Connection Method #2:
All sources into your TV, with TOSLINK optical audio output from the TV
set to SoloCinema XTR.
In this method, connect your sources (Blu-Ray player, cable TV, etc.) into your TV set.
Connect a Toslink optical cable from the optical audio output of your TV into your
SoloCinema XTR. In this scenario, the TV does all the switching between sources, and
the SoloCinema is always set to INPUT #4.
However, most TV’s are incapable of passing a Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel audio
signal through an optical audio output connection. They can only pass 2 channel stereo
through Toslink. The surround processing circuitry designed into the SoloCinema XTR
will simulate a surround experience, but will not be as effective as when processing a
true 5.1 digital surround signal. This method is convenient, as most functions (including
source switching) can be done through one remote control, such as a cable box or TV
remote. But you won’t get the best system sound quality, or be able to use all of the
features of the SoloCinema XTR.
