Achieving high quality sound
reproduction
The following settings enable you to play audio CDs, 96
kHz DVDs, and SACDs at the highest possible sound
quality.
By pressing AUDIO DIRECT on the player when it is
stopped, the video and digital audio output can be
switched on or off. When the playback audio signal is set
to be output from the digital connectors, this button will
cut the video signal. By setting the digital audio signal to
off, this button reduces the effect of the video and digital
circuitry on the audio signal. When no video signal is
output from the player, the VIDEO OFF indicator lights
up, and when the digital audio or video signal is cut, the
DIGITAL OFF indicator lights up.
By pressing the VIDEO ON/OFF button on the remote
when the player is stopped, the video output can be
switched on or off. When the video output is set to off, the
effect of the digital and analog video circuitry on the
audio signal is cut to a minimum. When no video signal
output from the player, the VIDEO OFF indicator lights
up on the player.
