nnAbout ARC (Audio Return Channel) function

This function plays TV audio on this unit by sending the TV audio signal to this unit via the HDMI cable. If a TV without the ARC function is connected via HDMI connections, video signals of the playback device connected to this unit are transmitted to the TV, but this unit can not play back the audio from the TV. If you want to enjoy surround audio for TV program, a separate audio cable connection is required.
