SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

Connecting a Subwoofer

To connect a subwoofer to the TV:

1. Connect the subwoofer’s audio input to the LFE/SUBWOOFER OUT jack.

Connecting a Wireless Transmitter

To connect a wireless transmitter (for wireless speakers, wireless headphones, etc.):

1.Connect the transmitter’s audio input to the TRANSMITTER OUT jack. Make sure to connect the right audio cable to the right audio jack and the left audio cable to the left audio jack. The right audio connector is usually red and the left audio connector is usually white.

2.Specify that you have connected a wireless transmitter by pressing MENU on the remote control, selecting Audio, then Special Audio, then Wireless Audio. Select the appropriate variable audio output. For more information, see the section in this book, “Adjusting TV Controls.”

Connecting a Stereo Amplifier

1.Connect the amplifier’s TV audio inputs to the left and right FIX/VARIABLE OUT jacks.

2.You may prefer to turn off the TV’s internal speakers by selecting a speaker configuration with external speakers. Select Audio from the main menu and then select Speakers.

Important: Do not use the amplifier’s PHONO inputs. Consult the amplifier’s owner’s manual for the manufacturer’s recommended hookup.

FIX/VARIABLE OUT

The FIX/VARIABLE OUT jacks on the back panel provide a fixed or variable audio signal. When set to “variable” via the Audio menu, they are ideal for use with an audio amplifier that does not have its own remote volume control. When set to “fixed,” the output volume stays the same no matter how the volume changes on the TV.
