Will these device work & make magic and what proper connection and cables needed since Yamaha soundbar YSP 1100 has no HDMI inputs nor outputs.TV does

You need coaxial audio cable or optical to make proper connection with your soundbar.

What this extractor does is to extract the core 5.1 or 2.0 (switchable via a button) audio signal to whatever device that accepts it via a coax cable. I am not familiar with soundbars but if yours accepts a coax cable and can process digital signals, it will work. Whether or not it will "make magic" is hard to say ...

Honestly, buy a new receiver. You need this, and then you can continue using the speakers you have. Trying to do this any other way is not a good idea, and will end up costing you the same amount of money and continued frustrations on lack of HDMI inputs and outputs.

I have this exact setup and it works fine. My soundbar has optical input, but my headphones are analog, so the second line from the splitter actually goes to an analog converter, which the wireless headphones connect to. Perfect sound in both the soundbar and the headphones.

I use the BEHRINGER U-PHONO UFO202 audio interface (available from amazon for $30) to connect my laptop to the mixer/amp. If your tv is one of the newer versions you should be able to connect your video from your laptop via USB or VGA. Not sure about your soundbar arrangement.

It's all hard wires to this unit. Buy a set of sound bar. It works with the sound bar via optical cable.

I tried multiple splitters and unfortunately none of them worked. I ended up getting a tv that had more than one HDMI inputs and used one optical output to my sound bar.

I think you'll still need an amplifier. Im not familiar with that sound bar but I imagine it will not properly power these speakers.

Does your receiver have an "optical" output? If it does, try hooking that to the Soundbar. Have an HDMI and an Optical hooked up and they both work fine . . . . .

Yes it should work. I had to buy this because my TV only has optical digital audio out and my old sound bar only has analog RCA input. I tried simply using an RCA to SPDIF cable but that didn't work and had to get this box to make it work.

Think of this soundbar as being a replacement for traditional speakers so you'll need an amplifier. If you don't have an amp or your TV doesn't have speaker outputs, you'll want to find a soundbar that has the amp built in and accepts some sort of digital input.

There are only 2 inputs. 1 standard audio L/R jacks and one digital audio. No HDMI. You need to plug everything into your tv and use the tv audio out to the speaker bar. Which really is the best way anyways. And then it does have Bluetooth so anything with Bluetooth will connect as well.

This soundbar is an analogue device. If your TV has a jack for headphones, then the soundbar will work. Some TVs don't have a headphone jack-one of my TVs does, the other doesn't. Interestingly, the "better" of my TVs (bigger screen, more features) doesn't have an analogue output jack (for headphones).

this is an awkwardly worded questions so I will try to answer it in parts. This device connects to any standard 3.5mm audio jack, which the back of your TV should have, as well as be in the back of the source of your sound bar. There is no HDMI cable to connect to this device. My advice, do not replace the HDMI cable from the TV to the sound bar, because you will lose so much audio quality. Instead, what I do is leave the Soundbar system plugged in with HDMI, but turned low/off for my sleeping baby, and I also play the TV sounds through this device connected to my AptX-enabled bluetooth wireless headphones (these are cheap and very simple to use = http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IBCRZ3Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), and play as loud as I want.

We are using them with Dell laptops and Samsung TV;'s and the work great. I don't know why they wouldn't work with your equipment. What ports do you have on your TV's. That may be the only issue, you have to connect the signal device to the TV somehow.

That'll work. What I did since I have multiple things connected to my tv (gaming system, satellite, blue ray player), I have all these things connected to my tv via HDMI cable with the tv connected to the soundbar via optical cable; I get to utilize the soundbar for all my connections this way.

That looks like what I have. I plug an optical plug from my Apple TV to that device but, in my case, then run analog from that to an Smart Board. I would assume, with the right cable connection, you could make it work with headphones. I will tell you that sometimes I've failed to get sound. As I recall, it has always been when reconnecting. Each time I unplugged and replugged in each connecting element and it would work.
