• The system is compatible with the Audio Return Channel (ARC) function. If you connect the system to the ARC-
compatible TV’s HDMI jack via an HDMI cable, you do not need to connect the TV to the system with the digital
optical cord (page 42).
• You can see the letters “ARC” beside the TV’s HDMI jack if it is compatible with the ARC function. Even if you
connect an HDMI cable to the jack, if the HDMI input jack is not compatible with the ARC function, you cannot
use the ARC function.
• The ARC function is available only when Control for HDMI is set to on.
• Depending on the satellite tuner, multi-channel sound may not be output. In this case, connect a digital optical cord
in addition to an HDMI cable and set “INPUT MODE” to “OPT” in the AMP menu (page 50).
• Connect a “PlayStation 3,” etc., to any available HDMI jack. All the HDMI jacks on the system function in the same
way.
• The HDMI jack connections have priority when you connect different components to the system using the INPUT
OPT/INPUT COAX and HDMI jacks.
• When connecting a TV that does not have a digital optical audio output jack, connect the TV to the system using
an analog audio cord (not supplied).
• Even if the system is turned off (active standby mode), the HDMI signal will be sent from the connected component
to the TV via the HDMI connection. You can enjoy image and sound from the component on the TV.
Notes on HDMI connections
• Use a High Speed HDMI cable. If you use a Standard HDMI cable, 1080p, Deep Color, or 3D images
may not be displayed properly.
• Sony recommends that you use an HDMI-authorized cable or Sony HDMI cable.
• Check the setup of the connected component if an image is poor or the sound does not come out of a
component connected via the HDMI cable.
• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit length, etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack may be
suppressed by the connected component.
• Sound may be interrupted when the sampling frequency or the number of channels of audio output
signals from the playback component is switched.
• When the connected component is not compatible with copyright protection technology (HDCP), the
image and/or the sound from the HDMI TV OUT jack may be distorted or may not be output.
In this case, check the specification of the connected component.
• We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable.
• When “TV,” “DMPORT,” “SA-CD/CD,” “VIDEO,” “TUNER FM,” or “TUNER AM” is selected
for the input source of the system, video signals via the HDMI input jack (BD, DVD, SAT/CATV)
that was selected last time are output from the HDMI TV OUT jack.
• This system supports Deep Color, “x.v.Color,” and 3D transmission.
• To enjoy 3D images, connect 3D-compatible TV and video components (Blu-ray Disc player, Blu-
ray Disc recorder, “PlayStation 3,” etc.) to the system using High Speed HDMI cables, put on 3D
glasses, and then play back 3D-compatible content.
