Using the TV as a centre speaker (only models with TV centre speaker mode)

Models with a TV centre speaker mode have 中置揚聲器輸入 terminals or S-中置揚聲器輸入 terminals on the back of the TV.

On TVs with S-中置揚聲器輸入 input, you can use the TV as a centre speaker in the following cases.

  • When a sound bar with an S-CENTER OUT output/jack is connected

By using the TV as a centre speaker, conversations sound natural because you can hear them from the screen and its vicinity.

Hint

  • For Acoustic Center Sync supported audio systems with a S-CENTER OUT terminal, refer to the following.

    Note

    • Even when connecting a sound bar with an S-CENTER OUT terminal, it must be connected to the TV with an HDMI cable like a normal sound bar.

  2. Press the (Quick Settings) button on the remote control, change — [Audio output] to [Audio system].

Connecting an AV receiver with a speaker cable

Connect the TV and AV receiver with a speaker cable.

Connect the speaker cable to the connection terminal at the back of the TV
  1. AV receiver
  2. Speaker cable (not supplied)

Use a speaker cable (not supplied) to connect the AV receiver to the 中置揚聲器輸入 terminal of the TV.
When connecting, make sure to twist the ends of the speaker cable and insert them into the connection terminals of the TV and AV receiver.

The 中置揚聲器輸入 terminal varies depending on the model. Refer to the figures below when connecting the speaker cable.

*Strip about 10 mm (13/32 inches) of insulation from the speaker cable at each end.

Note

  • To prevent the wires of the speaker cable from touching each other, make sure not to strip too much of the speaker cable.
  • Connect the speaker cable properly so that the polarities (+/-) between the TV and AV receiver match.
