Sound Bar - HDMI - [TV + Sound Bar]

    • The terminal locations will differ depending on your Sound Bar system. Refer to the operating instructions for more information. Manuals, Specifications and Warranty information for your Sony product is available online.
    • Depending on the model, it may be necessary to switch the Sound Bar settings to TV after connecting. For details on how to operate your Sound Bar system, refer to its operating instructions.
    • If the Sound Bar comes with a Subwoofer, avoid leaving items on top of the Subwoofer. Since the Subwoofer produce vibrations, any items placed on top of it may fall.
    • If your TV and Sound Bar have HDMI input terminals that support the Audio Return Channel (ARC) feature, those terminals will be labeled ARC.

    If HDMI terminals on your TV and Sound Bar have the ARC label

    If connecting to the latest BRAVIA models or any other TV equipped with HDMI terminals that support ARC, use an HDMI cable (sold separately) to connect the HDMI IN (ARC) terminal on the TV to the TV OUT (ARC) terminal on the Sound Bar.
