Connecting a TV
Connect a TV to the unit so that video input to the unit can be output to the TV. You can also enjoy playback of TV audio on the unit.
• Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo printed on it. A cable with a maximum length of 5 m is recommended to prevent degradation of signal quality.
• For playback of 3D and 4K video content, use a high-speed HDMI cable.
Connect the TV to the unit with an HDMI cable (not supplied).
When connecting a TV that supports Audio Return Channel (ARC), activate the HDMI
control function (p. 59).
• Use an ARC-compatible HDMI cable.
Connect the TV to the unit with an HDMI cable (not supplied) and an optical cable.
• TVs not equipped with an optical jack
Audio content from the TV can be input via the AUX2 coaxial digital or AUX1 analog jack. Set “TV INPUT”
in the setup menu to “COAXIAL [AUX2]” or “ANALOG [AUX1]” accordingly (p. 60).

Audio Return Channel (ARC)
ARC enables input and output of audio signals via a single HDMI cable. If the TV supports ARC, audio
signals from the TV can be input to this unit via the same HDMI cable used to output video signals from
this unit to the TV.
