If your surround sound system has an Optical or Coaxial Digital Sound input, the answer is yes . . . . .

There is an aux input on the back of the subwoofer. I think you could plug on there.

You have to connect the out put of this unit to an amplifier or stereo system with an input for CD players or auxiliary input . You cannot hook speakers up directly to this unit.

Depends on the speakers. If your speakers plug into a speaker port on the back of the computer make sure you plug the speaker wire into the green port. Some systems have as many as 6 ports for surround sound but the normal speaker port out is green. If you are using USB speakers you may need a driver for them. You would want to check the website that sells or manufactures the speakers. Good Luck

Yes by selecting menu, then sound. You can opt for internal or external speakers

Brian,I'm sorry no one replied to your question. I only just got this system myself last night. You could not just plug your speakers in, because the system uses a proprietary method of plugging the speaker wires into small jacks on the back very similar to telephone jacks. You could splice the open end of the speaker cables to your existing cables, though! Not an optimal choice, I know, but a choice, nonetheless.Good luck!

Yes, you can plug an audio source into the transmitter via the 3.5mm port but you will only get analog stereo, not surround sound. For surround sound you need to use digital optical.

The way I connected my rear (surround) speakers were to the surround amplifier that I placed in the rear of my room. The instructions are indicated in the manual. If you have any other questions, give Sony a call!

You can just connect a regular aux cable to it.. just use matrix mode so you can get surround sound

No, you need to buy speaker wire and connect it to a receiver. Generally as part of a 5.1 surround sound system.

You can try to connect it to your sound card with compatible ends or connect directly to speakers with speaker wire. I just use the RCA jack for my surround sound system.

Yes you can, as long as you setup this unit as the default sound source....

Yes, but unless you run them through the unit you will not get true surround sound.

No; however, look for same style that has Optical "Out" and RCA "In". That way you can plug the RCA cables from your Bose Surround Sound system into the input side of the device and use the optical cable to move the sound to your TV.

Yes, you can connect alternative speakers to the unit. However, only one pair (two speakers) may be connected.

Yes, the unit has an optical input for surround sound, as well as a standard RCA input like you'd find on most TVs. Most likely, you can hook your box up to either input.

You need a receiver/home theater to hook speakers to for true surround sound. DVD is optional and would run thru your receiver/home theater system.
