Sound Problems

If no sound is coming out of the TV

Be sure you have an audio cable securely connected between the TV and

 

 

the source device. Check that the audio and video cables connect to the

 

 

same group of connectors on the TV, such as Component 1.

 

 

On the side of the TV, press the

volume+ button one or more times to be

 

 

sure sound is not muted and the volume is not too low.

 

 

• Press Settings, go to Sound > Advanced sound > Internal speakers, and be

 

 

sure the speakers are turned on.

 

 

 

• Be sure that the mute and volume settings are correct on the source device,

 

 

such as a VCR, camcorder, or computer.

external sound system

If the source is the cable or antenna input to the TV, be sure you have an

 

 

audio cable connected from the TV output to the sound system. The

 

 

connection can be either a digital audio cable or a stereo cable.

 

• If the audio output from the source device is connected to the TV, verify that:

 

 

(1) an audio cable is connected from the TV output to the sound system

 

 

(digital or stereo) and (2) the audio and video cables from the source device

 

 

are connected to the same input on the TV (not needed for HDMI). If the

 

 

audio cable from the TV output is a stereo cable, press the

volume+

 

 

button on the side of the TV one or more times to be sure the sound output is

 

 

not muted and the volume is not too low.

 

 

• If the audio output from the source device is connected directly to the sound

 

 

system, check the cable connections and settings on those two devices.

 

 

 

If the volume of the TV speakers

If the source device has a volume control, increase its volume. For example,

cannot go high enough

 

a set-top cable box might have a volume control. You can set the volume of

 

 

the TV speakers using the volume control on the TV or on the source device.

 

 

 

If the sound is inconsistent or weak

Press Settings and go to Sound > Advanced sound > Standard audio. Try

 

 

different settings for the current channel or source.

 

If the remote control does not change the volume of the sound

See “Remote Control Problems” on page 64.

If the sound is out of sync with the picture

If the audio from the current source is connected to an external receiver or sound system, the TV cannot synchronize the audio. Check whether the receiver or sound system has an adjustment for sound delay. If it does, try adjusting the delay. Otherwise, you can purchase an external sound-delay device and insert it in the audio line between the source and the receiver or sound system, then adjust the delay.

If possible, try connecting the device using a different video input on the TV. For example, try connecting to the HDMI or component-video input. Depending on the source device, different video connections can have different audio synchronizations.
