z If your sound system only has a stereo input port or you want to connect your surround sound system to an independent stereo

system in addition to HDMI, optical fiber or coaxial output port, you can connect that system to the independent STEREO AUDIO

OUT port of this player.

z This product has two groups of stereo audio output ports: RCA terminal and XLR balanced terminal.

z You’d better give priority to choose XLR terminal, because it outperforms the RCA terminal in noise suppression and signal

integrity.

Notes

z Independent stereo output ports will automatically down mix multi-track audio source signals into stereo signals, but independent

stereo output will not be affected by down mix or menu setting>other speaker setting options of sound processing.

z The UDP-900 is equipped with a 7.1 channel analog audio output, which can be connected to the 7.1 channel analog audio input

panel of a receiver or amplifier. This connection method is necessary for A/V receivers that do not support HDMI audio input. At the

same time, this connection method is also recommended as a good use of the advanced digital-to-analog converter of the

UDP-900.

z If the A/V receiver or amplifier only has a 5.1 channel audio input, then there is no need to connect the SBL (left rear surround) and

SBR (right rear surround) terminals. Set the audio mode to 5.1 channels in the speaker configuration of the setup menu.

z If your audio system is only equipped with stereo audio input, or if you want to connect a dedicated stereo system in addition to the

surround sound system that is already connected to the HDMI or S/PDIF output, you can connect it to the FL (left front) and FR

(right front) terminals of this player. Set the audio mode to stereo in the speaker configuration of the setup menu.

z The UDP900 implements USB Audio Class 2.0 sound card functionality and can act as a standalone digital-to-analog converter

(DAC). The built-in ES9038Pro audio processor is used to process digital audio signals. The processed analog audio can be output

from independent stereo terminals (RCA and XLR) and the front panel headphone output.

z You can use a USB cable (not provided) to directly connect a digital audio device (such as a PC, MAC computer, or mobile phone)

to the USB input of the UDP900. You may need to make some settings on the audio source device to ensure that the audio signal is

output from the correct terminal. Then use the XMOS key on the remote control to enable this function.

Notes

z The USB audio input of UDP900 supports up to 2-channel 32-bit 384k Hz PCM and DSD256 signals.

z To input audio data from a Windows computer to UDP900 via USB, you need to install the sound card driver software on your

computer in advance. This software can be downloaded from the MAGNETAR official website (magnetar-audio.com).

z No driver installation is required for Mac computers and mobile phones.

BD-Live

Titles of certain %OX-ray discs have functions of BD-Live (%OX-ray interactions). BD-Live provides extra

downloadable content and additional online interactive programs. The BD-Live content also varies with

discs and publishers. They might include extra captions, comments, movie trailers, games and online

chat. Only if the player is connected to the broadband Internet can it play BD-Live content.

BD-Live content is represented in different forms dependent upon manufacturers’ organization of the content. For instance, start

downloading BD-Live content at the start time of playing, and BD-Live will be optional on the main menu of the disc. Reminders will be

displayed to ask you if you need to start downloading, and inquire you if you have to register membership or an account. Please enjoy the

BD-Live content based on disc instructions.

Your Internet connection speed and capacity of BD-Live content server will affect download speed of the BD-Live content. If you find that

download is slow or playing is intermittent, you’d better only play contents of the disc without using the BD-Live function, or try again at

some other time. When you use the BD-Live function, your player ID, compact disc and IP (Internet protocol) address would be sent to

the content provider through the Internet. Generally, no information on personal identity will be sent. Instead, there are really certain

technologies which will match your IP address with certain geographical areas or service providers. Therefore, your Internet service

provider is able to know who is using a certain IP address. If the BD-Live content provider requires you to log in with membership

qualification or an account, it will be able to obtain information about your membership qualification or account. Please confirm with your

Internet service provider and BD-Live content provider about their privacy policies.

You can restrict the access to the BD-Live network by setting menu of the player.

Play Media Documents

This product can also play digital media documents apart from standard disc formats such as %OX-ray discs, DVD, CD and SACD. You

canappreciate data discs (recordable CD, DVD or %OX-ray discs), USB flash disks, hard disks or network storage devices.

Owing to diversity of media documents, coding software and technologies, we cannot assure compatibility with all your original or

downloaded content, but we will try our best to provide support in respect of such content.

Play from USB Storage Devices

This product has two USB ports: including one USB 3.0 port on the back panel and one USB 2.0 port on the front panel. You can connect

a USB storage device to either of these USB ports.

The USB ports are used for supplying maximum power supply (5 V, 500 mA) for USB storage devices. This power supply is high enough

for all USB flash disks and flash memory card readers, but might be insufficient for USB flash disks.

Therefore, in using USB flash disks, you’d better use external power supply. The USB port on the front panel is only used for upgrading,

and must not be utilized for supplying power to other equipment.

Notes

z This function is for USB storage devices only. This type of equipment is compatible with a majority of USB flash disks, mobile hard

disks and card readers. For other devices (including MP3 players, digital cameras and cellphones), there might be compatibility

problems.

z All compatible USB storage devices must be in FAT, FAT32, exFAT formats and compatible with NTFS.

z Incompatible USB storage devices might make the player stop responding. Under this circumstance, it is only necessary to switch

off power supply and remove the USB storage device before turning on the player again.

z The player reads the USB storage devices under the read-only mode. To minimize risks of data damages, you’d better not remove

the USB devices until the player stops playing.

left and right matrix. Receivers that support Dolby Pro Logic can decode two-channel audio into surround

sound audio.

Stereo --- Downmixes multi-channel audio into two-channel stereo output. For original stereo content, the output

remains unchanged. For original multi-channel content, the surround and center channels are mixed into

the left front and right front channels.

compensate for the audio transmission time difference caused by the speaker position.

3. Channel Volume: Set the volume of each channel. Since most A/V receivers have channel volume adjustment and speaker

sensitivity difference compensation functions, channel volume setting is usually not required. However, if your receiver does not

have this function (many receivers’ multi-channel analog inputs do not support it), you can adjust the channel volume through the

player. For the most accurate results, it is recommended that you use a calibration disc (such as “Digital Video Essentials HD

Basics”) and an SPL (sound pressure level) meter.
