In case anyone was still looking into this question. I received this tv as an xmas gift and it does have 2 coponent hookups in back, 1 svideo in back, and 2 hdmi hookups on the side....

Don't know about the back hookup (which I too would prefer) but maybe someone makes 90 degree angled component cables??

If you are going to us any ports in the back of your tv then no but if you are going to use just the sides the yes ...there is only a one inch gap between the wall and tv... there is no room for straige cables only angles

Thanks, I ordered the cables but now I'm not sure how to hook it up to my 6.1 Sony receiver. All the rear jack labels match but I have one conflict:The Sony DVD has 2 surround back but my receiver has one. I am currently using the receiver to mix the extra info to the rear (5.1) as I don't have any physical back speakers. If I set the DVD player to 5.1 & omit the cable, will I lose any info? I know it sounds confusing but I just want to make sure the player will send the info to the available speakers.

I'm not sure if you're asking like you want to watch your TV thru the surround sound or you want to hook up another component either way if you run it through RCA's and run itthrough the auxiliary it works fine

It's not an HDMI to component converter. If it were, then you would turn an HDMI signal into a Component signal so that you could plug an HDMI only output device into a Component input on your TV. This particular box does the opposite. It will allow you to plug in a Component only output device (such as a Wii Console with the official component cable) into a screen that only has HDMI ports open, such as a monitor. And trust me, if we are looking at the same model, the latter is the case. I own one, I have for around 6 months now and this one definitely only goes one way: Component to HDMI.

I'm not sure about the side, but in back there are two hdmi ports. And as on screen input choices, there is hdmi1 and hdmi2. Still very satisfied with this tv.

No. I just encountered the same issue. 14 inches is the exact depth of my receiver. If I didn't have to plug anything in to the back, it would be fine. With the 2 inches all the cables stick out, my only option is cutting a hole in the back. I was excited to keep the cord mess inside the cabinet behind the receiver. It doesn't look like this is going to be possible.

There are two models made by the same company. The one we purchased has HDMI in and RCA out. The other model is reversed.

This is what we thought was best to do.We put all our components in.Then the wires were run through the existing holes in the back.If we don't like the way some of the wires lined up we are ,going to make our own holes to have the wires run more neatly to a component. I hope this will help you.

Can you please explain this? I have been using a tv from 1995 and use a co-axial cable to hook it up. I am not familiar with HDMI cable, so if this is the only type that plugs into the tv, how can I hook the other end up to my cable box and DVD player? The cable box is newer so may be compatible, but the DVD player is fairly old as well. I don't want to buy a tv that I can't use my DVD player with. Thank you!

I had the same question. The photos on Amazon and Samsung websites do not show the back side so a person can see the inputs. Nor does it list it in the specs. I did find the same model TV locally on display. I turned it around and YES, it does have the ANT (antenna) coax/cable input.

You can look at the pix and see that it has three of the old school connectors on one side. It has an HDMI connection point on the other side. I purchased it so that I could connect a blueray player which only had an HDMI output to a TV that did not have an HDMI input. If you have an older TV or other device, this device will allow you to connect the old style cables to your TV/device on one side and a HDMI cable on the other side. It also comes with a USB cable to plug into the wall or USB port to provide its power. I don't know specifically about a PS4, I don't play games.

hey mike, since this is a cheaper surround sound set it does not have as many inputs in the back to hook everything to surround sound. the quality of the product and the sound are amazing. but since it is cheaper they dont include many outlets in the back as with most lower model items. I was able to plug in my tv into it and get surround sound from my tv as well as play dvd's in surround but once you plug in your tv thats it you have to plug everything else into the tv i believe. I have a nintendo wii and it is not connected to the system which isnt a big deal because then the sound just comes out of the tv and not the surround. its a good overall product and I have not had any problems and had it for over 2 years now. Some of these people in the reviews may have gotten unlucky with a bad batch. But its a good value system looks nice and plays nice. only downfall as with most low models like i said they dont leave that many outputs from the back of the player so only the tv and dvd player have surround and ohh yea in the front there is a an input for an Ipod so i play that on surround as well. behind the box its the standard red yellow white and then in also has to new HDMI cable output. if you have an hd tv this is a must but do not buy the cable in stores like best buy or circuit city who sell a 6ft hdmi cable for 124.99 and 149.99 when you can just google the words "hdmi cable" and many companies will be selling it and they look exactly like and work just as good as if not better and are gold plated. the store just over prices them.

I did not use the RCA connectors..the back of my receiver is mostly set up for my computer system. I just spliced another speaker wire into each speaker output--left and right, input and ground, and plugged the two wires from each side into their corresponding connections on the SW. It works great this way....took longer to strip the existing wires than it did to set up the sub.

C component ( now mostly used if you still have a old video recorder or old gaming consol's to give it beter quality) but the B and the F i think it got to to with the sound and imige cables idk. as for the use of the item component has 5 cables and it will make it so that it fits a samsung TV that can use this signal cable.

LaDonna, There is enough space for your socket for the power cord from your TV. My socket is located under the second cross bar and centered between the two verticle bars. My HDMI runs behind the wall. No wires can be seen when watching the TV. It's nice.

There are no output jacks on the back. Only the speaker jacks are on the back. There is a audio input on the front and a USB input as well. Not particularly happy about the fact there are no RCAs. Not the top of the line but good for a medium-sized room.
