Available only when your TV is compatible with the Audio Return Channel function.
A HDMI cable connection
If your TV has an HDMI jack, connect to the TV with an HDMI cable. This will provide better image
quality compared to other types of connections.
When connecting with an HDMI cable, you need to select the type of output signal when performing
the Easy Setup (page 29).
For further HDMI settings, see “[HDMI Settings]” (page 61).
About Audio Return Channel
If your TV is compatible with the Audio Return Channel function, an HDMI cable connection also
sends a digital audio signal from the TV. You do not need to make a separate audio connection for
listening to TV sound. For setting the Audio Return Channel function, see [Audio Return Channel]
(page 61).
B Component video cable connection (for non-European/non-Saudi
Arabian models)
If your TV does not have an HDMI jack, but has component video input jacks, connect to the TV with
a component video cable. Picture quality will be improved compared to using a video cord connection.
When connecting with a component video cable, you need to select the type of output signal in the Easy
Setup (page 29).
C Video cord connection
If your TV does not have an HDMI jack or a component video input jack, make this connection.
D Digital optical cord connection
This connection sends an audio signal to the system from the TV. To listen to TV sound via the system,
perform this connection. With this connection, the system receives a Dolby Digital multiplex broadcast
signal and you can enjoy multiplex broadcast sound.
You can enjoy the TV sound by selecting the “TV” function (page 30).
• If your TV does not have a digital optical output jack, you can connect the unit and your TV with an audio cord for
listening to TV sound via the system. For connection details, see “Connecting the other components” (page 24).
