Default TV optical headphones

OK So the new LG 32" TV is mounted on the wall.


Set up required a modest brain transplant but fairly normal for a

I understand it has an output which can be used with optically fed
earphones.


Anyone care to explain what bits are needed as the on-line manual is
less than helpful.


As others have said, the optical output is the high-quality connection
to something like a soundbar, or possibly a higher-end adapter such as a
Bluetooth sender. Your TV probably has Bluetooth output anyway.

If you set your Bluetooth headphones to the 'pair' setting, the TV
should pick this up and you'll get an on-screen message to accept this.
Select 'Yes' and you're away. Adjust the volume using the remote.

If you press the 'Settings' button on the remote, it will bring up a
menu on the LHS of the screen. These can be hard to navigate, so if you
select the bottom one ('All Settings'} it will being up another menu on
the RHS that's easier to navigate. Select 'Sounds' and you'll see a full
choice of the outputs are available. Select the one of choice, and press
the 'Settings' button to close the menu. Enjoy!
