A/V Receiver
Most setups require either a digital audio cable or
analog stereo audio cables. To send audio from TV
channels received on the
ANT
input or devices con-
nected directly to the TV, you must use one of the con-
nections shown below.
The TV makes all incoming audio available as an output:
• Analog incoming audio is available as output in
digital stereo format on the
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
jack. 842 Series. Analog incoming audio is also
available as analog stereo on the
AUDIO/SUR-
ROUND OUTPUT
jacks.
• Digital incoming audio is available as digital audio
on the
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
jack. 842 Series.
Digital incoming audio is also available as analog
output on the
AUDIO/SURROUND OUTPUT
jacks.
See page 10 for tips on using an external sound system.

Note: On rare occasions, an HDMI signal may be
copy-restricted and cannot be output from the
TV as a digital signal. To hear these copy-pro-
tected signals through the A/V receiver, use the
connection for an analog A/V receiver.
• Check the A/V receiver’s Owner’s Guide for
information on use of the digital input and
switching between digital sound and analog
stereo sound from the TV.
A/V Receiver with HDMI Output
Required: One HDMI cable
This option allows you to view and hear content from
devices connected to an A/V receiver. The A/V receiver
can send audio and video to the TV over a single HDMI
cable.
You can add an optional audio connection from the
TV’s audio output. The optional audio connection
allows you to hear, through the A/V receiver, devices
connected to the TV only, e.g., an antenna on the
ANT
input.
See page 10 for tips on using an external sound system.
