If your equipment supports it, use the OPTICAL S/PDIF output. Otherwise, use the AUDIO
OUT L and R connectors. In most cases, S/PDIF offers better audio quality, including
support for Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound.
HDMI carries video and audio. If you connect your HDTV using HDMI, no additional audio
connections to the TV are necessary.
