You can connect up to four additional speakers to the back
of your TV-two to the

EXTERNAL

speakers terminals and two

more to the

SURROUND

speakers terminals. If you connect a

stereo amplifier or receiver to your TV, you may prefer to

connect the speakers to the amplifier or receiver instead of

the speaker terminals on the TV.

When you connect speakers to the

EXTERNAL

speakers

terminals, be sure to turn on the speakers using the

Speakers:

or the

Ext spkrs: on/off

function in the

AUDIO ADJUST SETUP

menu for the audio mode you have

selected. When you select

Speakers: ext

in the

AUDIO ADJUST

SETUP

menu, the internal speakers are turned off and sound

will then come through the external speakers you
connected to the

EXTERNAL

speakers terminals.

To obtain surround-sound effects from the prologic,
phantom prologic, matrix surround, hall surround, or
stadium surround audio modes, connect two speakers to
the

SURROUND

speakers terminals on the back of the TV and

position them at the rear of your viewing area, elevated to

standing head level. You may wish to connect a stereo
amplifier or receiver to the

AUDIO OUTPUTS SURROUND

jack to

get a volume level of surround sound audio that is higher
than the

SURROUND

speakers terminals will allow.

When you connect speakers to the

SURROUND

speakers

terminals, be sure to turn on the speakers using the

Rear

spkr: on/off

function in the

AUDIO ADJUST SETUP

menu for the

audio mode you have selected. When you select

Rear spkr:

on,

the surround sound will then come through the external

speakers you connected to the

EXTERNAL

speakers terminals.

If you want to connect an amplifier to your TV with its
own set of speakers attached to it, you can turn off the
TV’s speakers using the

Speakers:

or the

spkrs:

function (depending on which menu you are looking

at) in the

AUDIO ADJUST SETUP

menu for the audio mode you

have selected. Setting the

Speakers:

or the

Ext

spkrs: on/off

function to off will turn off the TV’s internal

speakers and any speakers connected to the

EXTERNAL

speakers terminals. Speakers connected to the

SURROUND

speakers terminals will remain on, so you will be able to

create surround-sound effects when using the amplifier.

Caution:

Do not connect external speakers to more

than one audio source at a time. You can
connect a set of speakers to either the TV or
the amplifier but not to both at the same
time. If you connect the same speakers to
both the TV and the amplifier (or to more
than one set of terminals), you will
probably damage your equipment.

Connecting Speakers to Back of Amplifier or Receiver

If you connect an amplifier or receiver to your TV, connect
the speakers to the amplifier/receiver instead of the TV.
Sound from the TV will then come through the
amplifier/receiver. You can also connect additional
surround speakers to the back of the TV, if desired.

The diagram below shows how to connect external
speakers to the speaker terminals on the back of a typical
amplifier/receiver. Check the owner’s manual for your
amplifier/receiver if its speaker terminals look different

than those shown below.

Notes:

After connecting the speaker wire, pull it gently and check that it

is connected securely to its terminals.
Do not allow the wire core to protrude from its terminal or contact other
wires or terminals. If the cores of two wires touch each other, damage to
components could result.

Connect to Terminals

Important Note:

When connecting the speaker wire, make sure you

connect the (+) terminal on the amplifier or receiver to the (+) terminal
on the speaker. One side of the speaker wire is usually marked with a
white stripe to help you connect (+) to (+) and (-) to

If the (+) and

(-) terminals are not matched properly, the speakers will not be “in

phase” causing reduction in low frequencies (bass).
