The flat panel TV’s digital audio output terminal (optical) can output Dolby Digital signals. Using an optical digital
cable, connect an AV receiver to the digital audio output terminal (optical) on the rear of the flat panel TV. This
connection allows audio such as from digital TV broadcasts to play back in high quality.
If your AV receiver does not have a digital audio input terminal (optical), connect the AUDIO OUT terminals (AUDIO)
on the rear of the flat panel TV to the audio input terminals on the AV receiver. However, this method may result in
audio delay between the speakers and the sound from the AV receiver. To reduce the delay, mute the speakers on
the flat panel TV. Nonetheless, you may still experience some delay between the sound and the picture.
Audio signals synchronized with currently displayed images are output to the AUDIO OUT terminals. However,
audio accompanying the images are output to the SUB WOOFER OUT terminal.
When using the digital audio output terminal (optical), select settings according to your AV Receiver. For more
information, see the operating instructions that came with the AV receiver.
Note: When signals are input from the HDMI terminals, no signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT terminal if they
are copy guarded.

1 ) Access the
