Clear instructions - thanks. I believe this is the simple way to re-use existing speakers with the old connectors, but without going to the expense of a fancy amplifier with multiple ports. That would be for a higher budget speaker. But this is great for me, as I have speakers sitting around unused.
I am broke and don't want a soundbar. I have an almost 30 year old stereo I used with my old tv that died. Got a cheap new fire tv. But it won't talk to RCA cables. But I found your video. Aha! I now know I can get this device. I will order it, say a prayer and plug in the toslink cable and RCA cables. If it works, I will be one happy girl only out of $13. Those sound bars are hundreds of dollars and I can't get a job right now. Thank you sir for your knowledge and wisdom here.
Sound bars are super cheap now I bought a vizio one a couple of years ago when they were big and popular for 100 bucks on black Friday I'm sure there even more affordable and you can most likely do payment plans to like layaway or credit buy there really is no excuse nowdays if you really want something you can have it just at a cost of your time and some money
Finally a video that explains analog to digital conversation issues concisely with a resolution. I love my old speakers, they were my dads and sound great. Everyone is so into throwing out perfectly good things for the latest new wow thing Thanks so mush for your insight. I will be watching more of your videos!
Thanks for the tutorial! I have a really old Sony Home theater system and I use Alexa's AUX port and connect the HT to Alexa which makes it kind of a Bluetooth speaker system. 😉
Hallelujah! You are my hero thank you for the simple straightforward video. Also thanks for confirming I'm not totally stupid I actually did most of what you advised already but didn't know about the optical cable 🙏🏾
The optical option didn't work for me but the Auto One worked well. I used the HDMI cable without buying any converter.Still this video was amazing video and instructions. 🎉 it answered my question.also my speakers had a remote. So 🎉. Im using those older version nakamishi tower Speaker
Glad you liked it... And yes, the audio directly using HDMI ARC or Optical is much better. This only gives Stereo audio but surely better than TV inbuilt speakers.

Thanks for sharing this info! But the issue here is the adapter cost more than if I'd buy a brand new 5.1 channel soundbar with speakers and subwoofer. But learning how to do it is a great idea. The price i saw started from $699 to $1k+. Too much for me. :-) Thanks
Hi Thanks for the explanation. Is it possible to have both ARC based sound bar and Toslink based home theatre system play simultaneously from single TV
Hi if you can answer..Thanks to this video I am able to connect my speakers however the the quality of the sound is not as immersive and there is very little base. What could be the reason. I bought the same converter as this.
Hey, glad to hear that you could use your speakers. Unfortunately, that's the disadvantage of digital to analog audio conversion. There are limitations in quality and volume control.
Hi bro thanks for the video..it was great knowledge sharing.. I am clear with the connection from TV to converter, can you advise if i can connect rca cable red and white directly to the Aux port of woofer? Instead of 3.5 mm connection? Also if possible make video on using hdmi port connection to aux port (Red/white)
Hi... Glad it was helpful. You can connect directly red white cable to red white ports of speaker or use a adapter cable for red white to aux... It depends on what your speaker can take input as. If it has rca input, then you can use that only. And HDMI to RCA is not possible as TV can out put sound in HDMI only with ARC and converters won't have Arc. Hope this clears your doubt.
Hi, I did buy this Digital to Analog converter for my OP TV. But now the problem is, I'm unable to control the volume of the TV thru the TV remote. The only way to control volume is, to increase/reduce my home theatre remote. Is it the same for you?
Hey... That's how it is with the optical cable... Control has to be done through speaker system itself. The TV volume low and high can be controlled but fine control has to be done through speaker system only.
@@IAmGizmogeek Thanks, for the reply. But I'm sorry, I didn't get that second part. When I low/high TV volume, nothing happens infact. Do you mean, that's how it would be?

