Arrange the speakers in your TV room to achieve maximum sound quality.
Connecting Speakers to the TV
You can connect up to two additional speakers to the TV: one to the RIGHT terminal, and
one to the LEFT terminal.
1. If necessary, remove the vinyl covering from the ends of the speaker wire and twist
the wire core.
When connecting the
speaker wire, make sure
you connect the positive
(+) terminal on the TV to
the positive (+) terminal
on the speaker. One side
of the speaker wire is
usually marked with a
white stripe to help you
match the terminals
correctly. If the (+) and
(-) terminals are not
matched properly, the
speakers will not be in
phase, causing reduction
in bass frequencies.
Do not allow the wire
core to touch other wires
or terminals. Damage to
components could result
if the cores of two wires
touch.

To turn on or off the TVs internal speakers, press MENU on the remote control and
