2. Connect the AVR to the TV

With a high-quality HDMI cable*, connect one end to the HDMI port labeled "ARC" on the TV. Connect the other end to the HDMI OUT TV port of the AVR.

What is ARC?

An Audio Return Channel or "ARC" sends audio back to the AVR through the same HDMI cable that sends video from the AVR to the TV. This process allows the AVR to process the sound from the built-in tuner and TV applications.

* For 4K TV, we recommend using an HDMI cable with the labels "High Speed" and "with Ethernet".
