®

/

TM

) technology.

! Input of multi-channel linear PCM digital audio signals (192 kHz or less) for up to 8 channels
! Input of the following digital audio formats:

— Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, High bitrate audio (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD

High Resolution Audio), CD, SACD (DSD signal)

Notes

! An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High

Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a
separate adaptor (DVI

dHDMI) to do so. A DVI connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult

your local audio dealer for more information.

! If you connect a component that is not compatible with HDCP, an HDCP ERROR message is displayed on

the front panel display. Some components that are compatible with HDCP still cause this message to be dis-
played, but so long as there is no problem with displaying video this is not a malfunction.

! Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal

transfers.

! This receiver supports SACD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. To take advantage

of these formats, however, make sure that the component connected to this receiver also supports the corre-
sponding format.

! Use a High Speed HDMI

Cable. If an HDMI cable other than a High Speed HDMI

®

/

TM

Cable is used, it may

not work properly.

! When an HDMI cable with a built-in equalizer is connected, it may not operate properly.
! Signal transfer is only possible when connected to a compatible component.
! HDMI format digital audio transmissions require a longer time to be recognized. Due to this, interruption in the

audio may occur when switching between audio formats or beginning playback.

! Turning on/off the device connected to this unit’s HDMI OUT terminal during playback, or disconnecting/con-

necting the HDMI cable during playback, may cause noise or interrupted audio.
