Audio Component Hookups - Sony SA-VA10 Operating Instructions Manual

STEP 3 Connecting your TV
If the audio and video output terminals on your TV
and VCR are already connected, and your TV has
stereo AUDIO OUT jacks, you can start enjoying
surround sound simply by connecting the speaker
system to your TV as shown below.
Important
• Set the volume on your TV to MIN (minimum).
• If your TV has an ON/OFF switch for its internal speaker,
set it to OFF and enjoy the sound from this speaker
system.

If you use AUDIO OUT jacks marked VARIABLE
After making the connection as shown above, turn up the
volume on the TV. Use this speaker system's volume control
for regular volume adjustment. Turning down the volume
on the TV reduces the AUDIO OUT signal level and may
cause a loss in sound quality and/or the auto-power off
function (see page 11) to function.
For the best possible sound (or if your TV only has a
monaural AUDIO OUT jack, or no AUDIO OUT jacks)
Connect the speaker system directly to your VCR or cable
box.
The following connections suppress noise from the TV and
let you enjoy high quality sound.
1 Connect your VCR or cable box to the 1 IN jacks on the left
front speaker.
2 Connect your TV to the TO TV jacks on the left front
speaker.

Audio Component Hookups

Since this speaker system incorporates its own internal
amplifier and preamplifier, you can also connect an
audio component, such as a CD player.
