Loewe 23332507.020 manual Connecting other audio amplifiers or active speakers

Operating additional equipment

Connecting other audio amplifiers or active speakers

In the connection wizard, select “HiFi/AV amplifier” under “Equipment selection: audio component”. The connection wizard allows configuration of different audio amplifiers (stereo amplifiers, surround amplifiers, analogue or digital) with different sound formats (Dolby Digital, dts, MPEG and Stereo/PCM). Refer to the operating instructions for the audio amplifier to be connected.

Select “Digital“ under “Audio transmission“ for digital audio amplifiers. Connect the digital audio output of the TV AUDIO DIGITAL OUT to the digital audio input of the digital amplifier.

Assign the digital audio input to the socket through which the corresponding picture is transmitted (e.g. AV2 if a DVD player is connected there). Then the digital sound is passed to the digital audio output of the TV set and fed to the external audio amplifier via this.

Specify which sound formats can be decoded with your digital amplifier (Dolby Digital, MPEG, dts).

Specify under “Type of amplifier“ whether the digital amplifier is a stereo or surround amplifier.

If it is a surround amplifier, specify whether or not the TV loudspeakers are to be used as centre loudspeakers. Connect the centre output of the amplifier to the centre output of the TV using a cinch cable, if necessary.

Note: do not use the centre loudspeaker connection on the amplifier; instead use the pre-amplifier centre output.

Select “Analogue“ for “Sound transmission“ for analogue audio amplifiers. The sound for the analogue amplifier is transmitted via the AUDIO OUT L/R connections of the TV to the audio amplifier. Connect the amplifier with two cinch cables.

Specify under “Type of amplifier“ whether the analogue amplifier is a stereo or surround amplifier.

If it is a surround amplifier, also specify whether or not the TV speakers are to be used as centre loudspeakers. Connect the centre output of the amplifier to the centre output of the TV using a cinch cable, if necessary.

Note: do not use the centre loudspeaker connection on the amplifier; instead use the pre-amplifier centre output.

If you want to listen to the sound via the TV loudspeakers temporarily, call the

Sound menu using the button, select “Sound via“ and then “TV“.

When connecting active speakers, select “Active speakers” in the connection wizard under “Audio equipment selection”. The sound for the active speakers is transmitted via the AUDIO OUT L/R connections to the active speakers. Make connections to the active speakers using the cinch cables.

Make the audio settings on the TV set when active speakers are connected. When using an external audio amplifier, make the audio settings on the audio amplifier.
