Connecting a digital audio system
This connection allows you to use external speakers with an
external audio amplifier to adjust the sound level.
You will need:
one pair of standard audio cables
To control the audio:
Turn on the TV and the stereo amplifier.
Turn off the TV’s built-in speakers (see “Turning off the built-in
speakers” on page 86).
Note:
To hear sound when using an external audio amplifier,
the volume of both the TV and the amplifier must be set to a
reasonable listening level.

Connecting an analog audio system
The TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal outputs a Dolby*
Digital
or 2-channel down-mixed PCM (pulse-code
modulation) signal for use with an external Dolby Digital
decoder or other external audio system with optical audio input.
You will need:
one optical audio cable (Use an optical audio cable that has
the larger “TOSlink” connector and not the smaller “mini-
optical” connector)
To control the audio:
Turn on the TV and the digital audio device.
Press MENU on the TV’s remote control and open the AUDIO
menu.
Highlight Audio Setup and press ENTER.
In the Optical Output Format field, select either Dolby Digital
or PCM, depending on your
device (see “Selecting the
optical audio output format”
on page 86).

Note:
• Some audio systems may not be compatible with Dolby Digital bitstream
signals. Older audio systems that are not compatible with standard
optical out signals may not work properly, creating a high noise level that
may damage speakers or headphones. THIS DAMAGE IS NOT
COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.
• The DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal outputs signals only when receiving
digital broadcasts with the TV in single-window mode.
• The DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal may not output some digital audio
sources because of copy restrictions.
