Connecting components with
HDMI jacks
HDMI is the abbreviated name for High-
Definition Multimedia Interface. It is an
interface which transmits video and audio
signals in digital format.
Sony recommends that you connect
components to the receiver using an HDMI
cable.
With HDMI, you can easily enjoy both high
quality sound and high quality images.
However, it is necessary to connect
the audio output of the TV to the
audio input of the receiver using an
optical digital cord to listen to the
TV multi channel surround sound
broadcasting from the receiver.
By connecting Sony "BRAVIA" Sync
compatible components using HDMI cables,
""BRAVIA" Sync Features" makes
operations simpler (page 93).
Notes
• Be sure to change the factory setting of the HDMI
1–4 input button on the remote so that you can use
the button to control your components. For details,
see "Programming the remote" (page 117).
• You can also rename the HDMI input so that it can
be displayed on the receiver's display. For details,
see "Naming the input (Name Input)" (page 49).
