Analog: Use the supplied stereo audio cable to connect the soundbar’s
Aux (analog) input to your TV’s stereo audio output. If your TV has two
sets of audio output jacks, use the set that has a fixed (not variable)
output level. This will let you turn your TV’s speakers all the way off
while the TV still supplies a constant audio signal to the soundbar.
Digital: If your disc player, cable tuner or satellite tuner has an optical
digital output, you can use the supplied optical digital audio cable to
connect it to the soundbar’s Optical (digital) input.
NOTE: If your disc player, cable tuner or satellite tuner does not have an
optical digital output, you can connect its analog audio output to your
TV. The TV will send its audio signal to the soundbar through the analog
connection described above.
Subwoofer: If you are using an optional powered subwoofer with your
soundbar, use a mono audio cable (not supplied) to connect it to the
soundbar’s Subwoofer connector. Consult your subwoofer’s owner’s
manual for instructions about connections and adjustments.