But, in my Oneplus Y series 43inch tv there is no Audio output option and optical mode available in sound settings which resulted the same old audio lag/broken sound output. How to deal with this now? Appreciate your response. TIA.
Hey.. I tested the same with Y series couple of months back and as I experienced that you don't have to change any setting, but increase the speaker volume to maximum (Not TV sound) and the sound will come from both TV and speaker.
@@IAmGizmogeek , I am having a Oneplus Y series 32" TV. It has RCA, HDMI ARC, OPTICAL ports in it. I am trying to connect my Philips Home Theatre system which only supports RCA. I have connected the TV and Audio system using RCA Cable now. But the issue is with Audio Settings on the TV. I can only see these options under Digital Output: 1. Auto 2. Bypass 3. PCM 4. Dolby Digital Plus 5. Dolby Digital None of them are working for me. Also I have selected 'External Audio System' under Speakers
@@saileshsahu95 Damn... I thought you are using the Converter... There is no RCA output in Y series, its RCA input only. You have to follow the same method showed in the video. That's the only way.
Thanks brother. I have a query - I want to connect my my projector has 3.5mm audio jack socket, with my old home theater that as Auxiliary Input. Please let me know how do I do that?
Hi... 3.5mm port and Aux port are same. You can use a cable like this and connect the both amzn.to/3DOLpk1 But if you home theatre has a RCA port (Red/Yellow) then use this amzn.to/3tcMVaP
Hey... Glad you liked it. As far as I can see from the available photos of your receiver, it has 2 pin input ports. So the same method as shown in the video should work as TV also has Optical output.
I need help!!!! I have an old receiver running speakers mounted in my walls. In addition to the red and white cord with the aux port, I have 6 red, white and yellow cords. Can you help???
Using similar equipment (Optical cable and Amplifier) i am able to make connection to my Old Speakers (Creative 2.1 Speakers). But by default Volume is set to very high and not able to control/adjust volume using TV remote. Speaker are working as a separate entity with huge volume. I am using 1+ smart TV(U series). Any help or advise please..
Hi... unfortunately the volume control is the major issue with Optical output. Controlling directly the speaker's volume is the only best solution. Some speakers provide minor variation with TV's volume control and some give zero variation.
Bro I have a question... If i connect external speakers with tv without amplifier/home theatre then should I control volume through TV Remote?? Please reply 🙏
My amp and speakers are working fine , but my surround speakers are not working(no output )can you suggest any solution , or should I change any settings in the tv?
Hi... The output in this method can only be stereo. It cannot output multi channel audio. If your sound system has a mode where it can convert stereo to multi channel, then you can use that.
I also have one plus tv and 3.5 mm port available in tv but still i am not getting sound from soundbar i have connect tv and soundbar both with aux cable
That's Audio Video input port and not 3.5mm port. That's why you cannot get audio output from that port. Follow the procedure I showed in this video, that's the only method.
Hey... If you don't have a Optical or Aux Port, then you won't be able to connect the Amplifier to the TV. One way is to buy a FireStick or Android Stick and then use HDMI Audio Splitter like this to send Video to TV and Audio to Amplifier. amzn.to/3FmovAl
Hey bro.. I know that... The point was here to guide people who don't have a BT option but only Aux connectivity. I already have a soundbar with HDMI ARC 😉
Hi... You cannot as it needs an ARC protocol to give audio output. So only if your TV or Settop box has Optical output for audio, this would be possible.
My tv is also same model is that av in Port useful for soundbar with aux port or any 3.5 mm headphones? My sound bar has co axial port any way to connect it to OnePlus tv u1 55

Hi .. you cannot control the volume as it's analog output now. You have to put the TV volume to max and control from Speaker volume control or Keep Speake vol max and control from TV volume.

