Provide video and left/right audio output signals
from the input source currently being viewed on
screen, except for HD INPUT-AV 3 or AV 4.
When HD INPUT-AV 3 or AV 4 is used, only
the audio is available through the OUTPUT
audio L/R jacks. The OUTPUT audio is at a
fixed volume level; changing the TV volume
does not affeet them. Adjust the volume at your
external home cinema system.
CENTER CHANNEL AMP INPUT Click-fit
Terminals
Provides speaker-wire input terminals for con­
nection of an external home-cinema surround-
sound system amplifier. For this use, set the
switch to “EXT,” and the TV speakers beeome
the center speakers for the home-cinema sur­
round-sound system.
NOTE: If no audio is heard from the set, cheek
to make sure the Center Channel Amp switch is
in the INT position. This switch should be in the
EXT position only when an external eenter
ehaimel input is connected to the Click-fit
Terminals.
Why So Many Types of Inputs?
As better-quality signals have beeome available, new inputs have been designed into
accessory devices (VCRs, DVD players, cable boxes, ete.) and TVs to carry them. The
other inputs have been left in place to work with the installed base of older equipment.
Here is a summary of the quality of signal offered by the different types of inputs:
Basic: ANTENNA IN 75i2. May provide the only way to connect an antenna and some
older cable boxes and VCRs.
Good: VIDEO (Composite) Input A small step up in quality from the ANTENNA IN
75ii input. Most cable boxes, VCRs, and DVD players have this type of eoimection.
Better: S-VIDEO (Super Video) Input Separates the signal into color and brightness,
improving image quality. Used with DVD players, digital cable boxes, satellite receivers,
and some camcorders.
Best: Y Pb Pr (Component Video) Input Carry potentially the best-quality signals.
The video signal is split into three signals, two color and one brightness. Used primarily
with DVD players.
