How do i hook up a sound bar? I connected it to the digital audio output (orange port) and messed with all the settings but had no luck.

I hook mine up with a 3.5 headphone jack with a RCA connector on the other end. ( Red & White ) The plugin is right above the USB port on side of the TV a little hard to see, but it's there. These connectors can be purchased at any electronic store or Walmart. Even on Amazon. Hope this helps.

It comes with a digital audio cable, which is the best way to connect it. It may have come with RED connection as well, but can't recall. This is a great sound bar.

There are three output ports on this soundbar--two are Optical Digital and one is Digital Audio Coax. Here are the exact cables I purchased: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004LT2C5W/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002J2B8I/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i03?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The one specifically labeled as TV on the soundbar is one of the optical ones, but if your TV doesn't have that type of port, you can use the coax one and remember to hit the right button on the soundbar/remote when you use it. Hope this helps!

The tv needs to have an optical out and the sound bar has the optical in, that'll send the sound thru the tv to the sound bar. If your not getting any sound from the sound bar it's probably in the wrong port.

I used hdmi. Get the latest hdmi because some old hdmi won't output the sound.

I'm not sure but my suggestion to you is to try to find another sound bar cause the sound quality is not that good.

There are audio out jacks on the back of the monitor. I simply ran a wire to my stereo amplifier. I believe you can plug in a speaker bar if you prefer that. (or don't have a hifi system)

It sounds like your sound bar is not connected throught the TV set. The audio cable should be connected to the TV set so that when the TV set is turned off there will be no sound through the sound bar. I have also had trouble with the remote for the sound bar. It seems to go out of alignment sometimes and will not operate the sound bar. I find that pushing the top button on the sound bar until it blinks orange and then hitting the volume control button will cause the soundbar and remote to work together again. One of the problems I read about with the sound bar was that the remote will not always operate the sound bar. Hopes this helps.

I would try changing the digital cable that connects your sound bar to the tv, cause if that cable is intermittently failing the sound bar won't getting any signal from the tv and will shut off thinking its not being use..

I believe the only hookup to the soundbar are threaded, red and black gold plated posts, which would be coming from an amplifier or an amplified surround sound receiver. I bought this soundbar for a family member and its been a while since I've seen it. I hope this helps.

Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you as I am having similar problems. Hooked my YHT S-400 up to an LG TV and I can't get the sound bar to work. Sound is coming through the sub-woofer but nothing through the sound bar. All connections appear good and the HDMI Audio is set to AMP as per instructions. Wondering if the sound bar itself is defective.

There is only a digital optic port, no HDMI port. You would have to see if your TV are receiver, has a digital optic port and direct connect it to the sound bar

This particular sound bar does not have a HDMI port. You can use the optical input or the A/V cables if your TV has them.

Think of this soundbar as being a replacement for traditional speakers so you'll need an amplifier. If you don't have an amp or your TV doesn't have speaker outputs, you'll want to find a soundbar that has the amp built in and accepts some sort of digital input.

get a samsung sound bar... or get a receiver and klipsch speakers and connect them to your tv...just like what I did. It's a home theatre.

You don't need a sound bar. You can use the trusurround HD sound, the equalizer amplify effects. You have to adjust it to your preference.

I'm not sure about all that you are asking, all I know is that I had to plug in my Soundbar to the headphones jack for sound to come out of my soundbar. Hope this helps a littl
