cherry-o asked:
Had it working fine last night using my 4 old speakers. Now that I hooked up my new 5:1 surround system, regular TV doesn’t make sound on its own or through the speakers? What am I doing wrong? I set it up for Video 2 output??
OK, got the TV’s sound working, but only after I turned off everything and turned it all back on. Maybe it had to detect a setting? Anyway, all working now ACCEPT the subwoofer…and I say that because I tried a music CD and it still didn’t seem to have much base even with my ear pressed against the woofer. Any ideas?

if you’re getting the sound from your TV-source, like from a cable box connected directly to the TV, then the only way to get surround sound with a set up like that is if your TV set has audio out jacks. Otherwise, you may be able to connect your cable box directly to your home theater receiver, and then connect the receiver to the TV. you won’t get sound from the TVs speakers, but you should be able to enjoy 5.1 ch surround sound, provided that the program you’re watching was recorded in surround. If it wasn’t, but your receiver has dsp or something like it, it should still be able to approximate something like surround sound- if you know how to avail of this feature.

On my Panasonic 5:1 surround system, there was a special cable that had to be hooked to the back of the Sub-Woofer to the back of the receiver that came with it. That cord is in addition to the power cord that should go to a surge protector. As far as hearing all 5 speakers + the sub woofer while watching TV, hook an audio cable( 2 male connectors on each end, red & white) to right & left ” audio-out” on the cable box, to the right & left audio-in on your receiver. On my TV, I leave the internal speakers turned on, but volume at minimum, so that true surround sound is sent to the receiver.
