However, if your installation requires maximum volume and sound quality, you can connect the projector to external speakers or a public address (PA) system. This disables the projector's internal speakers. If you've connected multiple audio and video sources to the projector, the projector will automatically switch the audio along with the video source whenever you choose a different video source. (See "Switching Between Picture Sources" on page 29 or page 35.) To connect the projector to an external sound system, you will need an RCA-to-3.5 mm stereo audio cable, which may be included with your sound system, or may be purchased from an electronics store. Before you start, make sure the projector and speakers or PA system are turned off. 1. Connect the cable's 3.5-mm stereo miniplug to the projector's Audio Out jack. Audio Out jack 2.
