Warning regarding the playback of DAT/MD sources
When playing DAT/MD sources through the amplifier,
do not play a DAT/MD that contains digital recordings
made from a DVD player whose digital output was set
to “DOLBY DIGITAL.” High volume noise will be
output which may damage the amplifier and your
speakers.
Notes
• This amplifier is compatible only with digital components
using 32, 44.1, or 48-kHz sampling frequencies and not
compatible with 96 kHz.
• Be sure to connect digital components (CD player, DAT/
MD deck, etc.) to the analog jacks as well as the digital
jacks in order to do analog recording.
