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 (16 ft) is recommended to prevent degradation of signal quality.
• For playback of 3D and 4K video content, use a high-speed HDMI cable.
• This unit supports HDCP version 2.2, a copy protection technology. For playback of 4K video, connect the unit to the HDMI input jack (one compatible with HDCP 2.2) on an HDCP 2.2-compliant TV.
• To play 4K (4:4:4) video content, set “4K MODE” in advanced setup to “MODE 1” (p. 90).
Connect the TV to the unit with an HDMI cable (not supplied).
When connecting a TV that supports Audio Return Channel (ARC), enable the HDMI
control function (p. 80).
• Use an ARC-compatible HDMI cable.
Connect the TV to the unit with an HDMI cable (not supplied) and an optical digital
audio cable.
• If the TV has no optical jack
Connect the audio output jack on the TV to the AUX1 (analog) input jacks or AUX2 (coaxial digital) input
jack on the unit, and set “TV Input” in the setup menu to “Analog [AUX 1]” or “Coaxial [AUX 2]” accordingly
(p. 80). TV audio can be played through the unit by pressing the TV key on the remote control.

What is Audio Return Channel (ARC)?
In order for the unit to play audio from a TV, the TV must usually be connected to the unit via an audio
cable as well as an HDMI cable. If, however, the TV supports Audio Return Channel (ARC), TV audio
signals can be input to the unit via the HDMI cable that outputs video signals from the unit to the TV.
