DirecTV H20 manual Making the Audio Connections

Making the Audio Connections

•Best: If you connected your DIRECTV HD Receiver to your TV with HDMI cables you do not need to make a separate audio connection, unless you would like to use other audio outputs; for example, if you want to connect your DIRECTV HD Receiver to a stereo or home theater system. Note: HDMI cable is not included with the DIRECTV HD Receiver.

•Best 2: You may also receive digtal audio by connecting an Optical Audio cable from the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on your DIRECTV HD Receiver to a DIGITAL AUDIO IN (OPTICAL) jack on your TV. This output can also be used if you wish to listen to audio on a stereo or home theater system, even if you are already using an HDMI cable for audio on your TV. Note: Optical Audio cable is not included with the DIRECTV HD Receiver.

•Good: For analog audio, connect the white (L) and red (R) RCA-type cables from the DIRECTV HD Receiver to your TV.