Why is the tv playing in cropped format when I try playing a movie through usb .... And the picture scaling is not available on the smart tv side ... Instead it's available on the set top box side

Hi bro I want to connect my old computer speakers (creative inspire 4500) to my new Samsung uhd TV how can I do it As my speakers have 3.5mm Jack as input please help
Hey bro... You can follow the same procedure showed in the video. Use a digital to analog converter I used and then use optical cable and rca to 3.5 cable for ocnnection.
Hey bro, you cannot get output from HDMI earc/arc port to your speaker. Optical output and BT are the only ways for you. Arc needs the sound system also with ARC and no hdmi convertor comes with ARC feature generally. As your Tv has earc, it should have optical too. Check
@@IAmGizmogeek thanks for replying bro.. it does have optical But my tv supports dolby atmos only if i connect it through hdmi earc. So i was checking if there's any convertor (that connects aux and hdmi earc).
@@cneephile Most welcome. As your speaker doesn't support Atmos, there is no point in using HDMI eARC. TV will output only stereo if it doesn't get info form soundbar that it supports Atmos.
@@IAmGizmogeek my speakers are dolby enabled speakers with an aux port. So they do support atmos. The issue here is tv can support atmos only if its connected to the arc port. Can i use arc convertor to connect both speakers and tv? Will it work??
@@cneephile Hey... I think you are confused. There can be no Speaker that can support dolby audio over Single aux cable. If you have multiple aux cables for the speaker, then it can provide dolby audio. And another mis conception you have is that Dolby Audio = Dolby Atmos. Absolutely no. They are entirely different. No device can output atmos through anything except hdmi cable. The bandwidth needed can only be provided by hdmi cable, even optical cannot do that. So just use the method shown in the video by using optical and be happy with stereo output. If you want to fully utilise the TV's output, you have to buy a Atmos enable speaker. There's no shortcut to that.
Hey, speakers will be having 3.5 mm input and not output. And by audio out by RCA on TV do you mean 2 ports? If so, you can buy a RCA to 3.5mm jack connector and use it. There will be a link for it in the description. Hope that helps.
@@IAmGizmogeek thanks a ton! Yeah speakers would have input jack. And my tv has 2 audio RCA outputs in red and white. Shall get the RCA to 3.5 converter. Also my tv’s internal audio has gone kaput and hence I’m finding this solution.. Hope the external speakers does solve this problem..!
@@satishkumarachanta1448 Hi... You have to increase the volume of speakers itself and not from TV as volume control through TV doesn't work. Did you try that?
Hey, In the Sound Output select HDMI ARC< Digital Passthrough and you should be getting Atmos. Also do note that except for Netflix UHD plan and Default media player, no other apps provide Atmos sound output. Hope this clears your doubt.
@@IAmGizmogeek ok thanks. I have a firestick 4k and nvidia shield tv. The Vlc in shield tv can pass through Atmos to receiver but why tv can not and it is a Atmos enable tv. The fs file explorer has a inbuilt media player which I installed in tv. It sometimes passes Atmos sometimes not. Please try this fs file explorer.
@@BIBHUTIBHUSANBHOI The media tunnelling settings of OnePlus TV and Shield TV are slightly different. HDMI devices have some freedom compared to TV OS. Why don't you try the Default media player as till now from all the media players I tried, that one gives the best Sound Output.
@@IAmGizmogeek thanks, I will definitely try inbuilt media player. But i think inbuilt media player can't play network storage file.right? Then I have to attach external HDD to tv
@@BIBHUTIBHUSANBHOI Yea... it doesn't support network drive yet. You can try plex app that supports Atmos as far as I remember but still I can guarantee that once you use Default player, you would love the sound irrespective of it's shortcomings.
Yes... that's the limitation of Optical Audio output. You can keep the TV volume to max and then control the sound from the Speaker's remote/knob itself.
@@balajikannan2398 I just tried and am actually getting Audio from both TV and the External Speaker. There doesn't seem to be a way to only route through External Speaker. Increase the volume only then you will be able to hear from speaker too.

