We had the exact same problem, and yes, that is exactly how we solved it. Working great!!

Ok, there is another kind of digital cable connection you can use if your tv has that... Otherwise, the unit should come with a rca y connection where you connect a red and white to your tv and the other end is one black rca cable that goes into the back of the unit on the far left side. If you do not have a rca Y connector than try to connect either the red or the white wire only to the back of the unit where it says analog in.. That means the unit only has a mono rca connection on the far left side of the unit where it says analog in.

If your TV has an audio out jack: analog, just hook it up to one of the Aux Ins on the receiver; digital, you need an adaptor I bought one at best buy brand name Dynex Direct part 3 might be 13C07A or maybe DX-SF110. You could probably find one on Amazon. Just be sure to see if the jack is analog or digital.

if its a new TV, then you can hook in with HDMI or USB. if its an older model, you will need a converting system like a dvd player with those inputs or a blueray player. some models come with a A/V jack, so your can go from microphone jack to RCA connectors.

It would depend on the audio output port options of your specific TV. The audio input of the speaker system is a standard AUX cable. If your TV does not have any audio output to match, it would still be possible given the right converter (not included, but not too expensive on amazon).

You can plug either an auxiliary cable or a hdmi cable. Make sure the hdmi cable is rated the same ad you tv (ie 1080i) . There's no such thing as an aux and hdmi cable combo . There totally different hook ups. I love my receiver.

I don't think so. component RCAs are analog and unless you get a converter, the cable won't make the signals digital like your TV HDMI slot needs.

Unfortunately, no. There is no standard RCA-jack "AUX" input, nor are there any "HDMI" jacks.

No you just need an RCA cable that is able to hook up to an auxiliary out/input

It sounds like you need a straight M to F 3.5mm adapter. This is a male 3.5 mm to RCA cables. So unless one part of hardware requires RCA inputs then no this isn't what you need. I hope this helps.

Yes, but you would need an adapter... such as the following. http://www.amazon.com/3-5mm-Stereo-Female-Y-Cable-6-Inch/dp/B000I23TTE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1420000279&sr=8-2&keywords=RCA+to+3.5mm+female

Yes, there's an aux output. I needed an adapter (a cheap $1 thing) to allow the connection to my HDTV.

Sure. Just input the output sound from from your TV via, optical, hdmi, or analog.

With RCA inputs, you would need a "y" into mini male cable. Like this:3.5mm Stereo Male to Dual RCA Male Y-Cable, 6 FT.Hope that helps.

Yeah, anything with a 3.5mm audio jack will work. But considering the length of the longest cable they give you (about 5ish feet), its probably not a grand idea to be that close and listen to the tv, but it is possible.

I don't know. I have not tried it. The TV RCA inputs are standard. However, the 3.5mm male plug & jack with audio Left & Right & video have no standard, so it depends on the manufacturer. If the jack (female) and the plug (male) are not wired the same, it may not work.

Not easily. Like others have said if your TV has an output it will be RCA. You can get a cable to make it work. But your TV may not even have audio out. In fact, most don't.
