Explanation of Jacks and Cables
The diagrams below illustrate jacks found on the back of the TV. When connecting cables, be sure
to connect corresponding outputs and inputs (video input into video out, right audio input into
right audio out, etc.).
This section describes the jacks and cables you might use to make connections (cables may
be ordered separately by calling the number on page 66). There are several ways to connect
components to your TV.
Different jacks and cables provide a different level of performance. It’s important to remember
the different degrees of picture quality for comparison. The HDMI/DVI and component jacks
are considered excellent; S-Video is very good; composite jacks are good, while connecting
components to the Antenna or Cable input is fair.
