Klipsch CS-500 - Set-Top Box Connection

Disconnect the cable on your cable, satellite or HD set-top box that is
connected to your TV (you need to connect 1 video and 1 audio).
Connect the VIDEO—look at the options available on the set-top box
and choose 2A or 2B.
To maintain best picture quality—if the back of the set-top box has
COMPONENT VIDEO (
Y, P B , P R) OUTPUT jacks, plug corresponding
cables (either a bundled set or three video grade cables) into those
jacks on the set-top box and to the Klispch system’s
SAT/CABLE/HD
INPUT COMPONENT
jacks (Y to Y; PB to PB, PR to PR). To use this
option, you must also connect the corresponding Y, P
B, PR OUTPUT
from the Klipsch controller’s “VIDEO OUTPUT” section to your TV to
ensure that you get a picture. These cables have not been included
with the Klipsch system.
If the set-top box has a VIDEO (yellow)
OUTPUT jack for video, plug
the yellow video cable into that jack and to the Klipsch system’s
SAT/CABLE/HD INPUT COMPOSITE (yellow) jack.
