                  • Use caution when placing the speakers and/or
                    speaker stands attached to the speakers on a specially
                    treated (waxed, oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining

When you make connection A
                  This connection can send both video and audio signals.
Getting Started

                  • Video signals from the HDMI (IN 1/2) jacks are sent to the HDMI (OUT) jack only when the “HDMI1” or
                    “HDMI2” function is selected.
                  • To send an audio signal from the HDMI (IN 1/2) jacks to the HDMI (OUT) jack, you may need to change the audio
                    output setting. For details, see [Audio Output] in [Audio Settings] (page 47).

                  When you make connection B, C
                  Connect the system so that video signals from the system and other component are sent to the TV, and
                  audio signals from the component are sent to the system.

                  • If you make connection B, C, set [Control for HDMI] in [HDMI Settings] of [System Settings] to [Off] (page 49).
                  • You can enjoy component sound by selecting the “AUDIO” function for connection B.

                  function is established by radio waves, the
                  wireless signal may be susceptible to
                  interception. To protect wireless
                  communication, this system supports various
                  security functions. Be sure to correctly
