    Getting StartedConnecting the FM wire 
    antenna (aerial)
    Connect the FM wire antenna (aerial) to the 
    75 Ω COAXIAL jack.
     Be sure to fully extend the FM wire antenna (aerial).
     After connecting the FM wire antenna (aerial), keep it 
    as horizontal as possible.
     If you have poor FM reception, use a 75-ohm coaxial 
    cable (not supplied) to connect the control unit to an 
    outdoor FM antenna (aerial) as shown below.
    Bundling the cables
    You can bundle all connecting cables of the 
    stand and other components, using the cable ties 
    (supplied).
    1Connect the components to the stand.
    For details, refer to pages 13 to 17.
    2Insert a cable tie (supplied) into each of 
    the two holes at the rear of the stand 
    until they click.
    3Bundle the cables, and then insert the 
    end of the cable tie through the slit of 
    the cable tie.

    Getting Started
    We recommend that you connect components to 
    the stand using an HDMI cable.
    With HDMI, you can easily enjoy both high 
    quality sound and high quality images.
    However, you cannot enjoy the TV’s sound 
    from the stand only with HDMI connection. It 
    is necessary to connect the audio output of the 
    TV to the audio input of the stand using an 
    optical cable or an audio cord in order listen to the TV’s sound from the stand.
    By connecting Sony “BRAVIA” Sync-
    compatible components using HDMI cables, 
    ““BRAVIA” Sync Features” makes 
    operations simpler (page 31).
    Connect the AC power cord (mains lead) after 
    you have finished connecting all components to 
    the stand.

     Even if the stand is turned off (active standby mode), 
    the HDMI signal will be sent from the connected 
    component to the TV via the HDMI connection. You 
    can enjoy image and sound of the component on the 
    TV.
     The HDMI jack has priority when you connect the 
    component to the stand using INPUT OPT, INPUT 
    COAX and HDMI together.
     The INPUT OPT jack has priority when you connect 
    both the audio output of the TV to the INPUT OPT 
    and INPUT ANALOG jack of the stand.
    Notes on HDMI connections
     You can enjoy high quality images using an 
    HDMI cable with an HDMI logo. We 
    recommend that you use a Sony HDMI cable.
     Check the setup of the connected component if 
    an image is poor or the sound does not come 
    out of a component connected via the HDMI 
    cable.
     Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit length, 
    etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack may be 
    suppressed by the connected component.
     Sound may be interrupted when the sampling 
    frequency or the number of channels of audio 
    output signals from the playback component is 
    switched.
     When the connected component is not 
    compatible with copyright protection 
    technology (HDCP), the image and/or the 
    sound from the HDMI TV OUT jack may be 
    distorted or may be not output.
    In this case, check the specification of the 
    connected component.
     We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI 
    conversion cable.
     When “TV,” “FM,” “AM,” or “DMPORT” is 
    selected for the input source of the stand, video 
    signals via the HDMI input jack (SAT/CATV, 
    DVD, BD) that was selected last time are 
    output from the HDMI TV OUT jack.

    When you connect a DVD player (recorder), 
    satellite tuner, “PlayStation 2,” etc., that has no
    HDMI jacks, connect its video signal jack 
    directly to the TV, and its audio signal jack to the 
    stand using the INPUT OPT jack or INPUT 
    COAX jack.It is not necessary to connect all the cables. 
    Connect the audio cords according to the jacks of 
    your components.
    Connect the AC power cord (mains lead) last.

     Set “CTRL: HDMI” to “OFF” in the AMP menu of 
    the stand when connecting components without 
    HDMI jacks (page 33).
    Even if “CTRL: HDMI” is set to “ON,” you can enjoy 
    a video cassette recorder, etc., that does not have 
    surround channels by connecting its audio and video 
    output jacks directly to the TV instead of the stand.
     The INPUT OPT jack has priority when you connect 
    both the audio output of the TV to the INPUT OPT 
    and INPUT ANALOG jack of the stand.
    Depending on the audio output settings of the 
    connected component, the sound may output in 2 
    channel sound format only. In this case, set the 
    connected component to output the sound in 
    multi channel sound format (PCM, DTS, Dolby 
    Digital). For details on audio output settings, 
    refer to the operating instructions supplied with 
    the connected component.

    You can enjoy sound from the connected 
    component on the stand by connecting the 
    DIGITAL MEDIA PORT adapter.Connect the AC power cord (mains lead) last.
     Do not connect or disconnect the DIGITAL MEDIA 
    PORT adapter while the stand is turned on.
     When you connect the DIGITAL MEDIA PORT 
    adapter, be sure the connector is inserted with the 
    arrow mark facing toward the arrow mark on the 
    DMPORT jack. To detach the DIGITAL MEDIA 
    PORT adapter, press and hold
