The S-Video connector splits the video signal into

 

 

two signals, black-and-white and color. If you are

 

 

using the S-Video connector, you also need to

 

 

connect the audio cables. To locate the S-Video

 

 

connector, see "Left View" on page 6.

Best

Component (YPbPr) cable / AV1 IN

The component connectors split the video signal

connectors, you also need to connect the audio

 

 

cables. To locate the component connectors, see

 

 

"Bottom View" on page 7.

Excellent HDMI cable / HDMI IN

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)

 

assures that the best video signal is always sent

 

from source (HDTV signal, DVD player) to the

video and multi-channel audio data to be sent to

 

the display device through a single cable. To

 

locate the connector, see "Bottom View" on
