The TV's internal speakers can be used as a center speaker.

channel output to the Internal Speaker Input on the TV.

Warning: Connect from the audio amplifier's center

Signal Strength
This screen lists any channel EVER added to the TV. The list shows the channel
number, the station name (only when tuned, e.g. NBC), whether the channel is
digital or analog, which tuner is picking up the channel, and current signal
strength of digital channels.
When you move the highlight to the Signal Strength list, the TV attempts to tune
to that channel. You can then adjust your off-air antenna for maximum signal
strength (largest number) for the selected channel. The signal strength for a
digital channel will be shown as “- -” until the signal is strong enough for use,
then numbers will appear. Analog channels will always have the display,
“N/A”, since analog signal strength is not measured.
Only primary channels appear in the list. Digital subchannels, e.g. 8-1, 8-2, do
not appear.
Note: If you have both Antenna and Cable channels, press the
ANT•CAB button to view your Cable channels, or vice-versa.
