If MTS is now obsolete, how is stereo TV sound (not to mention subcarrier audio) reproduced? All digital flat-screen TVs, after all, have stereo sound systems, with the capability to connect the set's audio to an external sound system, usually by means of the headphone jack; simply run a cable from that jack to the system's auxiliary inputs. I have my own 32" Insignia flat screen TV hooked up to my 50-wpc Aiwa bookshelf stereo system this way; it works great, except I have to run the TV's volume level up fairly high to get enough volume to hear it well.
