For this reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited. To avoid possibledamage to the audio system, proper precautions should taken by the consumer if the analog outputs are connected directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output (S/PDIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.This unit is equipped with DTS Digital Surround™ decoder.When playing Dolby Digital or DTS-encoded software inmultichannel configuration, the connected audio signalshould be the digital signal.The digital inputs of the KRF-X9995D are not compatiblewith an audio signal with 192 kHz sampling frequency or96 kHz multichannel audio signal.
