Outputs 2-channel audio from the the i.LINK (AUDIO) and the
AUDIO OUT terminals.
If multi-channel program material is played, the multi-channel
material will be downmixed to two channels and the
DOWNMIX indicator will light on the display.
See page 32 for how to set the downmix mode.
Multi Channel
The unit outputs the multi-channel surround sound.
Select this when the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal is connected to a
surround sound amplifier with a decoder.
5.1 indicator will lights on the display.
< Note that if “Multi Channel” is selected, only the front L/R
sound of the multi-channel material will be output from the
AUDIO OUT terminals.
< Note that some DVD discs cannot be downmixed (from multi
channel to 2-channel). In these cases, no digital sound will be
output.
< Speakers should be set up properly for multi-channel use. See
page 36 for details.
< This setting has no effect on the DIGITAL OUT terminals.
Digital output settings
[AUDIO q Digital Out]
ON *
Audio is output from the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal and the
DIGITAL OUT terminals.
OFF
Audio is not output from the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal and the
DIGITAL OUT terminals. If you are not using the these
terminals, we suggest that you use this OFF setting for better
analog sound.
< Digital sound from SACD discs cannot be output from the
DIGITAL OUT terminals.
< DVD audio at 192kHz or 174.4kHz is converted to
96/88.2kHz sampling frequency.
< If downsampling is turned on, 192kHz and 96kHz discs will
be automatically converted to 48kHz digital audio, and
174.4kHz and 88.2kHz discs will be converted to 44.1kHz
audio. Some discs converted in this way may not output
digital audio (depending on the disc).
