3.2 Connecting to a TV tuner card 1. If you have a traditional PCI TV tuner card on your PC, you may need to connect it to the Xonar D-Kara card to send the tuner card's sound to your PC speakers. 2. Secure the PCI TV tuner card and screw it into the back-panel. 3. Connect the audio output header from the TV tuner card to the Aux-In header of the Xonar D-Kara card. For optimum TV audio quality, Xonar D-Kara uses ADC recording to digitize the signal and loop it back for DAC playback. Select Aux-In as the recording source in the Xonar D-Kara Center's recording mixer and enable the monitoring button to pass this signal to the audio output. Using this setup, you can even turn on sound effects such as Dolby headphone to expand the stereo TV audio to 5.1 channel surround sound in any set of headphones. TV audio on your PC will become even better than on your TV set.  e7404_xonarkara.indd 6 ASUS Xonar D-Kara PCI 5.1 Audio Card 7/4/12 3:33:55 PM
