Enjoying Audio For Digital Broadcasts (Aac) - Sony HT-IV300 Operating Instructions Manual

Enjoying audio for
digital broadcasts (AAC)
AAC is an audio format employed for BS
and territorial digital broadcasts. AAC also
supports 5.1ch surround sound broadcasts.
To listen to AAC audio such as BS digital
broadcasts, connect the unit to a digital-
tuner-equipped device using a optical
digital cable (sold separately).
If the HDMI jack of your TV supports the
ARC (Audio Return Channel) function
(page 28), you can listen to AAC audio
using an HDMI cable.
Settings such as "optical digital audio
output setting" on the digital-tuner-
equipped device such as TV are also
required. Set the digital-tuner-equipped
device so that it can output AAC audio
signals from the digital output jack. For
details, refer to the operating instructions
supplied with your digital-tuner-equipped
device.
Note
You cannot enjoy AAC 5.1ch surround and
multiplex broadcast signal by connecting an
audio cable (analog) (sold separately) using the
connection shown on page 28.
