I have checked out 3 other videos's on soundbars and yours is the FIRST one that shows not only how to connect a soundbar but showed all other options. Thanks for getting what people need and doing such a great job!
I have two speaker boxes with two wires coming out of each, which are bare wires at the ends. Is there any way to wire then to an amp so I can connect them to my Sony Bravia TV? Thanks
I have NO computer skills at all A friend came and hooked up a TV screen to my computer for me but the sound was horrible all the way up So I watched your video and actually understood it (I'm 65 and computers are not my forte) I figured out that I had to switch to my old speakers system which for me was a Realtek High Definition Audio. Thank you so much for the informative video.
Great video...I've been trying to find how to connect my tv to my new Yamaha stagepas 1k, but I haven't found any videos about it...I ll follow your TOSLINK tip. Hopefully it'll work, but I ll have to use and adapter for the 1k
Clearly explained about the various speaker connections👍 I am now clear with RCA connection. do you recommend any mini amplifier? Looks like I need to get one.
Hey Ram. czcams.com/video/_5NsxWIG2G0/video.html this video goes in depth with a mini amp. And here is a link to the one I use amzn.to/31abjLM it’s not very very powerful/loud but gets the job done for me.best of luck and enjoy your new sound!
Well I say this is the best video on "how to hook up your stereo multiple ways " for dummies 😀 No really great video, I'm watching you on my phone that's hooked up threw an older surround system AND streaming it to the TV threw chrome cast! How do ya like them apples!? I still have yet to hear it correctly 🤣 😂 I need help with this please 🙏
This was very helpful...I have the cable box as the receiver/amplifier with 2 speakers going like you showed..is it safe to get a splitter and add 2 more speakers?
Complete newbie to all this stuff here, and trying to catch up quickly... Perhaps a dumb question, but is there a way to connect detachable bookshelf type speakers from a mini hi-fi system to play as additional to the main tv speaker system rather than totally replacing the source sound from the tv? Or is there some other type of speaker/soundbar device that complements rather than replaces the initial tv speaker source? (Apologies if this sounds ridiculous) BTW your video was great and received an immediate sub.
Thanks Norm! It can be done on certain TVs. First and foremost Make sure your TV has one of those audio our options. Then it’s just a matter of whether or not your TV gives you the option of putting audio simultaneously as you mentioned through the TV and external speakers. You’ll have to look in the audio settings and hope to find the option there. If not some TVs will just do it by default.
Hi if your tv dont have audio out also output you have only input and hdmi 1 and 2 and 1 usb in your tv what analog converter you will use thank you.because i want to connect my tv to speaker.
Hello , my tv does not have audio out , when i want to sing karaoke , my speakers work well with the karaoke player, and the sound comes out from my speaker. But when i just want to watch tv , the sound just come from my tv.. I want it to come from my speakers .. How do i do it?
Thorough video, well done! Question: Presently, I have my TV connected to my Active speakers AUX to PRE-AMP (via RCA), PRE-AMP to speakers (RCA to RCA). Was thinking of switching it up to TV OPTICAL to PRE-AMP (via DAC, optical to RCA), PRE-AMP to speakers (RCA to RCA). Do you think there will be any noticeable sound difference starting from OPTICAL instead of AUX??? Many thanks in advance!
Thank you for the explanation is very good One question my system is very old it's bose "life style 12 and my tv smart Samsung only 2 HDMI in (rca) 1 optical can I used a converter? Help
I have two Bluetooth speakers both with a single AUX in, would it be possible to connect the two of them into the TV via the optical out in the rear of the TV, so with like a splitter dual AUX to optical, it would I be better off attempting to go through the TV's L/mono-audio R ports, (i am guessing they are out ports as there is no visual indication in the rear signage), any help would be appreciated thanks.... and great video
Hey Lars, you know that’s a great idea about the splitter. I know that’s what I would try first! But let’s not forget you’ll need a digital to analog converter amzn.to/3cSMNWt for this!
My tv dont have aux but there is a optical My speaker dont have optical but w/ aux in and out is it posible to connect using optical fiber cord to toslink audio cable ? Hoping for ur response Thank you for the awesome videos

