Outputs audio from the FRONT L and R terminals. If the
source is multi-channel surround, this is downmixed into 2
channels. Use this setting when you have no multi-channel
analog connections.
Multi Channel
Use this when the unit is connected to an AV amplifier with
5.1 surround analog inputs. The sound is output from the six
multi-channel analog outputs.
< Note that the audio volume changes when the mode is
changed between 2-channel to multi-channel.
Also note that some DVD discs cannot be downmixed (from
multi-channel to 2-channel). In these cases, no digital sound
will be output.
< Speakers should be set up properly for multi-channel use. See
page 36 for details.

< No digital output is possible from SACD discs.
< DVD audio at 192kHz or 174.4kHz is converted to
96/88.2kHz sampling frequency.
< If downsampling is turned on, 192kHz and 96kHz discs will
be automatically converted to 48kHz digital audio, and
174.4kHz and 88.2kHz discs will be converted to 44.1kHz
audio. Some discs converted in this way may not output
digital audio (depending on the disc).
