• 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 “Output
Signals through the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT Terminal” on
page 68 for details about the relation between the setting and
output signals.
Select one of the following settings:
PCM ONLY
Select when you connect to the linear PCM digital input
terminal of other audio equipment.
DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM
Select when you connect to the digital input terminal of
a Dolby Digital decoder or an amplifier with a built-in
Dolby Digital decoder.
STREAM/PCM
Select when you connect the digital input terminal of an
amplifier with a built-in MPEG Multichannel, DTS, or
Dolby Digital decoder, or the stand-alone unit of such a
decoder.
• D. (dynamic) RANGE COMPRESSION
You can compress the dynamic range (the difference of the
loudest sound to the softest sound) to enjoy a powerful sound even
at a low volume level when listening to Dolby Digital software.
This is useful when enjoying the Surround sound at night.
The effectiveness varies depends on a software.
Select one of the following settings:
AUTO • When SURROUND SETTING is set to “OFF”
Applies the compression effect to the mixed-down
multi-channel sound.
• When SURROUND SETTING is set to “AUTO” or
“ON”
Any compression effect will not be applied to the
multi-channel sound. You can enjoy the original
surround sound.
ON Applies the compression effect. Select to always use this
function for all Dolby digital software. Loud sound will
become low and vice versa.
• SURROUND SETTING
You can enjoy the Surround mode simply by playing back a disc
when the surround setting is in use—“AUTO” or “ON.”
This setting takes effect only when the source is disc player.
This setting does not affect DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT setting.
Select one of the following settings:
AUTO • If Dolby Digital or DTS multi-channel software is
played back, the corresponding Surround mode will
be turned on automatically.
• If Dolby Surround signal comes in, Dolby Pro Logic
will be turned on.
• If Linear PCM (used for CD, SVCD, VCD and some
DVDs), MPEG Multichannel, or MP3 sound is played
back, the Surround mode will be turned off.
ON • If multi-channel software is played back, the
corresponding Surround mode—Dolby Digital or
DTS—will be turned on automatically.
• If 2-channel software is played back, Dolby Pro Logic
will be turned on.
OFF The Surround mode will be deactivated for all discs.
(The multi-channel signal is mixed down to 2-channel
signal.)
