Hooking Up the Audio Components
Note
During playback of a Multi-channel Super Audio CD, the same
signal is output from the ANALOG 5.1CH FRONT L/R jacks and
ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks. (The downmixed signal of the Multi-
channel signal is not played back.)
About the ANALOG 2CH OUT
When you play a conventional CD or a 2CH Super Audio CD, the
stereo signal is sent to the FRONT, SURROUND, and CENTER/
SUB WOOFER D/A Converters, and each signal is combined
after D/A conversion, then combined signal is output from the
2CH OUT jacks.
Since each digital signal is converted to analog signal by three
converters, this system offers a three-fold improvement in signal
quality and a root three-fold noise ratio, the result is an improved
signal to noise ratio. Therefore, a high quality signal is output
from the ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks.
During playback of a Multi-channel Super Audio CD, the signal
conversion described above is not applied, and the same signal is
output from the ANALOG 5.1CH FRONT L/R jacks and
ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks. (The downmixed signal of the Multi-
channel signal is not played back.)
