once installed does this product "cut out / disable" the tv speakers? can the tv sound still be heard by others in the room at a different volume leve

U can set it up that way or if you have a new tv you may need a speaker system separate from the tv

It was awful. I you put on headset and adjust, adjust, adjust, and hold your head very very still, you can almost hear the tv but it cuts in and out. It was a waste of money

yes, you can still hear the tv - that is why i didn't like the product, got this for my grandddaughter at college thinking it would block out speakers so it didn't bother her roommate and it didn't.

Yes, you can still have the TV volume separate, if you use the audio out connections on the back to connect the headphones. Great for use when someone has need for higher volume then rest of viewers.

Yes, you have the option on your TV to "turn off " the speakers....you can also mute the tv...or you can mute the sound bar....I do both in "fiddling" with them to see what the best sound is for what I am watching...I watched Burlesque last night with some great music and singing....I can't imagine a better sound....I am tending to use both tv speakers and soundbar... 4 is better than 2 kind of thinking...

Yes, it is an option "audio to tv".option, which allows audio to be supplemented to TVs (to act as a center channel for example ) or to be used as the only audio output (by disabling the other speakers)

Hi there... I'm not an expert in the subject, but I think you can fix it by going to "System Preferences" and after clicking "Sound" choosing HDMI in output, so it goes through the TV and not through the computer's speakers. Hope this helps!!!

No..works fine under the TV....If your TV is hung on the wall you need to get alternative speakers.

Can you still hear the sound through the TV as well as the wireless speakers. I would like to hear the sound from both, and it is unclear whether using the speakers stops the sound coming out of the TV too? I see that when you use the headphone jack, the sound does stop coming out of the TV. But when you use the RCA plug, does that change anything and allow the sound to come from both?

Yes. I recommend using the audio out on the back of the tv vs the side or front of the tv so the person using the headset has volume control as well as the person not using the tv listening headset. Otherwise you will cut off the volume from the tv speakers. Romy Pierce ATS Resources 505.292.0298 877.287.0608

The TV's speakers can not be disabled. We recommend you simply reduce the volume to 0.

They both play.... So normally both the tv and speaker play... If you mute the tv, it is muted and the speaker still works with normal volume. This speaker is great, I put it on outside deck and watch tv (normally muted) thru the glass windows.

Lol, even better!! There are (2) headphone jacks that can be heard by 2 people at same time, leaving all others in silence!!Also, the TV volume can be left at '0' while still heard on tv ears set which helps to be heard at lower volume for others who still want to hear, just not as loud as it would be!

You can turn the sound bar off individually, but you would have to turn the speakers back on for the TV (either raise the volume or turn the speaker setting back to on for the TV).

i don't own this, but am interested. however, to your question, I would guess that if you were able to find any screws, tabs, or any sort of closing mechanisms you could open it up and disable any speaker you see.

These speakers have their own independent volume control. TV speakers can be turned down, or completely silent if so desired without affecting the volume of the earphones.

It's separate from the TV volume, at least with my Sharp Aquos. I was able to add the soundbar on to my Logitech Harmony 880 remote.

I may be wrong, but it seems to me that the audio output is not controlled by the volume setting on the TV. I use the volume on the external receiver/amplifier. I have big speakers, so I set the sound on the TV to Mute and just use the big sound. I should add, I do this for Movies, I do not watch regular TV. It is pretty awesome for movies. I have 4 12" and 4 10" woofers, then mids, tweeters, and horns. So it is quite engulfing. Car races and airplanes have the sound going across the room. Makes one feel like they are in the middle of it.On another note, another person has color setting up on the comments, and I went in and set mine to these values, and wow, what a beautiful picture.

Yes, but it depends on your TV. Most TV's have a way to turn off the TV speakers if you chose to.