Great video! I would like to try to one more option but not sure if it's advisable. And that is to split my RCA component cables from my Satellite cable box. Meaning send Video (yellow) to TV and RCA(red/white) to 3.5 AUX speakers. Would that work?
I have a question? Example I Have Pc Speakers With Usb(Power Source) and 3.5mm Headphones Jack Here the scenario: My Old TV have Audio Problem and I want to use my Pc Speakers As a External But My Old TV have only RCA Output (Yellow,White,Red) so I try buying Adapter Which is Male RCA (White and Red) to Female 3.5mm Headphones Jack... So Here my Question? Will the Speaker Work or Not and I'm Hoping It could Work. Great Video Btw it's so educational you earn my sub
Hey Protagonist thanks for the sub! Here’s the thing about what you’re telling me your tv has, red white and yellow exist in many TVs but there are two directions they can go and usually if you only have one of those sets, red yellow white, the direction ID usually for sending the signals in so you can play other devices into your tv. If you have another set, it could be ANOTHER in but will hopefully say OUT instead. If it did, you’re good to go!
Hey so I got question… I have older surround sound speakers with bass speaker (no longer have reciver)..These speakers have bare wire speaker cable ports + - .. so my question is can I connect them to my tv using a RCA to speaker wire adapter . I work tie the speakers together snd then splice them to an rca cable and plug the rca cable into the tv .. think that would work ? But my other question would be how would I run 2 rca for “stero” sound and not mono? Hopefully explained it somewhat right.. lmk if you have any ideas
I have the rca cable to aux and the rca goes to my tv and the aux goes to my speaker which is Bluetooth and it only has an aux because my tv doesn’t accept Bluetooth so I can’t use that. But when I connect the rca into my tv and the aux part to my Bluetooth speaker, it doesn’t work. If I unplug the rca and hold it to my skin I hear the electric currents from my body so I know the cord works, is there something I’m missing?
If I go with the TV to Amp to Speaker method, will I be able to control the volume via the TV’s remote when set to external? I’m referring to a mini amp with no remote sold on Amazon.
great question. for true surround, as you said, your tv must have a port to send out 5 audio channels. the ports for this are coaxial, optical, hdmi arc. if your tv doesn't have this, your next best bet would be to play from a device that does and then go from there.
@@SimpleCafeE yes..the tv has all of that..but the z906 doesn't have hdmi,only toss link ..and wondered if i get true 5.1 using the optical.i know hdmi is better but no hdmi on 906
Hey can you help me? I used an rca to aux cable to plug my speakers into my TV's 3.5mm headphones jack, and it works, but there is a LOT of humming. Are my speakers broken?? Please help
Question: I just received a Yamaha soundbar and a SHU sub... I tried hooking it up to my bedroom TV (Sony A9S Oled 48"), The light's are on on the Sub, I have the sub connected to the Soundbar but there's no sound from the sub. The soundbar plays but not the sub. Suggestions? Thank you Joe
Saweet video!! My daughter has a 10 year old 60” Sharp Aqous tTV in her room. I bought her the Sony STRDH190190. She loves it with her Sony tower speakers. She asked me to hook it up to her TV or PlayStation for stereo sound while gaming or watching movies with her friends. The TV doesn’t have the 2 RCA jacks just the video 1 and video 2 which won’t work. The TV & PlayStation has an optical out. Can I use an optical out to analog converter to make this work? Thanks for any help. I only have a week left to go to Best Buy and exchange it for one that will work.
Cool video but I need help so I bought a sound bar and I have a old Samsung tv like yours and mine tv dosent have optical it only has rca I tried plugging my rca Cable to the audio red and white and then put the aux in my soundbar I go on my settings and I see no setting where it says external speaker please respond
Is there only one set of rca plugs on your tv? Most likely that’s for inputting audio and video into your tv. Do you have any other ports? If not, this video shows your only options- czcams.com/video/CsHnqYGldj4/video.html
oh well then i am screwed. it only has HDMI in and Aux in :( i used to connect my sound bar to the cable box but now the one I have I can't connect to it
man, i may i purchase solid sound speakers to use for laptop and for tv as well?? im not going to use laptop and tv simultaneously. when i shut laptop i will use TV for ps5 and therefore speakers to switch to tv and to be working for tv. when i m done i move to laptop and speakers to be activated on laptop.. is that possible? i dont want to buy soundbars and sound speakers seperately :((( if it is possible which cable do i need ? speakers cables should be plugged in laptop and in tv at the sime time.. how wise is this idea?

