front sound and rear surround sound.
FRONT SPEAKER INT. / EXT. (switch) Set to INT. if you want to use the

Set to EXT. if you want to use any combination of front external speakers. This
switch does not turn off the TV center speaker.

wireless audio transmitter.
FIX/VARIABLE OUT Use to connect an audio receiver or amplifier (an
auxiliary baseband component) for variably-controlled or fixed level stereo
output. When set to fixed (via the Audio Output choice in the Speakers menu),

white.
