HDMI cable
Using a high qualityHDMIcable*, connect one end to the HDMI
port labeled "eARC" or "ARC" on yourTV. Connect the other
end to the HDMI OUT TV port on your AVR.
What is ARC and eARC?
Audio Return Channel or "ARC" sends audio back to the AVR
using the same HDMIcable that sends video from your AVR
to your TV. This allows your AVR to process the sound from
your TV's built-in tuner and apps. TVs with an Enhanced Audio
Return Channel or "eARC" port provide additional support for
high bitrate multichannel audio (DolbyAtmos, DolbyTrueHD,
DTS-HD and DTS:X). Please refer to your TV owner'smanual for
details abouteARC support for your particular model.
* For 4K TVs, we recommend using an HDMI cable labeled
"High Speed" and "with Ethernet" .
* For BK TVs, we recommend using an HDMI cable labeled
"Ultra High Speed".
