Operating additional equipment
Connecting other audio ampliers or active
speakers
In the connection wizard, select “HiFi/AV amplier” under “Equipment selec-
tion: audio component”. The connection wizard allows conguration of different
audio ampliers (stereo ampliers, surround ampliers, analogue or digital) with
different sound formats (Dolby Digital, dts, MPEG and Stereo/PCM). Refer to the
operating instructions for the audio amplier to be connected.
Select “Digital“ under “Audio transmission“ for digital audio ampliers. Con-
nect the digital audio output of the TV AUDIO DIGITAL OUT to the digital audio
input of the digital amplier.
Assign the digital audio input to the socket through which the corresponding
picture is transmitted (e.g. AV2 if a DVD player is connected there). Then the
digital sound is passed to the digital audio output of the TV set and fed to the
external audio amplier via this.
Specify which sound formats can be decoded with your digital amplier (Dolby
Digital, MPEG, dts).
Specify under “Type of amplier“ whether the digital amplier is a stereo or
surround amplier.
If it is a surround amplier, specify whether or not the TV loudspeakers are to be
used as centre loudspeakers. Connect the centre output of the amplier to the
centre output of the TV using a cinch cable, if necessary.
Note: do not use the centre loudspeaker connection on the amplier; instead
use the pre-amplier centre output.
Select “Analogue“ for “Sound transmission“ for analogue audio ampliers.
The sound for the analogue amplier is transmitted via the AUDIO OUT L/R con-
nections of the TV to the audio amplier. Connect the amplier with two cinch
cables.
Specify under “Type of amplier“ whether the analogue amplier is a stereo or
surround amplier.
If it is a surround amplier, also specify whether or not the TV speakers are to be
used as centre loudspeakers. Connect the centre output of the amplier to the
centre output of the TV using a cinch cable, if necessary. Note: do not use the
centre loudspeaker connection on the amplier; instead use the pre-amplier
centre output.
If you want to listen to the sound via the TV loudspeakers temporarily, call the
Sound menu using the button, select “Sound via“ and then “TV“.
When connecting active speakers, select “Active speakers” in the connection
wizard under “Audio equipment selection”. The sound for the active speakers
is transmitted via the AUDIO OUT L/R connections to the active speakers. Make
connections to the active speakers using the cinch cables.
Make the audio settings on the TV set when active speakers are connected.
When using an external audio amplier, make the audio settings on the audio
amplier.