Is it digital coax that you’re going into? Also, RCA is one channel each. So it only does stereo (2ch). Digital cables such as optical and arc can carry more.
So I recently got a Roku for a Spectre tv that I got for free. Obviously the roku sound and picture comes from the HDMI cable. However, the sound from the tv speakers sounds horrible. I've been trying to get the sound from the Spectre tv to come out of my PMC speakers I have. I have a receiver for the speakers. How can I get the sound from the tv to come out of them? I've plugged in the audio out and in cable (red and white) from the tv into the receiver and have set the correct input but still no sound. Any help would be appreciated!
Hey bro I really need ur help i m connecting my external speaker system through aux to the tv everything is fine but i can control my speaker volume through remote any solutions and i m using ps5 as well
Great Video. I have an Samsung Qled to some powered b&o speakers via hdmi arc to digital to audio converter to rca but every time I power the tv on the sound is unbearably loud regardless of tv settings. Any advice/fix for this?
It sounds like that’s what the volume on the speaker system is being left at. Other than that, look for FIXED and VARIABLE in your external speaker settings on your tv.
@@SimpleCafeE regardless of the sound level when I power the tv off when I power back on it’s fixed at very loud. There’s no variable or fixed output option on the tv sound. So frustrating

Hi I have a sony soundbar A5000 with an S center out port. Sony says it's to connect their compatible tvs with S center in port. If I connect the S center out of soundbar to a center channel speaker will it work? If so what cable and connection should I need?
My Samsung q65 doesn't recognize the HDMI extractor... it doesn't show up in the sound output list like it should when I connect a soundbar via HDMI 3 Arc. So there is no option to switch the sound to HDMI. I check the extractor on my PC HDMI, and it works, but not with the TV. What can be the reason? - I tried each setting in the TV - tried via optical None of connections works 😢 The only thing, this extractor is 1080, but it doesn't say 4K on it (bought on amazon). Should it still work? Thanks!
Hello brother, I have philips home theatre 5.. however player is not working..I have great 5 speakers, how can I connect those speakers only to tv directly, is it possible?
Hey Krishna. If your tv has speaker wire ports then you can. But most likely it doesn’t. So you will need to connect them to an amplifier (stereo). You will need to set up like shown in this video here. czcams.com/video/_5NsxWIG2G0/video.html
I know! Perfect timing 👌 oh but to be more clear with your question, the only way you’ll be able to use all 5 speakers again is if you have another system that can support all 5. In the mean time you can at least use 2 because most stereo amps will be able to support atleast 2.
@@SimpleCafeE Haha, I was about to ask my next question, you were already there with the answer- what a coincidence! Thank you buddy.. I have got this clearly now..you have great quality of advising beyond expectations. Thank you😊
Yea the thing is that your passive speakers still need to be amplified from your amplifier. The power that is installed in the sub is just to power the subwoofer.
The speakers I want to buy have only XLR in. Can I make it work if I get an XLR to RCA cable to plug them into an amplifier with RCA out? The problem is also that I don't find a cable like that on amazon so maybe it doesn't even work.
@@SimpleCafeE In the end I just went with a XLR (from each speaker) to one 3,5mm jack (connecting both speakers) directly into my PC, as I only use them there anyways and also don't need any amplifier or other audio interface this way.
He posted time stamps. That was cool

Ok cool. If that’s what you want make sure you’re converter has optical on the input side and coax on the output side.
So I recently got a Roku for a Spectre tv that I got for free. Obviously the roku sound and picture comes from the HDMI cable. However, the sound from the tv speakers sounds horrible. I've been trying to get the sound from the Spectre tv to come out of my PMC speakers I have. I have a receiver for the speakers. How can I get the sound from the tv to come out of them? I've plugged in the audio out and in cable (red and white) from the tv into the receiver and have set the correct input but still no sound. Any help would be appreciated!
If I hook aux to my TV to my 3 ft speaker do I need to turn my TV speaker off for my 3-ft speaker to work to my TV

