Notes on HDMI connections
• Use a HDMI cable with the HDMI logo
(made by Sony).
• 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.
• When you want to listen to the sound from
the TV speaker, set "AUDIO FOR HDMI"
to "TV+AMP" in the VIDEO menu (page
40). If you cannot play back multi channel
software, set to "AMP". However, the sound
will not output from the TV speaker.
• The multi/stereo area audio signals of a
Super Audio CD are not output.
• Be sure to turn on the receiver when the
video and audio of a playback component
are being output to a TV via the receiver. If
the power supply of the receiver is not turned
on, neither video nor audio is transmitted.
• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit
length, etc.) transmitted from a 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 multi channel Linear PCM
only with an HDMI connection.
• Set the resolution of the image of the
playback component to 720p, 1080i or
1080p when you output 96 kHz multi
channel sound over a HDMI connection.
• We do not recommend using a HDMI-DVI
conversion cable. When you connect a
HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D
component, the sound and/or the image may
not be output.
• You may need to make certain settings on
the image resolution of the player before you
can enjoy multi channel Linear PCM. Refer
to the operating instructions of the player.
• For details on HDMI setup of the connected
component, refer to the operating
instructions supplied with the connected
