Connecting an external sound

You can connect an external sound system to the TV by
using the Audio Output connectors for a digital audio
or analog audio signal:
Use an optical audio cable and the Audio Output
Digital (Optical) connector on the rear of the TV to
provide a digital audio signal to an external
sound system, such as a digital receiver or a
surround sound system.
Use an audio cable and the Audio Output Left and
Right connectors on the rear of the TV to provide
an analog audio signal to an external sound
system, such as an analog amplifier or stereo
system.
The input source signal and the Audio menu settings in
the onscreen display determine the type of audio
output. This TV does not support Dolby Digital audio
input over HDMI. When connecting a set-top box, DVD
player, or other device by means of the HDMI
connector, set the device audio output to PCM format.
See “Understanding audio output” on page 32 for
information on the audio output type.

receiver or a surround sound system.
For an analog connection, connect an audio
cable to the Audio Out L and R connectors on
the rear of the TV and to the external sound
system, such as an analog amplifier or stereo
