Audio Connection
The following setup items switch the method of
outputting audio signals when you connect a
component such as an amplifier (receiver) with a
digital input jack.
For connection details, see “Step 4: Connecting
the Audio Cords” on page 16.
Select “Dolby Digital,” “MPEG,” “DTS,” and
“48kHz/96kHz PCM” after setting “Digital Out”
to “On.”
If you connect a component that does not accept
the selected audio signal, a loud noise (or no
sound) will come out from the speakers, and may
affect your ears or cause speaker damage.
1 Select “Audio Connection” in “Audio,” and
press ENTER.
2 Select “Digital Out,” and press ENTER.
3 Select “On,” and press ENTER.

Notes
•“48kHz/96kHz PCM” setting has no effect when audio
signals are output from the LINE 2 OUT (R-AUDIO-
L) jacks. If the sampling frequency is 96kHz, signals
are simply converted to 96kHz analog signals and
output.
• When you use the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL or
OPTICAL) jack to listen to MPEG audio signals and
set “MPEG” to “MPEG” in “Audio” setup, no sound
will come from your speakers if you select one of the
TVS modes.
On Normally select this position.

circuit upon the analogue
circuit is minimal.

connected to an audio component
lacking a built-in Dolby Digital
decoder. The surround effects of
