We used an HDMI Cable and plug it into the back of the TV. Do you have HDMI connections

Use a digital optical cable from the sound bar to the tv. The second type of cable shown in the instructions is for a dvd player.

The best quality sound, and the easiest way, is to get a Digital Optical Cable. One plug in, one plug out to TV. I bought one from Amazon Basics, and it has worked great for the last 7 months. Not to expensive, either.

Safraz, This model does not have an audio output, so connecting your audio bar directly to your cable/sat box or other source device would be recommended. Thanks for your interest in Samsung televisions. --Mr. S

This subwoofer does not have built-in wireless capability.You would need to contact Yamaha support to confirm if there is a wireless adapter that is compatible with your sound bar and this subwoofer.

I had a similar set up and didn't need a receiver, however there are limited inputs on the sound bar and i bought a cheap input switch to make it work

you're not looking for what your tv can input, you want the output for the TV. In case your TV still doesn't have an optical output then the sound bar has the analog inputs on the back. If you don't have an optical output (there should be a small, square hole with a red glowing light that shows that it is an optical out) then your set is outdated or a very cheap TV. If you don't have the optical out then the sound bar would not be beneficial since the analog input does not use the sub-woofer. Here is the manual to see what can go where. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/ephox/StaticFiles/PUSA/Files/Home/SP-BS23W_Owners_Manual_English_Nov_14_2013.pdf

I have a Polk Audio SurroundBar IHT 6000 Instant Home Theater that works with the Samsung UN46F7100 46-Inch 1080p 240Hz 3D Ultra Slim Smart LED HDTV. Havent configured the remote control unit yet but as long as you have digital optical on your tv you'll be fine

If I understand the question correctly......You must plug in a wire to the "coaxial" input to your sound bar (RCA type wire at both ends) then to the "coaxial" output to your Television. The blue tooth connection is only between the sound bar and the sub woof and it will connect automatically once you plug into the ac outlet and have your coaxial wire plugged in.

did you hook the receiver to the soundbar so the receiver should be the output and the soudbar should be the input if it is the other way it will not work

the subwoofer is integral with the sound bar - it should work with the other speakers in the sound bar assuming your other speakers are working - do not expect the bass to be as full as a separate subwoofer although the volume will be more than sufficient

Hi Th, Sony KDL40S2000 TV suppports Analog Audio In, Audio Out, Component Video, Composite Video Input, Digital Audio Output, RF Connection Input, S-Video Input, Headphone Output, Pc Video Input, HDMI Connection. Check with SoundBar manufacturer if any of these connections will work on their product. -Vincent

Awesome, thanks. So I guess running my PC into the TV first then just using the universal optical out from the TV to the soundbar would be optimal anyway.

Jim, i have this unit and hdmi is finicky so i couldn't get it to work. So no big loss. Instead, use fiber optic audio output of tv to feed optical input of soundbar and all will be good. Regards, Greg

I just did that very thing. My Samsung Home Theater is also HDMI 1.4 ready so I hooked it up with just the main output from the Panasonic and everything worked just fine, but I keep reading that it's still better to use two cables with the video turned off the (Sub) output. My TV is a LG 3D LED Smarty but it has only one HDMIARC input so I naturally I put the main Panasonics output there. I put the out put from my A/V machine to the HDMI2 hole. That should do it. I haven't tried it yet. I have a brand new copy of "Johnny Depp's Alice in wonderland". I'll let you know how it works.

Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you as I am having similar problems. Hooked my YHT S-400 up to an LG TV and I can't get the sound bar to work. Sound is coming through the sub-woofer but nothing through the sound bar. All connections appear good and the HDMI Audio is set to AMP as per instructions. Wondering if the sound bar itself is defective.

The soundbar accepts HDMI and digital (optical or coax). To use your receiver, you would have to connect the HDMI out or some other digital pre-out. Another option is to buy an un-powered unit and the speaker terminals from the receiver would power it.

I looked at the specs of the soundbar and it looks like you can connect it to the TV using RCA jacks as well as bluetooth. If you use RCA, you should be able to control the device using the TV remote or the Universal device set to the TV's code.
