•Even if the stand is turned off (active st andby mode),

the HDMI signal will be sent from the connected

component to the stand using INPUT OPT, INPUT

COAX and HDMI together.

Notes on HDMI connections

• You can enjoy high quality images using an

HDMI cable with an HDMI logo. We

recommend that you use a Sony HDMI cable.

• Check the setup of the connected component if

an image is poor or the sound does not come

out of a component connected via the HDMI

cable.

• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit length,

etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack may be

suppressed by the connected component.

• Sound may be interrupted when the sampling

frequency or the number of channels of audio

output signals from the playback component is

switched.

• When the connected component is not

compatible with copyright protection

technology (HDCP), the image and/or the

sound from the HDMI TV OUT jack may be

distorted or may be not output.

In this case, check the specification of the

connected component.

• We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI

conversion cable.

• When “TV,” “FM,” “AM,” or “DMPORT” is

selected for the input source of the stand, video

signals via the HDMI input jack (SAT/CATV,

DVD, BD) that was selected last time are

output from the HDMI TV OUT jack.
