Coaxial cables use "F" connectors. • Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded according to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio. The red audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white audio cable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at the rear panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color coded in the same manner as the cables. • S-video cables provide better picture performance than standard video cables. S-video cables can only be used with S-video compatible components. • Component video cables provide better picture performance than S-video cables. Component video cables can only be used with component video compatible components. • Digital audio coaxial cable is for use with digital audio equipment that has digital audio output (see page 13.)
