Connecting headphones
Connect the headphones with a stereo mini-
jack (3.5 mm diameter) to the headphone
socket at the receiver.
• No sound comes from the TV speakers
when the headphones are connected.
TV output from the OUT terminal
The video/sound signal of a TV channel you
are viewing is always output from the OUT
terminal.
• Changing over a programme number (PR)
also changes over the TV output from the
OUT terminal.
• The component signals input from the
VIDEO-1 (COMPONENT), VIDEO-3
(COMPONENT) or HDMI terminal
cannot be output through the OUT
terminal.
• Teletext programmes cannot be output.
Connecting speakers/amplifier
While referring to the audio equipment
connection diagram, connect the audio
equipment you want to the TV.
You can use external front speakers to listen
to the TV sound instead of the TV speakers.
Before connecting anything:
• Read the manuals provided with the
amplifier and speakers.
• Turn the TV and amplifier off.
• To prevent magnetism from the speakers
adversely effecting the TV screen, use
magnetic-shielded speakers for the front
speakers.
• Note that connecting cables are not
supplied.
• The output from the AUDIO OUT
terminal is not interrupted by headphone
connection to the receiver. You cannot cut
the sound from the front speaker even if
you connect a headphone to the receiver.
• Adjust the volume of the external
speakers with the amplifier.
• Connect the subwoofer which carried an
amplifier.
• The subwoofer is interlocked with the TV
volume.
• You cannot connect an amplifier and a
subwoofer at the same time.
Using the TV speaker as the
surround centre speaker
The TV speaker can be used as the centre
speaker when listening to Dolby Surround
sound.
Connect the AV amp centre speaker output
terminal and the TV CENTER CHANNEL
INPUT terminal.
When using the TV speaker as the surround
centre speaker, set the SOUND menu
“SPEAKER” setting to “CENTER” (see
page 35).
