CONNECTING THE EQUIPMENT  (cont.)

About Setup G: Using component-video cables to connect an HDTV 
(optional home theater shown)

This is the most basic setup for a non-HDMI TV, with only an HDTV and optional home theater.

The set-top has component-video connectors as well as an HDMI. 

Use component-video cables (12) to connect the HDTV to the set-top.

In addition, connect baseband audio cables (3) between the PRIMARY AUDIO OUT jacks on the set-top and the baseband audio in 
jacks on the HDTV.

To enhance the sound, you can connect a home theater receiver, in which case baseband audio cable 3 is not needed.

There is a choice of two S/PDIF outputs: (i) electrical (labeled DIGITAL AUDIO OUT, which is shown connected, by cable 8 in the 
diagram, opposite) and (ii) optical (labeled OPTICAL AUDIO OUT).
