What is Audio Return Channel (ARC)?
In order for the unit to play audio from a TV, the TV must usually be connected to the
unit via an audio cable as well as an HDMI cable. If, however, the TV supports Audio
Return Channel (ARC), TV audio signals can be input to the unit via the HDMI cable
that outputs video signals from the unit to the TV.
