We recommend you play audio portion through the
amplifier instead of your TV’s speakers. This lets you
take advantage of the amplifier’s surround sound
effects, like Dolby Surround, and lets you use the
amplifier’s remote to control the audio.
Turn off the speakers on your TV before you start so
you can enjoy the surround sound from your amplifier.
