Connect to TV

Connect your SoundBar to a TV. You can listen
to audio from TV programs through your
SoundBar. Use the best quality connection
available on your SoundBar and TV.
Connect to TV through HDMI (ARC)
Your SoundBar supports HDMI with Audio
Return Channel (ARC). If your TV is HDMI ARC
compliant, you can hear the TV audio through
your SoundBar by using a single HDMI cable.

Using a High Speed HDMI cable, connect
the HDMI OUT (ARC)-TO TV connector
on your SoundBar to the HDMI ARC
connector on the TV.
• The HDMI ARC connector on the TV
might be labeled differently. For details,
see the TV user manual.

On your TV, turn on HDMI-CEC
operations. For details, see the TV user
manual.

If your TV is not HDMI ARC compliant, connect
an audio cable to hear the TV audio through your
SoundBar (see 'Connect audio from TV and other
devices' on page 7).

If your TV has a DVI connector, you can use an HDMI/
DVI adapter to connect to TV. However, some of the
