DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)
When you connect a Digital Audio System to the
the volume of both the TV and the system.
5.1 CH (channel) audio is available when you connect the TV to an external device supporting 5.1
CH.
When the receiver (or home theater) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV's optical
jack. When the TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the home theater
receiver. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD player / Blu-ray player / cable box
/ STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and you connected it to the TV via HDMI, you will only hear
2 CH audio from the home theater receiver. If you want to hear 5.1 CH audio, connect the digital
audio out jack from your DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an
amplifier or home theater.
