Sony kdl-v26xbr1 Operating Guide

Your new LCD TV can receive both analog and digital (HD and SD) 
broadcasting signals from antenna, satellite and cable TV company.

To display clear crisp pictures, you must connect your TV correctly and 
choose the correct display format (see “Using the WIDE Button” on page 
50). It is strongly recommended to connect the cable and antenna inputs 
using a 75-ohm coaxial cable to receive optimum picture quality signal. A 
300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio noise and the like, 
resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead cable, keep 
it as far away as possible from the TV.

The signals that enter your TV and connected devices will need to output in 
the correct format using the suitable connections. Below are different types 
of video connectors available these days. Your TV comes with all types of 
connectors with the exception of the DVI connector but your cable box or 
satellite receiver may be equipped with this type. When connecting your TV, 
use the inputs that are available on your devices that provide the best video 
performance, as to below.
