How would you connect Xbox 360, PS3 and regular tv to get surround sound?

the easiest way, i think, would be to connect everything to your TV and run a single audio out to your surround sound system. I personnally use an optical out from my tv to my home theater set up as my TV has far more connections than my receiver.

I had the same problem at first. You need to use the remote and adjust the dbs level for all speakers and set your bass and treble tones for your liking... If your dvd player or gaming system has a digital out via optical or coax use it! 35 sounds like 50 now you also get true surround. You may need to set your dvd player to 5.1 digital as well. I have my xbox 360 and hd driver hooked into the sony w/ a optical cable, and my dish network installed w/ rca cables. (your sony booklet shows you how to adjust all your levels w/ the remote)

You need to connect your TV and the Speakers to a Receiver so you can have the Surround Sound effects.

I do not have a ps3, however, Ps3 do not have a direct audio output for USB, then you will need to buy an adapter from USB to the HDMI output if you want to enjoy the 7.1 surround

There's a Harmony PS3 adapter for about $30 that converts your IR signal from Harmony remotes and converts them to the PS3 signal. Much cheaper than the Harmony Hub remotes.

I would check the back of the TV or the sides, for any HDMI slots.If it has HDMI slots, you can connect your XBOX 360 E using an HDMI cable.If your TV does not have any HDMI slots, this bundle actually includes a 'regular, non HDMI' cable. Neither PS3s or Xbox360s come with HDMI cables included. :)

You cannot use this for that purpose; this is an "HDMI splitter", which was built to take one HDMI source and output that to a maximum of 4 HDTV's (like in a sports bar). Because what you want is surround sound from all three devices (and without knowing the type of receiver you have) your options are: - If your Receiver has only one or two HDMI inputs - you will need to add a "HDMI Switch", to accommodate all three devices. - If your Receiver has no HDMI inputs - it is better to get a new Receiver with atleast 3 HDMI inputs. - If your Receiver has three or more HDMI inputs - you are fine, just connect your devices to the Receiver. I hope this helps....

Buy a optical cable and hook it up from the tv to surround sound. The cable is 4.00 on amazon.

The way you have your devices set up depends on your TV and if it's capable of splitting the HDMI audio from the PS3 through the TV to the home theater receiver via optical audio. You may have to check your TV operation manual for that... One sure way to get your Home Theater Receiver to output 5.1 sound is to connect an optical audio cable from your PS3 to the receiver. Connect an HDMI cable from your PS3 to your TV for HD output. In your PS3 settings, you will have to make sure your video option output is set to HDMI, while your audio option output is set to optical. It should automatically detect the 5.1 sound channel. If not, you can go ahead and enable DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1. This should get your 5.1 sound system working from your PS3.

I used an audio receiver with capable surround sound. Connected tv with digital audio cable. Bought a powered sub-woofer. Great sound. So happy with price vs performance.

You probably can, but why not get Sony's "PS3 Component AV Cable"? It's $16.28. http://www.amazon.com/PS3-Component-AV-Cable-Playstation-3/dp/B000MIXFWA

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

You would have to purchase a sound bar or similar product and connect them using the digital audio out on the back of the TV using a fiber optic cord. The Bose Cinemate series 2 would be a good example. I have the Bose solo. It sounds just as good and it only 3 or 400 bucks.

I have both my TV and Xbox one hooked up to it using HDMI for surround sound. For the price of this receiver it sounds really good.

Yes, you can. How you do it depends on the particular version of XBox you have. For some versions, you can connect the XBox to the digital optical converter, and connect the Bose system using an RCA to mini plug adapter.
