Audio Return Channel
The Audio Return Channel (ARC) enables you to play digital audio from a television or other source with HDMI® technology over the stereo system speakers.
HDMI version 1.4 or newer cables support ARC. When planning your stereo installation, check whether your devices and cables support ARC. Most devices that support ARC have an ARC or eARC label on the HDMI connector that supports ARC.
You may need to configure your television or other source to output audio over ARC. This stereo supports ARC (but not eARC), CEC 1.4, and PCM stereo audio. See the manual for your source device for configuration instructions if needed.
NOTE:
There is a limit to the length of the
HDMI cable when using ARC functionality. If your source is greater than 5 m (16 ft.) away from the stereo, confirm with the cable manufacturer that it can support ARC at the length needed.
TIP:
On compatible televisions, you can control the volume of the stereo using the television remote control when using the
ARC source.