Please help
I’m sorry but in that case you’re limited to the options in this video czcams.com/video/CsHnqYGldj4/video.html
Hey bro I really need ur help i m connecting my external speaker system through aux to the tv everything is fine but i can control my speaker volume through remote any solutions and i m using ps5 as well
Not all TVs can do this but look in the audio menus and look for FIXED/VARIABLE.
Great Video. I have an Samsung Qled to some powered b&o speakers via hdmi arc to digital to audio converter to rca but every time I power the tv on the sound is unbearably loud regardless of tv settings. Any advice/fix for this?
It sounds like that’s what the volume on the speaker system is being left at. Other than that, look for FIXED and VARIABLE in your external speaker settings on your tv.
@@SimpleCafeE regardless of the sound level when I power the tv off when I power back on it’s fixed at very loud. There’s no variable or fixed output option on the tv sound. So frustrating
Oh wow that does sound horrible. I can’t think if any solutions either.
That was cool

Hi I have a sony soundbar A5000 with an S center out port. Sony says it's to connect their compatible tvs with S center in port. If I connect the S center out of soundbar to a center channel speaker will it work? If so what cable and connection should I need?
So basically you need a audio converter to connect speakers to your tv ..
If the ports in your sound system don’t match your tv, yes.
My Samsung q65 doesn't recognize the HDMI extractor... it doesn't show up in the sound output list like it should when I connect a soundbar via HDMI 3 Arc. So there is no option to switch the sound to HDMI. I check the extractor on my PC HDMI, and it works, but not with the TV. What can be the reason?
- I tried each setting in the TV
- tried via optical
None of connections works 😢
The only thing, this extractor is 1080, but it doesn't say 4K on it (bought on amazon). Should it still work?
Thanks!
Hi how do i connect my TV to amplifier? Thank you
Can you a coaxial cable by itself? Or do you know Rca cable also
yes you can, watch this video: czcams.com/video/AbWFPV6k6fI/video.html
i have 2 pre existing back speakers and want to add two computer speakers in front. would it worl
Hi D Young, add them to a home theater ?
Hello brother, I have philips home theatre 5.. however player is not working..I have great 5 speakers, how can I connect those speakers only to tv directly, is it possible?
Hey Krishna. If your tv has speaker wire ports then you can. But most likely it doesn’t. So you will need to connect them to an amplifier (stereo). You will need to set up like shown in this video here. czcams.com/video/_5NsxWIG2G0/video.html
@@SimpleCafeE Wow, that was super quick response, thank you😊
I know! Perfect timing 👌 oh but to be more clear with your question, the only way you’ll be able to use all 5 speakers again is if you have another system that can support all 5. In the mean time you can at least use 2 because most stereo amps will be able to support atleast 2.
@@SimpleCafeE Haha, I was about to ask my next question, you were already there with the answer- what a coincidence! Thank you buddy.. I have got this clearly now..you have great quality of advising beyond expectations. Thank you😊
Thanks! I hope you sub to stay in the loop

My tv doesn't have a setting for me to select external speaker?
Good news! I just made the video for ya, How to Connect Speakers to TV with No Audio Out

Sir I had a aux cable and mini amplifier and its speakers but how to connect that with old CRT monitor model TV?
Your tv must have a input which says Audio OUT. Do you see it?
@@SimpleCafeE yes. My tv had 4 ports they are
Video in and out; Audio in and out
And my tv model is LG RF-20CA30K
Take a look at this video czcams.com/video/_5NsxWIG2G0/video.html
So I connected my speakers to my sub, then from there I went to an aux-rca adapter and plugged it into my rca ports for my tv but it’s not working
Yea the thing is that your passive speakers still need to be amplified from your amplifier. The power that is installed in the sub is just to power the subwoofer.
@@SimpleCafeE the sub also powers the speakers
Why do you put your hand in front of your camera. Are you remote batteries low?
BUT... HOW CAN YOU CONNECT A MINI AMP TO OLD. TV WITH AV CORD??
Hey Akeniro, see if this video helps czcams.com/video/_5NsxWIG2G0/video.html

God thank you
The speakers I want to buy have only XLR in. Can I make it work if I get an XLR to RCA cable to plug them into an amplifier with RCA out? The problem is also that I don't find a cable like that on amazon so maybe it doesn't even work.
Hi, pasi, did you find a solution!?
@@SimpleCafeE In the end I just went with a XLR (from each speaker) to one 3,5mm jack (connecting both speakers) directly into my PC, as I only use them there anyways and also don't need any amplifier or other audio interface this way.
Nice.
