AUDIO/VIDEO OUTPUT Lets you connect an amplifier or audio receiver for improved sound quality or an external video monitor.

•FIXED AUDIO L/R Provides fixed-level audio output from the TV. This audio output is ideal for connecting an A/V receiver when you want to control the volume through the A/V receiver.

•VARIABLE AUDIO Provides variable-level audio output. Volume levels are controlled by the volume controls on the TV and remote control.

•SUBWOOFER Provides lower bass audio frequencies from the TV to a subwoofer.

Note: If you’ve connected a subwoofer, make sure you set the External Subwoofer option in the Sound menu. Go to page 43 for instructions.

COMPONENT INPUTS Lets you connect a component video source, such as a VCR.

•CMP1 Y PB PR (Component Video) Provides optimum picture quality because the video is separated into three signals. Use three video-grade cables for the connection. When using CMP1 Y PB PR, make sure to connect left and right audio cables to the CMP1 L and R Audio Input jacks.

•CMP1 L (Audio) Provides left audio connection. The left audio connector is usually white.

•CMP1 R (Audio) Provides right audio connection. The right audio connector is usually red.

•CMP2 Y PB PR, and L and R Audio Allows you to connect a second component video source. Their description is the same as CMP1 above. When using CMP2 Y PB PR, make sure you connect the left and right audio cables to the CMP2 Audio jacks.

COMPOSITE INPUTS Lets you connect another component such as a VCR, DVD player, or laserdisc player. Its AUDIO jacks are the same as described for CMP1 above.

•VID1 S-VIDEOProvides better picture quality than the video jacks (VID1 and 2 Video) because the color part of the picture is separated from the black and white part of the picture. When using VID1 S-VIDEO, make sure to connect left and right audio cables to the VID1 L/MONO and R Audio Input jacks.

•VID1 V (Video) Provides composite video connection. The video connector is usually yellow.

•VID2 S-VIDEO, V and L/MONO and R Audio Allows you to connect a component such as a VCR, DVD player, or laserdisc player. Their description is the same as VID1 above.

Note: For each VID jack group (VID1 and VID2), you may connect either an S-Video or Video cable. Do not connect both at the same time in either of the VID jack groups.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT Lets you connect a Dolby Digital receiver to your TV/DVD, if your receiver has an optical input. Use an optical cable (or SPDIF cable) to connect your TV/DVD to the receiver for theatre-quality sound. Go to page 41 for more information on digital audio.

Note: This TV/DVD’s OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT jack fully complies with the international standard governing this type of jack (IEC958), and is designed for connection to a Dolby Digital (AC-3® or PCM) receiver or Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM) decoder. Older equipment, some of which is not fully compliant with IEC958, may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such a connection using anything other than Dolby Digital AC-3 or PCM receiver or decoder could create a high noise level, causing damage to headphones or speakers.
