Select the default for the Fixed/Variable Output:

Variable Output, Speakers On

Variable Output, Speakers Off

Fixed Output, Speakers Off

Use Variable Output if volume will be controlled by the TV. Use Fixed Output when connecting to an audio receiver or amplifier with its own remote control for volume control.

Is an external subwoofer connected to the Subwoofer Output?

No

Yes

"Yes" sends low-freq. audio to SUB OUT jack and hi-freq. to the TV speakers. "No" sends full-range audio to TV speakers.

Press 5 or 6 to point to an option, then press OK to select it. Press 3to return to the menu.

Fixed/Variable Out Displays a choice list that lets you turn the TV’s front internal speakers on or off and set the Fixed/Variable audio output to a fixed or variable volume output level. The choices are:

Variable Output, Speakers On Turns the TV’s front speakers On and allows variable output from the TV’s FIXED/VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUT jacks. Use this setting if the TV is not connected to an audio receiver or amplifier and the volume is controlled by the TV.

Variable Output, Speakers Off Turns the TV’s front speakers Off and allows variable output from the TV’s FIXED/VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUT jacks. Use this setting if the TV is connected to an audio receiver or amplifier and the volume is controlled by the TV.

Fixed Output, Speakers Off Turns the TV’s front speakers Off and provides fixed output from the TV’s FIXED/VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUT jack to a receiver or amplifier. With the Fixed Output, the TV’s volume control, graphic equalizer, and mute are disabled. This output is ideal when connecting to an audio receiver or amplifier that has its own remote control for controlling the volume.

Is an external subwoofer connected to the Subwoofer Output? This option only appears when Variable Output, Speakers On is selected. Select Yes if you want the low frequency audio sent from the SUBWOOFER Out jack to the connected external subwoofer and high frequency audio sent to the TV’s speakers; select No to send full-range audio to the TV’s speakers. For the Speakers Off option, the SUBWOOFER Out jack is always enabled.

Auto Select

PCM

Choosing Auto Select will send a Dolby Digital signal (when available) out of the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT on the back of the TV. If Dolby Digital is not available then a PCM signal is sent out of the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT.

Choosing PCM will always send a PCM signal out of the

DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT.

Press 5 or 6 to point to an option, then press OK to select it. Press 3to return to the menu.

Digital Audio Out Allows you to receive Dolby Digital surround sound if transmitted and you’ve connected a six-channel receiver to the TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack with a digital optical cable. Choose the correct setting in the Digital Audio Out menu:

Auto Select Your TV automatically chooses between Dolby Digital and PCM based on the audio signal it is receiving. This is the best selection if you have a decoder with Dolby Digital and PCM that was manufactured in the last several years.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) The TV sends all signals through the Digital Audio Output in PCM.

Because an HDMI output carries the audio signal on the same

3 DVI Audio Input cable as the video, no setup is needed. However, if you connect a DVI output to the TV's HDMI input, you need to connect the separate DVI audio to one of the TV's audio inputs and select that input in this screen. The TV will use that audio input for sound when it displays a DVI signal.

Press 5 or 6 to point to an option, then press OK to select it. Press 3to return to the menu.

DVI Audio Input Allows you to select the audio input you’re using if you’ve connected an HDMI/DVI cable adapter to the DVI input. Select from the inputs listed. Go to page 16 for more information.
