Component Video offers the next best picture quality to HDMI so if your system does not have a HDMI input
we suggest you use the Component Video Connection.
HDMI offers the best picture quality and should be used in preference of any other connection. Use the
supplied HDMI 1.4 Cable for use with the X3. The HDMI can be connected to a AV Amplifier or directly to a TV.
Composite Video offers the most basic picture quality connection and should only be used if your TV does not
have a HDMI or Component Video input. Use RCA analogue audio outputs in the absence of HDMI or Digital
Audio inputs on your TV or Home Theatre system. RCA analogue outputs will downmix all content from mutli-
channel to stereo.
For digital audio connection to your Home Theatre System you can either use the TOSLINK Optical or the Co-
Ax Digital output. The X3 supports both Passthrough and Downmix for both Dolby Digital and DTS signals. If
you want your Home Theatre Amplifier to decode the surround sound Bit Stream you can use either either
output and set the Audio Output to SPDIF Passthrough in the Setup menu.
Rj45 Ethernet Network
The X3 is equipped with Rj45 connector for connection to a wired network.
