Optical Audio Signal Compatibility

The Ai81 does not support Dolby Digital Audio or DTS Audio. Locate the audio output 
settings on your source device and ensure Dolby Digital is turned off. The correct audio 
output setting is commonly referred to as PCM or Stereo.

Some TVs also require that audio output be enabled. This setting may be referred to as 
External Speakers. Ensure this is selected as your speaker/audio output.

For instructions on a specific device, please consult the device’s user manual.

*Optical cable not included
