Audio Setup

Turn off the TVÕs built-in speakers in the same AUDIO SETUP menu (above). Also see ÒTurning off the built-in speakersÓ on page 82.

Note:

Some audio systems may not be compatible with Dolby Digital bitstream signals. Older audio systems that are not compatible with standard optical out signals may not work properly, creating a high noise level that may damage speakers or headphones. THIS DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.

The DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack may not output some digital audio sources because of copy restrictions.

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.

Connecting an analog audio system

This connection allows you to use external speakers with an external audio amplifier to adjust the sound level.
