My disc does not play. What should I check?
Check that the disc is inserted correctly (label side up) and that it is clean. Clean it from the center outward with a soft cloth. If condensation has formed, leave the player on for one hour. Make sure the disc is compatible (no CD-ROMs, DVDs, etc.).
How do I set speaker distances for multi-channel?
Press MENU, turn the dial to select SPK DIST, then press. Choose the speaker (FRT DIST, SURR DIST, CNTR DIST, SW DIST) and set the distance from 1.0 to 7.0 meters in 0.1 m steps. Use DIST UNIT to choose meters or feet.

  • A Super Audio CD can mark up to 255 track numbers.

You can play the following types of discs on this player.

  • Super Audio CDs
    • Audio CDs
    This player cannot play the following discs.
    • CD-ROMs (MP3, JPEG, etc.)
    • DVDs
    • D T S - C D s
  • DualDiscs, etc.

If you try to play CD-ROMs/DVDs, the error message “TOC ERROR” or “NO DISC” will appear. For DTS-CDs/DualDiscs, refer to their respective notes below.

This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product.

Notes on CD-R/CD-RW playback

Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may not be played back because of scratches, dirt, recording condition, or the drive's characteristics. Besides, the discs, which are not yet finalized at the end of recording, cannot be played back. In these cases, "READING" will remain or "TOC ERROR" will appear in the display.

Note on DTS-CDs

Do not play a DTS-CD on this player. If you do, severe noise will be generated.

Note on DualDiscs

A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded material on one side with digital audio material on the other side. However, since the audio material side does not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not guaranteed.

About the Super Audio CD

Super Audio CD is a new high-quality audio disc standard where music is recorded in the DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format (conventional CDs are recorded in the PCM format). The DSD format, using a sampling frequency 64 times higher than that of a conventional CD, and with 1-bit quantization, achieves both a wide frequency range and a wide dynamic range across the audible frequency range, and so provides music reproduction extremely faithful to the original sound.

Types of Super Audio CDs

There are two types of discs, depending on the Super Audio CD layer and CD layer combination.

Super Audio CD layer: A high-density signal layer for Super Audio CD

CD layer ^1) : A layer that is readable by a conventional CD player

Single layer disc

(a disc with a single Super Audio CD layer)

Enjoying a Multi-channel Super Audio CD

— Multi-channel management function

This player is equipped with a Multi-channel management function that sets the playback mode of the Super Audio CD by the DSD-DSP (built into the player) according to the layout or size of your speaker.

SONY SCDXA1200ES - — Multi-channel management function - 1

To set the Multi-channel management function, select the appropriate preset playback mode (2 channel mode or Multi-channel mode), and then adjust the output level balance for each speaker (only in the case of Multi-channel mode).

Notes

  • This features only work when you play the Super Audio CD.
  • You may not be able to adjust the output level balance depending on the speaker layout mode that you selected.

About "Large" or "Small" speaker

An “L” speaker is a speaker that can reproduce bass frequencies plentifully. If you select “S” for the surround speakers, the bass frequencies will come from the front speakers and/or sub woofer. For normal use, select “Mch DIRECT” or set all the speakers to “L” (ex. “5–LARGE+SW”, “5–LARGE”, etc.). If the sound is noisy or the Multi-channel playback is not effective while playing a Multi-channel Super Audio CD, change the settings of the speakers concerned to “S”.

5 Press I ◀ AMS ▶▶I.

To return to the normal display, press MENU on the player.

Notes

  • The Multi-channel management function does not work when you select “Mch DIRECT” (you cannot set the output level balance of each speaker).
  • The front speaker setting is set to “L” automatically when you set the sub woofer to “—”.
  • When you play a track that does not contain the LFE* signal, the signal for the sub woofer does not output. Therefore, when you select “Mch DIRECT”, “5-LARGE+SW”, or “NO-CNTR+SW”, no signal outputs from the sub woofer. However, when you select “5-SMALL+SW” or “F-LARGE+SW” (when you set the speaker setting to “S”), the bass frequencies will come from the sub woofer.
    * Low Frequency Enhancement (described as “.1 CH”)
  • If you select a playback mode other than “2ch DIRECT” or “Mch DIRECT” using the Multi-channel management function, the sound distribution to the speakers will change, possibly causing a decrease in overall sound volume. If this occurs, adjust the volume with the volume control on the connected amplifier.
  • If you change the playback mode while the player is in Multi-channel mode, the output level balance settings will be canceled.
  • This function cannot be used during CD playback.

Adjusting the output level balance of each speaker

You can adjust the following items in the case of Multi-channel mode:

SURR BAL

The relative output level balance between the front speakers (FRONT L/R) and the surround speakers (SURR L/R)

CNTR BAL

The relative output level balance between the front speakers (FRONT L/R) and the center speaker (CENTER)

SW BAL

The relative output level balance between the front speakers (FRONT L/R) and the sub woofer (SUB WOOFER)

Notes

  • Some adjustment may not work depending on the Multi-channel mode that you selected.
  • You cannot adjust the speaker level when “Mch DIRECT” is selected.

Additional Information

Precautions

On safety

  • Caution – The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.
  • Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the player and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
  • AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop.
  • The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

On power sources

  • Before operating the player, check that the operating voltage of the player is identical with your local power supply. The operating voltage is indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the player.
  • The player is not disconnected from the mains as long as it is attached to the mains, even if the player itself has been turned off.
  • If you are not going to use the player for a long time, be sure to disconnect the player from the mains. To disconnect the mains lead, grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.

On placement

  • Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the player.
  • Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a rug that might block the ventilation holes on the bottom.
  • Do not place the player in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock.

On operation

  • If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lenses inside the player. Should this occur, the player may not operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and leave the player turned on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates.
  • During power on, some noise may be heard while the disc is being loaded into the Super Audio CD player. This is not a malfunction.

On adjusting the volume

Do not turn up the volume too much while listening to a portion with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level portion is played.

On inserting a disc

You may hear a transmission or a mechanical sound from the player. This indicates that the player is automatically adjusting its internal mechanisms according to the inserted disc.

You may also hear the mechanical sound from the player when you insert a warped disc.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

On transportation

  • Be sure to remove the disc on the tray.
  • Be sure to close the disc tray.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
