video quality because the video is separated
into three parts
Y = Luminence (black & white part of signal)
P
B= Chrominance (color) minus blue

video quality. Even though there is only one
cable, the chrominance and luminance are kept
separate from the main signal.

Understanding the basics of how Input and Output jacks work will assist you in connecting components to your Klipsch system.
Input jacks are connected to peripheral components
Your cable box, satellite box, or HD receiver box would connect to your Klipsch system’s input jacks to bring the signal INTO the Klipsch system so you can control everything (sound and picture)
from the Klipsch system.
Output jacks send the signal OUT from your Klipsch system to the TV (for video) and to the speaker system (for audio)
For instance, in order to see the DVD movie you’re playing in your Klipsch system, you must connect cables to the TV so you can see the picture on the TV screen. Therefore, you connect a
cable to the output jack on the Klipsch system (sending the DVD signal OUT to the TV) and connect the other end of that cable to the matching input jack(s) on the TV.
