This function only works in the DVS and DHP (w/o BYPASS

MODE). (The same contents are set for all operating modes.)

Input mode when playing CD sources

• When playing CDs containing recordings of live concerts,

etc., in the “AUTO” mode, the sound may be slightly broken

at the beginning. If this happens, switch to the “PCM”

mode.

Input mode when playing DTS sources

• If DTS-compatible CDs are played in the “PCM” mode,

noise is output because DTS playback is not possible.

To play a DTS-compatible source, be sure to set the input

mode to “AUTO” or “DTS”.

• Noise may be generated at the beginning of playback and

while searching during DTS playback in the AUTO mode. If

so, play in the DTS mode.
