We have a LG Smart TV and want to use our Sony (with wire and plug for jack) headphones. Will this work? The LG TV has no Jack.

As long as you can set your TV audio to PCM output ... Here's the review I wrote (upon returning the item): There's nothing in the listing about needing to set TV to "PCM Output only," and that's only possible in some settings on the TV, not for streaming, which was why I purchased this - to be able to use headphones when watching programs while my wife reads. Then, when it arrived, I saw a sticker on the converter and separate "notice" that both say the converter "will only work with PCM Output." (That's "pulse-code modulation" by the way, a form of sampling.)

I haven't used it with a Sony Smart TV but I have used it with my Roku 2 and my Mini Cooper and it worked with both. I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

There should be a stereo audio jack on the tv for headphones connection. Just use it for the cable to the speaker unit. If it doesn't have a speaker jack then there should be some female rca audio output jacks on the back of the tv. If it doesn't have either of these then the only solution would be to connect wires to the tv speakers and run them to rca female connectors.

I have used wireless headphones and this Sony unit and they connect the same. I have not used it on a Sony theater system but if you have a digital audio output the speakers still work with my flat screen, but this is not necessarily true if you use the headphone jack for the Sony Bluetooth unit. I tried it on two different TV's one would turn on in mute mode but the speakers still worked and the other the speakers would not work if the Sony was in the headphone jack.Good Luck.

Yes. But you have to purchase a stereo RCA(m) to 3.5mm (f)adapter to use with the analog audio output. Larger tvs typically don't include a standard headphone jack.

yes if the tv has a headphone jack available,these are wired headphones not wireless.

I have an LG and was unable to connect this sound bar to my TV and have it function with the cable. It's all in what you have for inputs. You need analog or coaxial inputs, kind of old school, I think. It has no hdmi or other outputs except the traditional red, black and yellow plugs. My system was already using these for my cable and after consulting with their customer service I was told it wouldn't function with my T.V.

The TV has a headphone jack on the back. It's the standard 1/8" "stereo" mini phone jack, so it will accept most modern mini phone plug type headphones. For your application, it ought to work fine. What's annoying, for me, is that the jack is on the back of the TV, so to plug and unplug the phones (which disconnect the speaker when they're plugged in - a normal TV feature) you have to turn the TV around and fumble to find the jack every time. Very annoying! If the patient will be using their headphones all of the time, though, this won't be a problem at all, and might actually make for a "cleaner" installation.

No, as long you have room of your TV for a White and Red plugs which match the one which comes with the headphones you should be okay. I also use the phones to plug into my stereo set and computer using the headphone plugs.

No. It needs an "optical" cable. This is a good thing as an optical cable is superior to regular ones (they say). One came in the box. The bad thing is that whatever you are hooking it up to has to have an optical cable receptacle, which is common for newer TVs etc. For better compatibility I now advise getting an LG sound bar with an LG TV--Samsung with Samsung, etc. I have the LG sound bar with a Samsung TV and not all of the buttons on the LG remote work. Everything important works: on/off, mute, volume.

Yes it will work.... There wont be any sound comming out of your TV now since your using the headphone out. But you dont really care for that anyway.. lol

I'm not sure what an LG phone is,but as long as you can plug a standard 3.5 mm jack into it,it will probably play Just fine.In fact,I just had mine plugged into a cassette player that lost the use of its speaker and it worked out fine.Think of it this way,a 3.5 mm jack is used on headphones.So,if the heaphones work on your phone,so will this speaker.I like mine.

These headphones have a standard Headphone jack (3.5 mm) so as long as your TV has a standard jack size then you're all set. This is the common side that an iPhone or an old Sony Walkman would use.

Unless the LG TV has amplified speaker output you can't. These speakers require amplification and you need either a A/V received or an amplifier for these speakers to work. TVs normally have line-level analog or digital audio outputs that will not drive these speakers.

NO headphones and speakers with LG TV's, just found out the hard way. We had RS120 and you have to go to the back of the TV and unplug the headphones to be able to use the TV speakers. :( Called support and they said customers preferred this). It was an early christmas present so going back or we will have to buy 3 more headsets. ADA issue here.

Yes if your TV has a headphone jack they can plug right up into the headphone jack. That's how I use mine.

The short answer is no. LG has pulled a SONY style trick and will only let you use their product. Kind of shameful.
