How can you connect the surround sound port of led TV to a 5.1 home theatre system?

Connecting the surround sound port of an LED TV to a 5.1 home theatre system typically involves an optical (TOSLINK) or HDMI (with Audio Return Channel, or ARC) connection. Here's how you can connect them using either method:

Using an Optical (TOSLINK) Cable:

1. Optical Cables: Ensure that both your LED TV and home theatre system have an optical audio output port (TOSLINK).

2. Cable Connection: Connect one end of the optical cable to the optical output port on the TV, and the other end to the optical input port on the home theatre system.

3. Input Selection: On your home theatre system, select the optical input as the active audio source.

4. Output Settings: On the TV, go to the audio output settings and select "Optical" or "TOSLINK" as the output device.

Using HDMI (with ARC) Connection:

1. HDMI ARC: Check if both your LED TV and home theatre system have an HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) port.

2. Cable Connection: Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI ARC port on the TV and the other end to the HDMI ARC port on the home theatre system.

3. HDMI Input Selection: On your home theatre system, select the HDMI input that is connected to the TV.

4. ARC Activation: On the TV, go to the HDMI settings and enable the "HDMI ARC" feature.

Once you have made the appropriate connections and selected the correct audio outputs on both devices, your home theatre system should receive the audio signals from the TV and output them through its surround sound speakers.
