TX-8470 Connecting the TV

By connecting a TV to this unit, you can show the video from AV devices connected to this unit on the TV and also play the sound from the TV through this unit.

If the TV supports the ARC (Audio Return Channel) function(*), use only the HDMI cable to connect with the TV. Use the ARC-compatible HDMI IN jack of the TV for connection.

If the TV does not support the ARC (Audio Return Channel) function(*), connect an HDMI cable and digital optical cable. If the TV does not have a DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT jack, you can use an analog audio cable to connect with the AUDIO IN TV/TAPE jack.
     • If you use a cable set-top box, etc. connected to the input jack of this unit to  watch TV (without                 using a TV’s built-in tuner), connection with a digital optical cable or analog audio cable is not                   required.

      • When not using the ARC function, press the SETUP button on the remote controller, then set "2.                 Control" - "Audio Return Channel" ( →p80) to "Off".

         (*)The ARC function transmit the audio signals of the TV via an HDMI cable, and plays the audio of              the TV on this unit. To check if the TV supports the ARC function, refer to the instruction manual of            the TV, etc.
