will it work with a home theater in a box kind of receiver?

If I understand your question correctly, yes. I use mine with a Onkyo receiver. The transmitter is wired to the receiver and the speaker is at the rear of the room. My fronts and center are connected in the conventional wired manor. This is the only rear I use and it provides a very good effect all things considered.

It should work provided you have rca outputs for rear speakers AND a way to balance the volume.

I couldn't get it to work at all, and thier customer service was so help at all. I ended up haveing to return it.

It should work just fine. The setup program will optimize the receiver based on the speakers hooked up and the type and quality of the speakers. The receiver is really designed as a home theater system so there will likely be lots of features that you will not utilize with your setup!

Hi Linda, It will work with any receiver as long as the receiver supports RCA audio input or Optical connection. -Anthony

It will work fine as long as the .1 (sub output) is not an active signal. Most receivers are not active. Usually if they're passive they have a mono RCA output, and if it's active it will have a speaker jack (for speaker wire). This sub kicks! I love the adjustable crossover, and the auto on/off feature.

As long as your receiver has subwoofer RCA output it will work. I have an Onkyo 717 and it was pretty much plug and play.

I am no expert but from my experience if the receiver has a 35 audio input it will work. I have used it on my truck radio, my honda radio and a Onkyo receiver and all worked with no problem

The small box works as a receiver. It's actually pretty cool because you can make audio adjustments and have a lot of devices hooked to it. You don't get this option with other sound bars that only plug into the TV set.

so long as there is an active signal through the HDMI port on your receiver, it will work. i'm not sure the purpose of hooking it to a home theater receiver, though. the HDMI hub means you have one out from the hub that goes to the TV. The other ports are in ports, which allows you to automatically or manually choose your source or input among three devices. if you aren't connecting the hub directly to the TV, then are you trying to connect multiple devices into your one home theater HDMI port? Which means you are connecting your one HDMI "out" on your home theater receiver to your tv, correct? so long as there is an active signal through the HDMI port on your receiver, it will work. i'm not sure the purpose of hooking it to a home theater receiver, though. the HDMI hub means you have one out from the hub that goes to the TV.

The card has a coax spdif digital output (rca connector). If your receiver has an input for that, it would work.

Certainly. Just be careful to have the volume below half on both the receiver and the powered speakers before you turn in the unit

Yes if your receiver has separate subwoofer Input that supports powered subwoofer it works ,this subwoofer is pretty good and generates nice base and sound

Yes it will. The receiver is the main part you need to bring in the HD signals.

You could, but there are no RCA inputs which is usually the most common connection on a home receiver. Other than having a connection type adapter you should be able to use it. Make sure and turn off the backlit logo as it might be a little bright in a theater room.

As long as the adapter or the home theater receiver has a method of pairing with the speakers, they should be able to connect and stream audio

If the soundbar has a sub out then yes, it will work. The sub has its own power supply (it is an active sub) and does not require a receiver to amplify the sound.

I'm no professional, but if your receiver has USB or AC/Adapter ability, I would say yes.

Yes it will. You just need to make sure you have a powerful enough receiver to power the speakers.
