Home theater configuration Your TV has several features that make it an ideal TV for a home theater. But you might not notice them because they remain in the background until you decide to use them. Turning off the TV speakers for home theater use You can turn off the TV's built-in speakers if desired by changing the setting under Settings > Audio > Speakers and change the setting. However, if you use an HDMI ARC or HDMI eARC connection with CEC enabled, the TV automatically mutes its internal speakers when it sends sound to an external device. It also mutes all sound when you use the headphone jack on the TV, private listening through the Roku Enhanced remote or the Roku mobile app. Setting up a digital audio connection To take advantage of your TV's advanced audio capabilities, connect it to an external amplifier, receiver, or soundbar by using either of these two digital audio connections: • HDMI ARC or HDMI eARC - The HDMI® Audio Return Channel (ARC) or on select TVs only, the HDMI® Enhanced ARC (eARC) connector enables the TV to output digital audio on one of its HDMI® connectors. The connected amplifier then can function simultaneously as an input source to the TV, if needed, without the need to use additional cables. To use the ARC or eARC capability, you must connect an HDMI® cable from your amplifier's HDMI® ARC or eARC connector to the HDMI ARC or HDMI eARC connector on the TV. You also must do the following: • Be sure your HDMI® cable is HDMI® certified. • Enable HDMI ARC under Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC), as explained in Enable HDMI® ARC. 146
