DCT3400 Series User Guide
Connecting HDTV – Audio Only
Connect the stereo audio cable to the
and
connectors on the
AUDIO R
L
cable terminal and the corresponding connectors on the HDTV.
If your equipment supports it, use the
or coaxial
OPTICAL SPDIF
digital SPDIF outputs instead of the
and
outputs. In most
AUDIO R
L
cases, SPDIF offers better audio quality, including support for Dolby 5.1
Surround Sound.
HDMI and IEEE1394 carry video and audio. If you connect the DCT3412
to your HDTV using HDMI or IEEE1394, no additional audio connections
to the TV are necessary.
For information on configuring your DCT3412 settings, see "Optimizing
Your Cable Terminal for High-Definition TV."
