A/V Receiver (Sound System) Using
the TV's Audio Output
Most setups require either a digital audio cable or
analog stereo audio cables. To send audio from TV
channels received on ANT 1, ANT 2, or devices con-
nected directly to the TV, you must use one of the con-
nections shown below.
The TV makes all audio available in digital and analog
formats:
•
Analog audio coming into the TV is output in digital
stereo format on the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack.
•
Digital incoming audio is output on the analog
AUDIO OUTPUT L and R jacks.
Usually, only one of the following audio connections is
required.
•
To connect an analog A/V receiver
Connect left (white) and right (red) audio cables
from AVR AUDIO OUTPUT L and R on the TV main
panel to the TV AUDIO INPUT on the A/V receiver.
•
To connect a digital A/V receiver with
Digital surround sound and PCM audio support:
Connect one end of the digital audio cable to
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT on the back of the TV.
Connect the other end to the COAXIAL DIGITAL
INPUT on the back of the A/V receiver.

Note:
•
On rare occasions, an HDMI signal may be copy-
restricted and cannot be output from the TV as a
digital signal. To hear these copy-protected signals
through the A/V receiver, use the connection for an
analog A/V receiver.
•
Check the A/V receiver's Owner's Guide for infor-
mation concerning use of the digital input and
switching between digital sound and analog stereo
sound from the TV.

A/V Receiver with HDMI Output
Required: One HDMI-to-HDMI cable
This option allows you to view content from devices
connected to an A/V receiver. The A/V receiver can
send audio and video to the TV over a single HDMI
cable. You can use an HDMI connection as described
here in addition to an audio connection from the TV's
audio output.
You may be able to use the TV's remote control (with
slide switch set to TV) to operate connected CEC-
enabled HDMI devices. Experiment with your equip-
ment to determine which functions are available to the
TV's remote control. See Appendix E, page 80.
This setup allows you to use NetCommand-controlled
audio and video switching over the HDMI cable. See
"A/V Receiver Control: Automatic Audio and Video
Switching via HDMI" on page 63.
