Getting started Connecting digital audio devices You can connect audio devices that support digital audio playback, such as an AV receiver for home entertainment use. Audio output on the PS3™ system The supported channels may vary depending on the output connector to be used. PS3™ system output connectors AV MULTI OUT connector DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) connector HDMI OUT connector Channels that can be used for output 2 Ch. 5.1 Ch. 7.1 Ch. Hints When connecting a digital audio device to the system, go to (Settings) (Sound Settings) [Audio Output Settings], and then adjust the settings as necessary for the audio device. Normally, audio cannot be output simultaneously from multiple output connectors. For example, if your PS3™ system is connected to a TV via an HDMI cable and to an audio device via an optical digital cable and [Digital Out (Optical)] is set under [Audio Output Settings], audio will no longer be output from the TV and will only be output from the audio device. The system can output both audio and video through an HDMI cable. If both the TV and the audio device have HDMI connectors, you can output the TV picture to the TV through a connected audio device. If a device is connected to the PS3™ system via an HDMI cable, do not turn off the device while the system is turned on (power indicator is lit solid green), as doing so may cause sound distortion or produce abnormal sounds. Examples when connecting an audio device An HDMI cable or optical digital cable can be used to connect an audio device to the PS3™ system.
