Notes on connecting cables
• We recommend that you use a Sony HDMI
cable.
• We recommend that you use an HDMI cable
with the HDMI logo (made by Sony) for the
HDMI jack corresponding to high speed (an
HDMI version1.3, category 2 cable) when
you view images or listen to sound during a
Deep Color transmission or when you watch
a video image of 1080p or higher.
• We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI
conversion cable. When you connect an
HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D
component, the sound and/or the image may
not be output. Connect other audio cords or
digital connecting cords, then set “Digital
Assign” when the sound is not output
correctly.
Notes on HDMI connections
• An audio signal input to the HDMI IN jack
is output from the SPEAKERS jacks and
HDMI OUT jack. It is not output from any
other audio jacks.
• Video signals input to the HDMI IN jack can
only be output from the HDMI OUT jack.
The video input signals cannot be output
from the VIDEO OUT jacks or MONITOR
OUT jacks.
• When you want to listen to the sound from
the TV speaker, set “AUDIO OUT” to
“TV+AMP” in the HDMI menu (page 54). If
you cannot play back multi channel
software, set to “AMP”. However, the sound
will not output from the TV speaker.
• DSD signals of Super Audio CD are not
input and output.
• The multi/stereo area audio signals of a
Super Audio CD are not output.
• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit
length, etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack
may be suppressed by the connected
component. Check the setup of the
connected component if the image is poor or
the sound does not come out of a component
connected via the HDMI cable.
• Sound may be interrupted when the
sampling frequency or the number of
channels of audio output signals from the
playback component is switched.
• When the connected component is not
compatible with copyright protection
technology (HDCP), the image and/or the
sound from the HDMI OUT jack may be
distorted or may not be output.
In this case, check the specification of the
connected component.
• You can enjoy High Bitrate Audio (DTS-HD
Master Audio, Dolby TrueHD), multi-
channel Linear PCM only with an HDMI
connection.
• Set the image resolution of the player to
more than 720p/1080i to enjoy High Bitrate
Audio (DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby
TrueHD).
• The image resolution of player may need
certain settings be made before you can
enjoy multi channel Linear PCM. Refer to
the operating instructions of the player.
• Not every HDMI component supports all
functions that are defined by the specified
HDMI version. For example, components
that support HDMI, version 1.3, may not
support Deep Color.
• Refer to the operating instructions of each
connected component for details.
