Features of the player Compatible Disc Types

Super Audio CD is a new high-quality audio

disc standard where music is recorded in the

DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format

(conventional CDs are recorded in the PCM

format). The DSD format, using a sampling

frequency 64 times higher than that of a

conventional CD, and with 1-bit quantization,

achieves both a wide frequency range and a wide

dynamic range across the audible frequency

range, and so provides music reproduction

extremely faithful to the original sound.

Types of Super Audio CDs

There are two types of discs, depending on the

SA-CD layer and CD layer combination.

SA-CD layer: A high-density signal layer for

Super Audio CD

CD layer1): A layer that is readable by a

conventional CD player

Single layer disc

(a disc with a single SA-CD layer)

Hybrid disc2)

(a disc with an SA-CD layer and a CD layer)

An SA-CD layer consists of the 2 channel area

or the multi-channel area.

2 channel area: An area in which 2 channel

stereo tracks are recorded

Multi-channel area:

An area in which multi-

channel (up to 5.1 channels)

tracks are recorded

Example:

When the 2 channel area and the multi-channel area

are recorded on an SA-CD layer of a hybrid disc

1) You can play the CD layer on a conventional CD

player.

2) Since both layers are on one side, it is not necessary

to turn the disc over.

3) Press SA-CD/CD to select the layer you want to

listen to (see page 9).

4) In case of a disc with both areas, press MULTI/2CH

to select the area you want to listen to (see page 9).

humid place.

• Do not drop any foreign object into the remote

casing, particularly when replacing the batteries.

component. Be sure to turn off the power of all

components before making connections and

5.1CH input jacks (multi-channel amplifier, AV

amplifier, etc.) and connect the player and the

amplifier through the ANALOG 5.1CH OUT

jacks (FRONT L/R, SURR L/R, CENTER, SUB

WOOFER), you can play a Multi-channel Super

Audio CD and enjoy the multi-channel

playback.

Use audio connecting cords for this connection.
