The digital output of the SACD1000 does not provide
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) signals. If your
amplifer/receiver can only decode PCM and not multi-
channel signals such as Dolby Digital, do not connect
your SACD player using the digital input. This could
damage your amplifier and/or speakers.

with multi-channel decoder (Dolby Digital,
MPEG 2 and DTS)
Digital Multi-channel sound (not for SACD)
For this you need a multi-channel A/V receiver that
supports one or more of the DVD audio formats
supported by your SACD player (MPEG 2, Dolby Digital
and DTS). Check the receiver manual and the logos on
the front of the receiver.
