IMO if you are buying a nice 55" tv or any nice HD tv IMO, you should have a nice HOME THEATER SYSTEM to go with it. I dont even use the built in speakers ever... so that isnt a concern to me.. I cant see watching a 55" 3d tv with built in speakersand for the record, they dont sound good at all..

just got my 5600 today and set up was nice.. can not figure out for the life of me how to get sound out to my receiver.. My older sammy had a audio out RCA connection. all i see with this is digital optical or something like that.. tried the head phone jack with one of the supplied 3-1 cables and no sound..any advise appreciated.

hi, I bought LG 55inch LW5600 system a month ago, I'm very satisfied with video and 3D quality of this system. I also bought BOSE Cinemate II speaker system( it's a 2:1 channel speaker system ). The sound that comes out of Bose is remarkable, but I had problem following vocals and dialog from Bose, it was not clear, I returned Bose System. Is it possible to tweak the audio output of this TV system? Someone mentioned setting the audio output to HD worked for them. The bose was connected via optical output from the TV. Now, I'm shopping for home theater system and a receiver altogether in around 1000$ range. Please suggest what audio speakers and receiver are compatible for this TV?thanksvista_CA hi, I bought LG 55inch LW5600 system a month ago, I'm very satisfied with video and 3D quality of this system.

because of the "thinness" of HDTVs, there is not much room for quality speakers to be built in. You can get the HIGH quality sound of BOSE speakers at a much lower price if you install an ONKYO theater system. I was startled by fluttering papers in front of my woofer when the sound of helicopters flying overhead went through the system.

I just recently purchased a new Pioneer VSX-921-K at a bargain price of $230 to go with the LG 55LW5600 and now have 7.1 sound hooked up. That great picture now has good audio to go with it. The powered subwoofer can really thunder in our great room with its 20 foot high ceiling.

Unless you are into the "image" of your set up, Bose are grossly over-rated and over-priced. There are so many better and less expensive options to consider.

If the speakers on LW5600 suk as well, What audio devices (like Bose speakers) would you recommend to go with this TV ?

Worse sound I have ever heard form a widescreen tv. My old 42 inch Westinghouse LCD was tons better sounding. I use my LG only for surfing the web and web entertainment. I plan on buying some good Logitech 5.1 surround speakers for this set. A dedicated stereo receiver/speakers would be nice but way too expensive and overkill for my small apt.

Hello and thanks for the request. The speakers were too small for my needs however the plugin jacks were standard size. I hope this helps.

Ditto, the only info I would add is these are probably the best little speakers value for money any where. I have also had Martin Logans and Bose (the former being very good and still used but Bose is too much hype with little substance.) my CA' are paired with a pair of Martin logan motion 6 front stereo speakers and a REL 505 subwoofer with an Onkyo AV 7.2. the clarity is simply excellent. PS lots of mounts on Ebay but as the previous suggest wall mounted much better....

Sorry I'm not able to help. My son got the speakers and he's not an expert on The subject.

I had the first pair shipped deliver perfectly. 2nd pair had issues, but LiteAhead and Amazon worked with me to make sure i ended up with good working speakers. The speakers are higher quality than what else is out there. I would order them. LiteAhead was working with Amazon to make sure they are packing them better.

Try CNET reviews and here is a link that provides some of the specs. http://speakerreviews.info/polk-audio-rm85-5-channel-home-theater-system-reviews/ These are really good sounding speakers.

Rafael, I am sorry but i haven't used them very much yet. I bought them for my garage and since we are still in winter I haven't been out in the garage much. From my experience they would be adequate depending on the party. They are middle of the road speakers, not the best and not the worst speaker I have heard. They are a good buy for the money though.

No, these are amazing! I bought a pair B stock for $230 off of Ebay (after $20 Bing cashback), and I love them! I have had them for several weeks now with no issues. The only minor expected problem is a tiny rattle in the left speaker when playing LOW bass, as in below 40 Hz. But it's very slight, and as I said, expected. For $230, I couldn't be happier. Here's the link to the speakers on eBay (sorry it's so long): http://cgi.ebay.com/Audioengine-5-Speakers-White-B-Stock-Free-Shipping_W0QQitemZ260493630912QQcmdZViewItemQQptZSpeakers_Subwoofers?hash=item3ca6a15dc0 The black pairs are all out unfortunately.

For the price you can't really beat these pair of 6.5s from Kenwood (I bought 4 total). The highs are clear and the mids produce good sound. The one speaker is easier to install than buying a component setup. Just make sure your wattage is within range or you could overpower them and cause them to distort.

Mine's ok. I don't use them as my primary speakers though and I don't mind. I'd suggest getting some good portable speakers (possibly bluetooth...).

Hey Slater, I pretty much have the same setup you just described, got the Son STRDG 720 last week and just purchased these speakers today. Which speakers do you think would be a good purchase to convert this system into 7.1? I have two large polk bookshelves at home although they are a bit old, what do you think?

I hadn't yet heard mine, and your question got me curious, so I got mine working (had to go into the monitor's menu and switch the sound input to HDMI first in case anyone else runs into this issue) . They are a nice addition for an office worker who just needs basic sound, but I wouldn't recommend playing music on these, as they don't have the bass, depth or richness of sound needed to enjoy music. I am still using my 10+ year old Altec Lansing computer speakers, and they still sound awesome. I see that you can buy a new set on Amazon with a sub-woofer for about $60 (Altec Lansing VS4621 Octane 7, 2.1 Computer Speaker), and I would definitely recommend a pair like this to compliment this "gorgeous" monitor! I am still SO happy with this monitor, and I hope NEC continues to make it, as I will stick with them for life if so. The picture is awesome, and I LOVE the semi-gloss! Ok....I'll stop about the monitor now, hehe. :-D

The speakers are great. I guess it depends on how big of an area you will be using it in on whether or not you should buy extra speakers! I suggest you but it. set it up and then decide before you spend more money

I have a similar system to yours although all my components are mostly Sony. My primary speakers are Athena 125 watts per speaker, each containing a woofer, subwoofer & tweeter. I have had these Cerwin Vega VE5M speakers for about six months now, and am very pleased with the quality & sound. Although they sound great alone, I use them in conjunction with my Athenas & the increase in sound range is incredible. Although I'd highly recommend the Cerwins alone, with systems like ours, they are designed to increase the sound range, and they do the job! your system will sound twice as good if you add these to your existing speakers (although you might find they out-class your Yamahas!) -Good listening-Will I have a similar system to yours although all my components are mostly Sony.

They're pretty good! I bought mine a couple of months ago and they sound great. the 7.1 surround sound is a little overkill but they make for a fantastic 5.1 surround sound headset, just make sure your computer has enough audio jacks at the back for all the wires!

Hi Connie, I'm glad that my Amazon peers were able to help you with your question. Enjoy the use of the speakers, they're great!
