Audio TV Out
`
Off
`
On
This preference determines whether the incoming audio 
signal is output from the HDMI output. You may want to 
turn this preference on if your TV is connected to the 
HDMI output and you want to listen to the audio from a 
connected component through your TV’s speakers. 
Normally, this should be set to “Off”.
Note
• If “On” is selected and the audio can be output from the TV, the
AV receiver will output no sound through its speakers. In this 
case, “TV Speaker” appears on the display by pressing 
DISPLAY.
• When
“
HDMI Control(RIHD)
”
is set to
“
On
”
, this setting is
fixed to
“
Auto
”
.
• With some TVs and input signals, no sound may be output even
when this setting is set to
“
On
”
.
• When “Audio TV Out” or
“
HDMI Control(RIHD)” is set to
“
On
”
and you’re listening through your TV’s speakers
page 17), turning up the AV receiver’s volume control will
make the sound be output from the AV receiver’s front left and 
right speakers. To stop the AV receiver’s speakers producing 
sound, change the settings, change your TV’s settings, or turn 
down the AV receiver’s volume.
• Listening mode cannot be changed when this setting is set to
“On” and the input source is not HDMI.
• If the “Monitor Out” setting is set to “Both(Main)” or
“Both(Sub)” (
➔
page 44) and if your TV connected to a
priority output cannot output the audio, the sound will be heard 
from AV receiver’s speakers.

Audio Return Channel
`
Off
`
Auto:
The audio signal from your TV tuner can be sent to 
the HDMI OUT MAIN of the AV receiver.
The audio return channel (ARC) function allows an ARC 
capable TV to send the audio stream to the HDMI OUT 
MAIN of the AV receiver. To use this function, you must 
select the TV/CD input selector and your TV must be 
ARC capable.
Note
• If you set “Audio Return Channel” to “Auto”, the “Audio
Selector” settings of the TV/CD input selector will be 
automatically switched to “ARC” (
➔
page 55).
• The “Audio Return Channel” setting can be set only when the
“HDMI Control(RIHD)” setting is set to “On”.
• This setting is set to “Auto” automatically when the “HDMI
Control(RIHD)” is set to “On” for the first time.
■
Lip Sync
`
Off
`
On
This function allows the AV receiver to automatically 
correct any delay between the video and the audio, based 
on the data from the connected monitor.
Note
• This function works only if your HDMI-compatible TV supports
HDMI Lip Sync.
• If the “Monitor Out” setting is set to “HDMI Main”,
“Both(Main)” or “Both” (
➔
page 44), the delay will be cor-
rected in accordance with the monitor connected to HDMI OUT 
MAIN. On the other hand, if “HDMI Sub” or “Both(Sub)” is 
selected, the delay will be corrected in accordance with the mon-
itor connected to HDMI OUT SUB.
