Using the direct access keypad

The ten-digit keypad on the remote control
can be used to directly access any track on
the disc. Press the digits of the track you wish
to access.

To access a track number greater than 9,
press the >10 key, and then enter the two
digit track number.

SRC (Sample-Rate Converter)

The Sample-rate converter will convert PCM
(Pulse Code Modulated) signals from a CD
playing to 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96
kHz or 192 kHz sample rate. The signal is
then processed by a 4-times over-sampling
filter before it is fed to the internal DAC
section. In addition, the converted signal is
routed to all digital outputs.

The Sample-rate converter works only on
PCM (Pulse Code Modulated) signals and will
therefore not operate when playing Super
Audio CDs.

To select the desired Sample-rate, press the
Sample Rate key on the remote control. The
Sample rate will be indicated on the front
panel display.
