Connecting HDTV – Audio Only
Connect the stereo audio cable to the
AUDIO R
and
L
connectors on the
DCT6400 and the corresponding connectors on the HDTV.
If your equipment supports it, use the
OPTICAL SPDIF
or coaxial digital
SPDIF
outputs instead of the
AUDIO R
and
L
outputs. In most cases,
S/PDIF offers better audio quality, including support for Dolby 5.1
Surround Sound.
HDMI and IEEE1394 carry video and audio. If you connect the DCT6400
to your HDTV using HDMI or IEEE1394, no additional audio connections
to the TV are necessary.
For information on configuring your DCT6400 settings, see “Optimizing
Your DCT6400 for High Definition TV.”
