Your TV probably has audio outputs (depending on it's age). If so, they would plug in to the receiver's auxiliary inputs, then you could listen to your TV through your stereo system.

Richard is correct. I have a Vizio flat screen. It has audio outputs that I have connected to the audio input "AUX" jacks in the back of the Sherwood. You would need the standard RCA type plug ins, very easy to get and hook into. Great for TV shows, sports, or movies to listen through the bigger speakers.

There are RCA inputs on the back of the unit. You would just need a male RCA to male 3.5 mm audio cable.

Hi, As long as your TV has a ( Audio Out ) connection you should be able to connect this sound bar. The Sound bar has a Small ( Audio In ) connector, This type of connector looks like the single poll sized connector used on a lot of computer sound in jacks. If your TV has a RCA type of ( Audio Out ) connections =if it has two connections,( a Red and a White ) audio out jacks like my tv has you can buy an adaptor cable that has the two Red and White RCA plugs on one end that will plug into your TV and the the small single plug jack on the other end that will plug into this sound bar. This is how I set it up with my TV. The sound bar works really good with very good loud and clear sound. It was well worth the money in my opinion. I hope this helps you with your decision.

Yes, just connect cables to the two RCA input jacks located on the back of the unit. Use a cable with a Y from a stereo jack to the audio output of your TV, as for a headphone output. On the unit, press the Source button repeatedly to enter Aux/Line Mode, indicated by a white light. Or use the remote to choose the Aux/Line input.

Obviously your speakers need some kind of amp, internal (active speakers) or an external amp. Could you run this directly into an amp? Probably not because your TV likely outputs at full volume. You'll probably want some kind of preamp or volume control. But check your TV manual, if it does volume in the digital domain then you could. When I run my TV through it though, it is at full volume. Mine is TV > DAC > Integrated amp (basically a receiver w/o a radio) > passive speakers. And remember this is 2ch stereo, it won't do DD or DTS, you have to tell your TV to output PCM audio.

Sure AC, no worries. There are bluetooth adapters that you can buy that will allow you to connect your tv to a separate speaker. Just do a Google search for 'bluetooth speaker adapter' for tv. Hope that helps.

what you need to do is get a RCA to headphone jack if your TV have headphone jack. or a optical to audio converter if not the sound will not come out.

I used an RCA (red/white) to 3.5mm (headphone) adaptor. Connect the RCA to the TV's audio out & the 3.5mm to the unit. You can even add an extension between the adaptor & the base unit, I you'd like to position it farther from the TV. Works great & the speakers have a longer range than I expected them to have.

No, you cannot connect directly to external speakers. The TV has a digital optical audio output which can be connected to devices like soundbars, some Blue-ray players or audio receivers, etc that are equipped with audio optical inputs.

Yes you can, I am assuming that your TV has an optical out input? If so that is the way to go. You will need to buy a optical audio cable as one does not come with it.

you may have to be creative like cut the RCA cable and use those wires to hook it up if the tv has RCA ports. Here let me explain a little better plug in the RCA plug into the TV and cut the other end to put into the speaker leads.

pworam is right. You have to go to input mode on the TV. You will see the listing on the bottom and a picture of speakers. Select that you want the speakers to go to external. Using your digital optical audio to Home Theatre system will work(maybe even an ARC HDMI). Of course you have to set you speaker system to play AUX or Digital in.

I have my system connected the way you have listed (minus the wii) and the tv speakers don't work at all. Any suggestions?

I really don´t know, but I guess that if the TV device has bluetooth it might be posible to connect it wirelessly to the speakers

You will need an amplifier or A/v reciever. Tv output is not sufficient It does not decode the sound so it wont work

No. You will need an amplifier (most commonly receiver). The TV outputs only send out a small signal, not enough current to power speakers.

They have to be hooked up to speaker terminals on an amplifier or receiver. Not sure that your TV has the power or connection to connect directly. I would connect the audio outputs to a receiver or if you are using HDMI to a receiver, just connect them to the receiver.
