to make a separate audio connection, un less you would like to use other audio outputs; for example, if
you want to connect your DIRECT V HD Receiver to a stereo or home theater system. Note: HDMI
cable is not included with the DIRECT V HD Receiver.
• Best 2: You may also receive digta l audio by connecting an Optical Audio c able from the DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on your DIRECT V HD Receiver to a DIGITAL AUDIO IN
(OPTICAL) jack on your TV. is output can also be used if you wis h to listen to audio on a stereo
or home theater system, even if you are already u sing an HDMI cable for audio on your TV. Note:
Optical Audio cable is not included with the DIR ECTV HD Receiver.
