Sound Projector Technology

The TV’s bank of speakers can be adjusted to reflect sound off the room walls to create a surround sound effect.

Setup can be performed manually and/or automatically, depending on your TV model:

Manual setup only	151 series
Manual or Auto setup	153 series

•To create the surround sound effect, the room walls must reflect sound and not be covered with sound- absorbant material.

•Repeat the setup procedure if you reconfigure the room’s walls or furnishings.

Before You Begin

Positioning the TV

•Center the seating area in front of the TV and at least six feet away from it.

•Arrangements that give good results:

•If the room is an odd shape, locate the TV to take best advantage of wall reflections.

•Avoid locations that may distort sound reflections.

Connecting the TV

To get the full benefit of the TV’s Sound Projector, the TV must be connected to a source input providing digital surround sound. The TV can receive digital sur- round sound on:

•Any HDMI jack

•The DIGITAL AUDIO INPUT jack (when used in conjunction with INPUT 2)

•The ANT input (from some digital broadcasts)

See page 19 for suggestions on connecting your devices.
