DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT Use a digital optical cable (or SPDIF cable) to connect your TV to a compatible Dolby Digital or PCM receiver or decoder. Dolby Digital Technology offers theatre-quality sound (six audio channels).

If you own a receiver that uses an optical cable input, you can use an optical cable to connect the TV to that receiver for the best sound quality. Go to the Digital Audio Out screen in the Audio menu to select Auto Select or PCM as the output for this jack.

Note: This TV’s optical digital output 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 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 a Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM) receiver or decoder could create a high noise level, causing damage to headphones or speakers.

CableCARD Allows you to use a digital cable television card to receive digital cable services, including premium and HDTV cable channels, without the need for a set-top box. Go to page 10 for information on using the CableCARD slot.

HDMI/DVI INPUT (High-Definition Multimedia Interface/Digital Visual Interface) Provides an uncompressed digital interface that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV is also compatible with DVI devices.

Notes: The HDMI/DVI jack is not intended to be used with a computer.

If you connect a device with a DVI jack to the HDMI/DVI input, you’ll need an HDMI to DVI adapter. Also, connect audio cables to an input that is not in use. An example is shown on page 16. Then go to the Audio Connections menu and select DVI Audio Input to choose the input you’re using to receive audio.
