Cabling to an HDTV – Audio Only
Connect the stereo audio cable to the
AUDIO R
and
L
connectors on the cable terminal and the
corresponding connectors on the HDTV.
If your equipment supports it, use the
OPTICAL SPDIF
or coaxial digital
SPDIF
outputs instead of
the
AUDIO R
and
L
outputs. In most cases, SPDIF offers better audio quality, including support
for Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound.
HDMI and IEEE1394 carry video and audio. If you connect the DCT3412 to your HDTV using
HDMI or IEEE1394, no additional audio connections to the TV are necessary.
For information on configuring your DCT3412 settings, see “Optimizing Your Cable Terminal
for High Definition TV.”
