Can you set the volume button to control your surround sound? Also can this turn on/off your surround sound box?

I have the Xbox 360 surround system made by Pioneer. Does anyone think it may control that surround system?

No. It only controls the Xbox or the TV. No audio controls unless it is on the TV.

I don't have a surround sound but to be honest, I don't think you can. It works the tv volume just fine but I'm sure that if you programmed it to work the SS then you would lose the function of the tv.

There are no individual volume controls for each output...they are just "in" or "out" buttons....

Yes, there is a volume control on the power switch, I set it to as loud as it would go when I first set it up, and then used the volume control on my phone after that. :) The power switch will also control play by skipping forward and the like, but I never used the switch for that. I just used the controls on my phone. The instruction sheet that comes with it is very small (meaning the print is small), but it's very thorough and includes a troubleshooting section.

Yes. You can control both volume and channel, and even the source ( dvd, antenna, cable) via remote, but NOT the on/off.

Yes and no. There is an overall volume control and mute button on the R satellite (they are a bit awkward t use unless you have the speakers tilted back a bit, which I usually don't) and a separate sub-woofer volume control that controls the volume of the sub, but I have found the effect to be subtle unless you turn it completely off or all the way up. I haven't touched the volume and bass controls for a long time - I tend to use the PC volume control and the audio controls on whatever media player I am using. Overall I am very happy with these speakers.

No, remote can control the speakers on TV itself. My wireless headphones' volumes stay unchanged. I can set it to a different volumes.

I believe there are several surround sound presets and that one of them is a 5 ch surround. Hope that helps...

The Speaker A and B buttons on the front individually turn on or off either set of speakers. You can turn both A and B on at the same time for a setup you describe, although it won't be actual surround, as this is a stereo receiver that only supports left/right, not 5.1 or 7.1 surround

Depending upon your A/V device. The device has it's own volume control but, some A/V devices also allow you to control it via their device. Hope that this helps.

You can't, you must use your computer sound settings to control the computer volume.

The system only has three adjustments. Two volume switches and one echo switch. You can connect an outside surround sound system with an adjustable equalizer to make your sound better. The system has worked great for me so far. I have not had any issues so far. The system comes with two mics an AV audio video cable and has HDMI and USB Capabilities. Sounds great with a surround sound system hooked up to the TV.

Hello,Did you ever figure this out? I just bought this TV last night and I'm very happy with it, but I use a surround sound system and have to keep the TV volume on 0. There should be a way to turn the speakers off - right?Thanks for any info.

I'm not physically looking at it, but yes, several of the F keys at the top can control the volume while pressing the function (fn) key. There is no sole button for the volume.

It will control the tv volume, but you will have to adjust the soundbar manually,and as you turn up the volume, you should get the increase in sound that you want.

You can control by any means you like...the speakers are not the source. If you have a volume control on your source, just use that. CD player, computer sound card, DAC...up to you. I use an external sound card with a volume knob, i leave the PC software volumes on 100% and how high you put the volume on the speakers is up to you, you just regulate it with whatever comes before the speakers.
