Cant find audio output

[sansin12]

Hi,
I have a Samsung ln40e550f7f TV that I am trying to connect to an audio receiver. However, not able to find any kind of audio output port. There are a couple of HDMI ports but both say HDMI In. Does this model even have an audio output option?
Thanks.

Thanks, but both of them say HDMI In, and when I connect the TV to the receiver through those HDMI ports the sound doesn't go through.

If you are connecting the tv sound to the receiver it has to go through the optical audio connector from the tv out to the receiver optical in,it doesn't work with the hdmi that way.

Thanks, but I dont see any optical port on the TV.

It looks like there are no audio outputs on the TV. You'll need to put an AV Receiver between the HDMI source and the TV. Or open up the TV, disconnect the speakers and run the outputs to a decent pair of external speakers. I've done that on several TVs.

If you are running a separate device such as a cable box or game system you can run the cable box/game system through the receiver hdmi in and run the hdmi out to your tv,you will get sound this way and it's better quality.
