Watching video programmes

When you watch TV or video programmes, we recommend you play audio portion through the amplifier instead of your TV’s speaker. This lets you take advantage of the amplifier’s surround sound effects, like Dolby Surround, and lets you use the amplifier’s remote to control the audio.

Turn off the speakers on your TV before you start so you can enjoy the surround sound from your amplifier.

To watch TV programmes, turn on both the TV and the amplifier and press the TV/LD button on the amplifier.

To watch videos or laser discs, do the following:

1Press a function button to select the component (for example, VIDEO 1).

2Turn on the TV and set the TV’s video input to match your video component.

3Turn on the component (VCR or LD player), and start playback.

Using the remote

The remote lets you operate the amplifier and the connected Sony components that can be controlled with the remote commander.