Hi! I bought a Smart TV recently which has Aux 3.5mm option. But i am confused whether to get a DAC if it has better sound quality.
Hi... The DAC doesn't provide better sound, atleast in my experience.
@@IAmGizmogeek thank you
Does it work for creative 4.1 speakers(2006 model) to lg 32 inch 2014 model ?
Any TV with Optical output can work this way. Just need the right convertors for connecting your speaker to optical cable
My tv is oneplus y series n it dosent have any option like audio output what should i do
Hey, thanks for the video. I have done exactly the way you explained. But, in my Oneplus Y series 43inch tv there is no Audio output option and optical mode available in sound settings which resulted the same old audio lag/broken sound output. How to deal with this now? Appreciate your response. TIA.
Hey.. I tested the same with Y series couple of months back and as I experienced that you don't have to change any setting, but increase the speaker volume to maximum (Not TV sound) and the sound will come from both TV and speaker.
I am not even able to setup my 5.1 system via RCA. Not able to find the output settings. Oneplus Y 32" TV
@@saileshsahu95 Did you guys check Settings
@@IAmGizmogeek , I am having a Oneplus Y series 32" TV. It has RCA, HDMI ARC, OPTICAL ports in it. I am trying to connect my Philips Home Theatre system which only supports RCA. I have connected the TV and Audio system using RCA Cable now. But the issue is with Audio Settings on the TV. I can only see these options under Digital Output:
1. Auto
2. Bypass
3. PCM
4. Dolby Digital Plus
5. Dolby Digital
None of them are working for me. Also I have selected 'External Audio System' under Speakers
@@saileshsahu95 Damn... I thought you are using the Converter... There is no RCA output in Y series, its RCA input only. You have to follow the same method showed in the video. That's the only way.

Thanks... Pleasure to have you on board.
Thanks brother. I have a query - I want to connect my my projector has 3.5mm audio jack socket, with my old home theater that as Auxiliary Input. Please let me know how do I do that?
Hi... 3.5mm port and Aux port are same. You can use a cable like this and connect the both

Hello Gizmogeek. Really liked your tutorial. Wondering if you could help me hook up my philips 75pfl5604/f7 tv to my vintage sx-980 pioneer receiver?
Hey... Glad you liked it. As far as I can see from the available photos of your receiver, it has 2 pin input ports. So the same method as shown in the video should work as TV also has Optical output.
I need help!!!! I have an old receiver running speakers mounted in my walls. In addition to the red and white cord with the aux port, I have 6 red, white and yellow cords. Can you help???
kya connector bharr charrrrrrr gharrrrrr ki sound deta hai speaker me jab output nahi ata hai TV se ya kuch play nahi ho raha ho?
Shit man... I have the same tv and speaker... All this time I was using the shitty Bluetooth... really needed a wired connectivity.. Thanks man👍
Most welcome... Glad to be of help. Enjoy. The sound output would be less though as mentioned, so just be prepared for it to keep volume high.
Using similar equipment (Optical cable and Amplifier) i am able to make connection to my Old Speakers (Creative 2.1 Speakers). But by default Volume is set to very high and not able to control/adjust volume using TV remote. Speaker are working as a separate entity with huge volume.
I am using 1+ smart TV(U series). Any help or advise please..
Hi... unfortunately the volume control is the major issue with Optical output. Controlling directly the speaker's volume is the only best solution. Some speakers provide minor variation with TV's volume control and some give zero variation.
@@IAmGizmogeek Thanks Buddy
Bro I have a question...
If i connect external speakers with tv without amplifier/home theatre then should I control volume through TV Remote??
Please reply 🙏
You can control external speakers volume with TV remote only if its through HDMI or BT
@@IAmGizmogeek speakers has 3.5 mm jack and usb cable then should i control??m
Not possible with 3.5mm jack. You can keep the speaker volume to max and then control slightly up and down with TV remote.
My amp and speakers are working fine , but my surround speakers are not working(no output )can you suggest any solution , or should I change any settings in the tv?
Hi... The output in this method can only be stereo. It cannot output multi channel audio. If your sound system has a mode where it can convert stereo to multi channel, then you can use that.
Great info sir,
But I have a question
Tv speaker and external speaker both functional together?
Hey... Technically both will not work together unless the TV has a feature like Symphony in Samsung TVs. So the sound will come from only one device.
My sound bar has coaxial cable, usb, aux inputs and my tv is OnePlus only which has HDMIs and doesn't have direct coaxial output so how can I connect?
All OnePlus TVs have Co Axial/ Optical input.
I also have one plus tv and 3.5 mm port available in tv but still i am not getting sound from soundbar i have connect tv and soundbar both with aux cable
That's Audio Video input port and not 3.5mm port. That's why you cannot get audio output from that port. Follow the procedure I showed in this video, that's the only method.
I have a old 5.1 amplifer but it only have R& W connector ....and my tv only have ARC HDMI port ..(no optical) ....can u help me
Hey... If you don't have a Optical or Aux Port, then you won't be able to connect the Amplifier to the TV. One way is to buy a FireStick or Android Stick and then use HDMI Audio Splitter like this to send Video to TV and Audio to Amplifier.

