Notes
• When you make the Multi-channel connection,
connect the ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks also using
another audio connecting cord so that you can play
a CD (or Super Audio CD) when you set the input
selector of your amplifier to CD (or Super Audio
CD) input .
• During playback of a conventional CD or a 2CH
Super Audio CD, the same signal that is output
from the ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks is also output
from the ANALOG 5.1CH FRONT L/R jacks.
• During playback of a Multi-channel Super Audio
CD, the same signal that is output from the
ANALOG 5.1CH FRONT L/R jacks is also output
from the ANALOG 2CH OUT jacks. (The down
mixed signal of the Multi-channel signal is not
played back.)
• There are some types of Super Audio CD disc, such
as 5CH, 4CH, and 3CH. When you play these disc,
the signal does not output from all the jacks of the
ANALOG 5.1CH OUT. For details of the playback,
see the cover or instructions of the Super Audio CD
disc.
