263. TV Connections

A/V Receiver (Sound System)

Most setups require either a digital audio cable or analog stereo audio cables.

The TV makes all audio available in digital and analog formats:

Analog audio coming into the TV is output in digital stereo format on the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack (TV back panel #2).

Digital incoming audio is available as analog output on the AVR AUDIO OUTPUT, L and R jacks (TV back panel #1).

Usually, only one of the following connections is required:

To connect an analog A/V receiver

Connect left (white) and right (red) audio cables from AVR AUDIO OUTPUT, L and R on the TV back panel #1 to the TV AUDIO INPUT on the A/V receiver.

To connect a digital A/V receiver with Dolby Digital surround sound and PCM audio support: Connect one end of the digital audio cable to DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT on the back of the TV (back panel #2). Connect the other end to the COAXIAL DIGITAL INPUT on the back of the A/V receiver.

Important

A/V Receivers with HDMI Inputs

If your A/V receiver has an HDMI input, use one of the audio connections described here instead of an HDMI connection.

Note:

On rare occasions, an HDMI signal may be copy-restricted and cannot be output from the TV as a digital signal. To hear these copy- protected signals through the A/V receiver, use connections for analog A/V receivers.

Check the A/V receiver’s Owner’s Guide for information concerning use of the digital input and switching between digital sound and analog stereo sound from the TV.

Older Cable Box

Required: One coaxial cable.

Note: This connection is not recommended. The other connections described in this chapter provide better quality audio and video to the TV and allow NetCommand to work with the cable box.

1.Connect the incoming cable to IN on cable box.

2.Connect one coaxial cable from OUT on the cable box to ANT 1/MAIN on the TV back panel.
