This device does not have an Optical port. It only has HDMI which transmits both the video and audio signal to your AV Receive.

Easy. All you need is to connect the RCA output jacks to the input jacks in the back of your amplifier. Only need the RCA cable and connect to Aux or CD input. There is a digital output in the back and if you have it you can connect the digital out to the digital in on you amplifier. All you'll need is a digital optical cable.

Buy a optical cable and hook it up from the tv to surround sound. The cable is 4.00 on amazon.

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.

pworam is right. You have to go to input mode on the TV. You will see the listing on the bottom and a picture of speakers. Select that you want the speakers to go to external. Using your digital optical audio to Home Theatre system will work(maybe even an ARC HDMI). Of course you have to set you speaker system to play AUX or Digital in.

Oh, I forgot. You probably need optical cables too if u use a smart TV And Will Have The Sound Coming Out From The T.V directly as opposed to sound from your cable box.

Use the optical connector. Our takes the sound from the tv back to the unit

If your system has an optical cable, such as the PS 3, all you have to do is unplug the optical cord from the subwoofer and plug that into the same port on your other system.

The optical cable is a nice-to-have. An HDMI cable will do the trick (it won't carry Dolby if your TV can produce it).

Use a 3.5MM to 2 RCA cable from the speakers to the L and R aoudio out on the back of the TV.

I would think you need a standard optical cable as long as the sound bar has optical input. I am using this to send audio from my TV into my receiver.

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.

I used standard composite cables to hook into my surround sound unit. HDMI cable will work also

We recommend you obtain an Optical to Analog adapter with a built-in Dolby Digital converter. The Optical connects the TV's optical output jack to the adapter and the adapter's red and white jacks connect to the sound bar.

On the back of the sound bar to the left of the main power cord is a outlet for the optical cable which is supplied with the sound bar. It is a square shaped connection. The other end goes to the optical outlet on the back of your tv. Your power connection goes through the square transformer provided with the sound bar and is plugged into your wall outlet.

Most digital cable boxes have optical outputs now. If yours has it, hook the optical cable between your cable box and the sound bar and you should be good to go.
