Can I play the concerts on my non-TV stereo system?
There are a wide variety of ways to connect to a non-TV stereo system depending on its technology. All require cables for inputs, most commonly an HDMI cable. We recommend you ask for the right cable for your system at a store where cables are sold or search your exact system model specifications before purchasing.
