of a Dolby
Digital decoder or an amplifier with
a built-in Dolby Digital decoder.
When this option is selected,
playing back a disc recorded by the
DTS or MPEG Multichannel format
outputs a linear PCM digital signal.
•
STREAM/PCM
Should be selected when you
connect the digital input of an
amplifier with a built-in DTS, MPEG
Multichannel or Dolby Digital
decoder, or the stand-alone unit of
such a decoder.
