Yes I did successfully using the cables the speakers come with. You may have to do some adjusting in settings on your TV though.

I suppose you could do that but I have a surround sound system and they are an excellent complement to it. Nice sound and I am very happy with them.

Good speaker cables will connect to your receiver. I find the sound of these Bose 301 speakers outstanding. They fill the room with wonderful sound. I do not know about the computer to receiver hookup. Try the "HELP" of the receiver manufacture.

Only if your Bose amp was originally driving a 4ohm load. Which is unlikely, as many Bose drivers are between 0.5 and 2 ohms.

You need a receiver/amplifier, then wire connection from receiver to the speaker. TV will connect to receiver input.

No, you can not connect these speakers directly to your HDTV, unless your TV has speakers connectors, which I have not seen one thus far. The do not come with any wirings/cords. If you want a 5.1 Surround sound or bigger speakers than your TV, then you will need the following. RCA Wirings to connect the TV sound outputs into a Receiver, which you need to buy [if you do not have one]. Then buy good speaker wires/cords to connect the Receiver connect to these speakers. The samples in the Internet seemed to be missing the Receiver. They only show the TV and the speakers, which is misleading to some who is not familiar to sound system set ups.

Absolutely yes you can, just be aware of the audio level of the tv and the amplifier, if you were to put both to high audio levels and plug in your headphones you could easily blow them out. Gradually find the level that you are comfortable listening to. Also make sure you have a 6.5mm plug or rca to 3.5mm connector that you can use an to connect to the amplifier.

you can hook these speakers up to a non-bose receiver or amp which i've done before. You'll have to do some tinkering with the speaker wires to make it work. These bose speakers require the new connectors whcih you can purchase anywhere on amazon. The other end of the speaker wire would have to be plugged into your receiver or amp with banana connectors or other terminal ending. It's definitely easier if you connect them to a bose subwoofer but it's not a requirement. Hope this helps.

You could line in to your tv with these speakers, you just need a 3.5mm male audio to male RCA (red and white) to make it work.

you would need an amplifier/receiver between the directv receiver and these, these are passive speakers and need power.if you want to connect a directv receiver, you need the bose cinemate, those would connect directly to the directv receiver and work fine.

I am not 100% certain. I believe the Bose speakers have a different back connection and that you will have to purchase Bose brand brackets.

Yes you can. Just make sure you consider cable length and position of the speakers.

You need to see if your TV has an optical or coaxial (rca) audio out. My son uses these speakers and they sound awesome. If you have this output then you're all set

Not without some kind of amplifier. Computer speaker outputs deliver an unamplified signal. These are really good speakers, but not the best choice for what you're doing. Bose does make computer speakers that would be worth checking into. I can't recall the number, but they shouldn't be too hard to find online. Eddie

You would have to purchase a special jack to hook to your Bose system. It does not come with the speaker. I would suggest you call Bose to ask what kind of jack would be needed.
