Connecting the soundbar to your TV

Over time, manufacturers provide users with more and more different options. Thus, from now on you can connect the soundbar to the TV. However, it is necessary to know certain features in the process. Therefore, in this article we will look at the most common options, and also find out the types of cables that can be used in the procedure.

Basic soundbar to TV connections

Looking at the connector panel, you can see optical, coaxial, and analog inputs. The most suitable connection option is the digital method. Of course, if your TV is unable to implement this method, then you can arm yourself with an analog connection.

With both options, you can choose your preferred procedure. It's worth doing a little checking later. To do this, it is advisable to go to the settings and disable the built-in acoustics. This way you can make sure that the TV is able to send a signal to a neighboring device.

Which cable to connect the soundbar to the TV

The location of the holes itself may vary depending on the device model. Despite this, there are several options for making the connection work correctly. If you want to use the HDMI port in practice, it is recommended to follow the following sequence of actions:

1. First, it makes sense to make sure that there is support for the return audio channel of both the TV itself and the sound panel. This need is due to the fact that when a signal is played back, the result is sound.
2. Then you should understand that there can be several types of entry. Therefore, you just need to connect the sources to the soundbar, that is, connect one end of the wire to the corresponding connector and the other to the TV.
3. Next, activate the function in the structure menu.

REFERENCE! It is best to consult with a specialist, as settings may differ between manufacturers.

In this case, the soundbar will directly transmit an unchanged video signal. As for audio broadcasting, automatic processing will occur. However, if it is not possible to implement the above method, you will have to neglect the use of the optical input. But in this aspect it is important to take into account some specifics:

1. Your unit may be equipped with either a coaxial port or Toslink. Although they both serve the same purpose.
2. All signal sources are recorded directly to the TV, after which the audio is transmitted through the corresponding input to the soundbar.

ATTENTION! It is important to consider the fact that this tool is not capable of maintaining high quality. This category includes Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD.

Another option is the Ethernet port. Sound bars that are equipped with it can join your home network. Moreover, most often they have built-in wi-fi. This means that you will not have to use different wires, which means convenience.

Useful tips

In addition, some aspects should be taken into account when choosing the interaction of two structures:

• When using an analog port, it is recommended to prefer the RCA type. Of course, this is not the best way, however, it will provide the user with stereo sound.
• Some subwoofers have their own output. Therefore, it is physically possible to carry out the connection, however, some complications may arise in the process. This is because they are most often used to maintain low frequencies.
