Hooking Up the SB1 to your TV
You likely have many sources for your audio signal: your TV, your
DVD player or a cable/satellite box. The bar is able to accept audio
from up to three different sources. The simplest approach is to
connect the optical audio output from your TV to the optical input
on the back of the SB1 bar. This connection will provide the highest
quality audio regardless of whether you are watching TV or DVD.
If your TV does not have an optical output, you can use the optical
output from your DVD player or your cable/satellite box to connect
directly to the optical input on the SB1 bar.
