Connecting a Digital Audio System
There are many types of digital audio systems on the market today.
A simplified illustration of an audio system is shown below. For more information, see your
audio system owner’s manual.

If your audio system has an
optical digital audio input,
connect to the “DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT(OPTICAL)” jack
on the TV.
NOTE
• OPTICAL: converts the electric
signal into an optical light
signal, and transmits it through
glass fibers.
See page 82 to set the digital
output format (Dolby Digital or
PCM) appropriate to your
digital audio component.

The “AV OUT (AUDIO L/R)”
terminals cannot be used for
external speakers.
You must hook them up to an
amplifier.
When an audio amplifier is
connected to the “AV OUT
(AUDIO L/R)” terminals:
Decrease the gain (volume)
of the audio amplifier, turn
the TV’s internal mute on and
adjust the volume level with
the volume control of the
amplifier.
NOTE
• If using the HDMI/DVI, PC, or
Component input on the TV, the
audio output signal is available
only when the TV’s Internal Mute
is set to on.
