Connecting your Home Theater Speakers and TV
By configuring the X4 transmitter as illustrated below, you can listen to the Xbox or TV with the X4 headphones, and you can also hear the Xbox game on your home theater speakers without disconnecting the X4 transmitter.
The X4 transmitter’s analog inputs connected to the TV will automatically shut off whenever the Xbox is active. When the Xbox is turned off, the analog inputs will automatically turn on so you can listen to TV shows with the X4 headphones without having to disconnect cables.
Connecting the X4 transmitter digital output to your home theater system will pass the Xbox game audio from the transmitter’s digital input to the home theater AV receiver digital input, so you can hear the game on both the X4 headphones and your surround sound speakers at the same time. When you want to hear the game only on the X4 headphones, just turn down the volume or mute your AV receiver to shut off the speakers.
