Connections are made at the signal input section
on the rear electronics panel of the soundbar. Your
soundbar features three wired audio inputs:
• 1 x Digital Optical inputs
• 1 x Digital Coaxial input
• 1 x Left/Right Analog (3.5mm) input
When connecting your system, there are any
variety of configurations that will work, and these
methods will vary based on user preference.
Some users will choose to route all sources (such
as DVD player, cable box, game console, media
streamer, etc.) to their television via a digital (optical or
coaxial) connection and use the television to switch
between audio/video sources. The advantage of
this connection method is that only one audio cable
(either a digital optical or digital coaxial cable)
needs to connect between the television and the
soundbar—and changing the input on your television
will change the audio signal being sent to the
soundbar (without having to change the input setting
on the soundbar itself). Please note: most televisions
are not capable of passing multi-channel encoded
audio signals and will down-mix these signals to

a 2-channel stereo mix before sending them to the
television's digital output.
Most users will want to run cables directly from
the source to the soundbar while simultaneously
running HDMI from each source to the TV for the
video signal. This has the advantage of allowing
the soundbar to receive multi-channel encoded
material. However, some newer source devices
turn off their optical/coaxial outputs when their
HDMI output is used.
Depending on your number of sources, the TV may be
used for switching some sources while audio output
from the primary source devices may be directly con-
nected to the soundbar for multi-channel sound.
A few important points to remember when connecting
your soundbar:
• Digital optical and digital coaxial connections
will provide the highest audio fidelity when
connecting to the soundbar.
• If your soundbar is not producing sound or
surround sound from your Blu-ray player, DVD
player, or other multi-channel audio capable
