Connecting a Stereo Amplifier
1. Use RCA cables to connect either the FIXED or VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUT from the
monitor to an A/V receiver.
• FIXED provides fixed-level audio output from the monitor. This audio output is
ideal for connecting to an A/V receiver that has its own volume control.
• VARIABLE provides variable-level audio output. Volume levels are controlled by
the volume controls on the monitor and monitor remote control.
2. Use speaker wire to connect the monitor to external speakers.
• The EXT/INT switch beside the jacks let you turn speakers on or off. EXT sends
audio to external and internal speakers. INT sends audio only to the monitor’s
internal speakers.
3. You may prefer to turn off the TV’s internal speakers. Select Audio from the main
menu and then select Speakers.
Important: Do not use the amplifier’s PHONO inputs. Consult the amplifier’s owner’s
manual for the manufacturer’s recommended hookup.
The FIXED/VARIABLE OUT
jacks on the back panel
provide a fixed or variable
audio signal. When
connected to “variable”,
they are ideal for use with
an audio amplifier that
does not have its own
remote volume control.
When connected to
“fixed,” the output
volume stays the same no
matter how the volume
changes on
the TV.
