TV speakers and the soundbar can work simultaneously?

Typically no, this is not usually how the sound is arranged on most TVs. Most of the time if you use one of the connection methods for an external speaker device, the TV will not also activate the TV speakers. That is a feature / function of the TV though, not this or any other external sound device.

Yes, buttt! The timing might be a little off and could sound simular to an echo effect. My sound bar is hooked up to optical connection. There should be a way to adjust this tv/soundboard timing, butt! I haven't researched this yet

hook two leads from soundbar into cable box not tv or use RCA splitter and use both tv and soundbar speakers

Thanks for your question. Speakers A and B will operate simultaneously. This amplifier will not provide surround sound decoding of movies or TV. This is a fantastic sounding amplifier. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Yamaha dealer.

I don't know for sure, but I don't think so. The sound bar has its own remote. You might check with the Vizio website. Wish I could be of more assistance.

You can, but in order to use sound system with the tv only, you will need a receiver.

Soundbars are supposed to replace your tv's speakers, not used at the same time. The soundbar is generally supposed to represent all 5 speakers on its own and are meant for small rooms where a full system might not be convenient.

You could use any of the inputs. However, I would use the Optical or HDMI input first; because they would give you the best quality sound with a current sound bar. I would use the analog, stereo input as your last option.

Yes you can, it is an auto action if your sound bar is Samsung, and your TV is also. But if not just hook up to your HDMI in on the TV and HDMI out on your sound bar. Or just as easy HDMI 1 or 2, to HDMI 1 or 2 on each device.

Yes buy a receiver with multiple HDMI inputs. That way you can connect all your accessories (cable box, blu-ray player, game consoles, etc) directly to the receiver, which will be connected to the surround speakers.

The soundbar can be used as one speaker or split into two speakers. The wireles subwoofer is another speaker.

The soundbar has multiple inputs....optical, coax and RCA so you should be able to hook up just about anything.

Absolutely, I do! I have mine wired to a small Monitor sub. Make sure you let the soundbar know that you are connecting a sub, there is a setting for it on the menu.

I don't believe so, at least I haven't gotten it to work with my TV. But I have a good sound system for my computer, and since they are both in the same room, I'm fine with it, since all I have for my TV is the stock built-in speakers. This might be a different story if you had a home entertainment system for your TV??

Directly off the soundbar, no - you could attempt to pair another one to the television as a device but I think it will only support one "session / connection" at a time.

You have to adjust both separately. I have found if I turn the sound bar all the way up, then try to adjust it with my tv remote there is a hum in the speaker at lower volumes.

I didn't reply at first because I've been sick and busy with my biz. 'Sound Bar' threw me off too, I see some other replies that fit along with what I assumed you meant. Yes I have a center speaker under the tv. Of course the sizes of your TV and center speaker would be a factor in whether or not it would work. Generally it's a safe bet that most configurations would probably work.

The sound bar is strictly analog, that is, it has no digital (Toslink) connector. If your TV has an analog output for headphones you can connect the sound bar that way, otherwise you have to use a digital-to-analog audio converter.
