ADJUSTING TV CONTROLS
Audio Processor
Audio Processor displays a choice list of available audio modes, which control the way the
sound comes through your speakers. Depending on your speaker setup, any combination
of the following options will appear:
• Mono Plays the sound in mono only. This is a good choice when receiving
broadcasts where distance from the broadcasters makes the stereo signal weak. The
channel banner displays the word Mono when you tune to a program that is
broadcast in mono.
• Stereo Splits the incoming stereo audio signal into left and right channels. Most TV
programs and recorded materials have stereo audio. The channel banner displays the
word Stereo when you tune to a program that is broadcast in stereo.
• Surround Expands the audio listening field wider and deeper to create exceptional
sound quality from the TV’s speakers. This feature uses stereo signals from a TV
broadcast or video input.
Audio Output
Audio Output controls whether the built-in speakers are on or off. Select Speakers Off if
the TV is connected to an audio amplifier and external speakers.
SAP
When turned on, Second Audio Program (SAP) plays the program’s audio in a second
language, if one is available. SAP is also used to broadcast a program’s audio with
descriptions of the video for the visually impaired. SAP is broadcast in mono and is not
available for digital programs.
SBS
When turned on, Sub-Bass System allows you to improve bass performance even when the
sound volume is low.
SBS Level
You can use the slider to control the level of the Sub-Bass System. Sliding the slider left
using the left arrow (
x ) button decreases the SBS level, sliding the slider right using the
right arrow ( •) button increases the SBS level. The SBS level can be changed even if SBS
is Off.
For more information on the variable
audio jacks, see the section “Setup
and Connect ions” under “Back of
the TV ” and “Connecting a Stereo
Amplifier.”
You will find an audio language icon
in the channel banner. When this
icon is highlighted, it indicates that a
Second Audio Program (SAP) is
available for analog programs. If you
select it when highlighted, you will
activate the SAP for the current
channel (all other channels remain
unaffected). If the icon is highlighted
when watching a digital channel or a
DIRECTV channel, more than one
audio language is available. If you
select the icon, you will hear the
language and the name will appear
in the channel banner.
