No headphone out? Appears to NOT have a headphone output ... any thoughts as to how to connect external speakers and be able to control the volume of the external speakers with the set's remote?

1.) Purchase a set of 2.1 or 5.1 speakers with TosLink (Digital) input. 2.) Purchase a Digital-to-Analog Converter (TosLink-to-RCA Jacks) and use (your existing) analog speakers.

There is a headphone jack that you could plug some external speakers into. Hope this helps!

The speakers do not have a remote. But if you had an item that has its own volume control, such as a computer, you could crank it up and adjust the volume remotely.

Agree with the previous reviewer, you will need a separate amp to use external speakers with this TV. Some TVs will have external speaker jacks (usually just for left and right) and they take RCA plugs to connect...but all you are really doing is moving the sound from the TV to two remote locations (usually about six feet apart) and the volume control remains with the TV controller. The center speaker is useless since it can't be connected. However, if you purchase a separate AMP, you can then run the TV and the speakers through a control unit and it by-passed the TV speakers. Good luck.

This has nothing to do with the headphone, but rather the TV. In my case, my TV has a LINE OUT that I use to connect to the headphone, so the TV volume control, speaker, and mute functions all work as normal. But if you plug the headphone base into the "headphone" jack of the TV, the TV's speaker is almost always muted.Bottom line--check it with any pair of wired headphones/earphones you may have laying around....

It does not have a headphone out plug...only an Aux in plug. It does come with a remote control. I have not used it so I don't know how easy it is to use the remote control.

The remote was the lest of my problems. To be honest it may not be the remote. The whole unit is bad. Give it up and see if you can get a MP3 and a small set of speakers.

there is not an external speaker. headphones only unless you buy some of the small add on speakers. but be sure to read the reviews on them, some will only put out enough volume for one or two people to hear.

no there is no audio output. I tried because the built in speakers sound tinny

Hi..Whatever the speakers are connected to can control the volume. I have mine plugged into my PC,with speaker volume all the way up,then use the PC volume controls from there on..Hope this helps!..Jon

There is no output labeled "headphones". On the back of the set, where you connect it to either a cable box or the coax, there are two other outputs. One is simply labeled "Audio Out", the other is "PC Audio", which goes with the PC out. There are no connections on the front of the set, or top, left and right sides. My info is based primarily on the documentation that came with it since it was not possible for me to directly look at the back of the set due to its position on a high kitchen shelf.

Luke, I don't know. I haven't tried to hook up any external speakers. Sorry

Actually, there are hook ups for speakers in the back. You can use the onboard speakers or external speakers through a standard connection (not necessary to use the headphone jack for that).

Dave, check the rear of your TV for the Audio Output, should be two ,right and left . you connect the white and red leads from the TV Listener transmitter to the TV. Set the transmitter in your line of sight so your headphones can connect with its beam. you control the volume from the head set. The TV can be on mute or low low and you can still control the volume. I love these headphones'

I'm not aware of any solutions apart from utilizing the headphone out on your audio receiver. With a TV this nice you've got a sound system, right? ;-)

Andrew, thanks for the interest here. No this unit does not offer any remote control option. It is analog through and through with no LCD interface. There is an on/off toggle. These units have held up well overall from what I have seen. Once in place (especially as strictly a headphone amp) the sonic quality output is pretty dramatic vs. straight to source. If purchased from me, I conduct a brief test before final packing to ensure all is functioning as opposed to just a shelf pull and pack.

It needs some kind of adapter that doesn't come with the set. It might come with your headphone? I'd appreciate hearing from someone who knows what adapter we need to get. . .