Hi bro,
My tv has hdmi e arc port and my speakers has aux port. How do i connect them?? Please guide me here.
Hey bro, you cannot get output from HDMI earc/arc port to your speaker. Optical output and BT are the only ways for you. Arc needs the sound system also with ARC and no hdmi convertor comes with ARC feature generally.
As your Tv has earc, it should have optical too. Check
@@IAmGizmogeek thanks for replying bro.. it does have optical But my tv supports dolby atmos only if i connect it through hdmi earc. So i was checking if there's any convertor (that connects aux and hdmi earc).
@@cneephile Most welcome. As your speaker doesn't support Atmos, there is no point in using HDMI eARC. TV will output only stereo if it doesn't get info form soundbar that it supports Atmos.
@@IAmGizmogeek my speakers are dolby enabled speakers with an aux port. So they do support atmos.
The issue here is tv can support atmos only if its connected to the arc port. Can i use arc convertor to connect both speakers and tv? Will it work??
@@cneephile Hey... I think you are confused. There can be no Speaker that can support dolby audio over Single aux cable. If you have multiple aux cables for the speaker, then it can provide dolby audio. And another mis conception you have is that Dolby Audio = Dolby Atmos. Absolutely no. They are entirely different. No device can output atmos through anything except hdmi cable. The bandwidth needed can only be provided by hdmi cable, even optical cannot do that.
So just use the method shown in the video by using optical and be happy with stereo output. If you want to fully utilise the TV's output, you have to buy a Atmos enable speaker. There's no shortcut to that.
My tv has RCA audio output.. how to connect it to speakers with 3.5mm jack output..?
Hey, speakers will be having 3.5 mm input and not output. And by audio out by RCA on TV do you mean 2 ports? If so, you can buy a RCA to 3.5mm jack connector and use it. There will be a link for it in the description. Hope that helps.
@@IAmGizmogeek thanks a ton! Yeah speakers would have input jack. And my tv has 2 audio RCA outputs in red and white. Shall get the RCA to 3.5 converter. Also my tv’s internal audio has gone kaput and hence I’m finding this solution.. Hope the external speakers does solve this problem..!

One plus tv not sending Atmos to Av receiver, what may be the problem. Receiver is Atmos enable
Hey,
In the Sound Output select HDMI ARC< Digital Passthrough and you should be getting Atmos. Also do note that except for Netflix UHD plan and Default media player, no other apps provide Atmos sound output. Hope this clears your doubt.
@@IAmGizmogeek ok thanks. I have a firestick 4k and nvidia shield tv. The Vlc in shield tv can pass through Atmos to receiver but why tv can not and it is a Atmos enable tv. The fs file explorer has a inbuilt media player which I installed in tv. It sometimes passes Atmos sometimes not. Please try this fs file explorer.
@@BIBHUTIBHUSANBHOI The media tunnelling settings of OnePlus TV and Shield TV are slightly different. HDMI devices have some freedom compared to TV OS. Why don't you try the Default media player as till now from all the media players I tried, that one gives the best Sound Output.
@@IAmGizmogeek thanks, I will definitely try inbuilt media player. But i think inbuilt media player can't play network storage file.right? Then I have to attach external HDD to tv
@@BIBHUTIBHUSANBHOI Yea... it doesn't support network drive yet. You can try plex app that supports Atmos as far as I remember but still I can guarantee that once you use Default player, you would love the sound irrespective of it's shortcomings.

Yes... that's the limitation of Optical Audio output. You can keep the TV volume to max and then control the sound from the Speaker's remote/knob itself.
