CONNECTIONS / REPRODUCTION
Concerning the digital audio output
Depending on the disc format, either Dolby Digital sound or Linear PCM sound will be outputted
from the unit´s digital audio output connector (PCM/Dolby Digital) as shown in the table below.
DiSC Sound Recording Format Digital Audio Output From Connector
DVD Dolby Digital Dolby Digital Bitstream
Linear PCM Linear PCM (96 kHz Samplingrate only)
Audio-CD Linear PCM Linear PCM (44,1 kHz Samplingrate only)
Video-CD MPEG Linear PCM (44,1 kHz Samplingrate only)
Note:
• For DVDs, sound having 96 kHz sampling cav be outputted from the unit´s digital output
connector.
Information:
• Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique developed by the Dolby Laboratories
Licensing Corporation. Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo (2-channel)
sound, this technique enables a large quantity of sound data to be efficienly recorded on a disc.
• Linear PCM is a signal recording format used in audio CDs. While audio CDs are recorded in
44.1 kHz/16bit, DVD are recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up to 96 kHz/24 bit.
• If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic
from the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1-channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as
from titles with the Dolby Surround mark.
Caution for the digital output connector:
• Do not connect an amplifier (with an optical digital input connector) which does not contain
the Dolby Digital decoder.
• Otherwise attemting to play DVD may cause such a high level of noise that it may be harmful
to your ears and damage your speakers.
• Video CDs and audio CDs can be played as they would normally be played.
