Connecting a sound system

For best home theater sound, connect the audio output of your video source directly to a stereo or surround sound system (connection 1 in the following illustration). Refer to the instructions provided with your video device.

However, in some situations, you might want to use a simpler setup that uses the single speaker built into the projector (connection 2 in the following illustration).
