How to Change Sony TV Audio Output?

To change the audio output on your Sony TV, you'll navigate through the settings menu. Here's a detailed guide:

Steps to Adjust Audio Output

1. Press the HOME button on your Sony TV remote. This will take you to the main menu screen.

2. Select [Settings]. Use your remote's navigation buttons to find and select the "Settings" option.

3. Choose [Display & Sound]. In the settings menu, look for "Display & Sound" and select it.

4. Select [Audio output]. Within the "Display & Sound" settings, find and enter "Audio output".

5. Adjust [Digital audio out]. You will now see the "Digital audio out" option. This allows you to change how digital audio is outputted.

   • Setting to [PCM]: If your audio system doesn't support Dolby Digital or DTS formats, set [Digital audio out] to [PCM]. This will ensure compatibility. This is especially important when connecting older soundbars or audio receivers that may not support newer audio formats.

Example Scenario

Let's say you have a new soundbar that doesn't seem to be working correctly with your Sony TV. The issue might be the digital audio output setting. By following these steps and setting [Digital audio out] to [PCM], you might resolve the issue. If your soundbar does support Dolby Digital or DTS, it is recommended that you keep it set to the default option, not [PCM].
