Hello, This will only work to play music from your phone if the phone has an optical output and I do not know of any that do. You will have to get an analog to digital converter in order to play anything through the phone. Unfortunately we do not have anything like this available. Sincerely, Matt Technical Support Team

I really don't know. I have an iPhone and the sony has a dock compatible with the iPhone and it also has an audio in input. I have never used the audio input but I believe you may be able to use a cable (not included) from your earphone jack into the sony unit but not sure how it would perform. I hope this helps.

Yep with the right adaptors, you should be good to go. Be sure your volume is down when you make the hookup.

I don't see why not as long as your tv has audio outputs either optical or standard red/white...I use the optical on my Sony lcd and it sounds great... also this soundbar unlike most your can set in front of tv on a stand and its low enough not to block tv screen...1 negative is the very small remote is cheap so I bought a programmable Logitech remote to work it...the sa cable box remote couldn't be programmed to work it

This cable should work with any device that supports Digital Optical Audio and has the appropriate optical input/output port. Consult your manual to verify it has the correct port. I just Googled your device and the instruction manual shows an optical digital-audio port. This cable should work just fine.

I bought a Yamaha sound bar that only connects to my TV. On the back of it is the place to connect the TV to the soundbar. The TV said Digital sound and the Yamaha only has optical sound I had to get the extra cord to make the connection work properly. Apparently this is very common with many electronic devices. The cables are much more expensive at local retailers.

Jim, i have this unit and hdmi is finicky so i couldn't get it to work. So no big loss. Instead, use fiber optic audio output of tv to feed optical input of soundbar and all will be good. Regards, Greg

Hi Shawn.... I have mine hooked up to DISH also and to my audio / video receiver. I do believe if your sound bar has optical outlet you should be fine. :)

This didn't work for me. I have a TV with a digital output and a sound bar with rca inputs and optical inputs. I ended up buying a digital to optical converter for twenty five bucks. It works good.

Almost! You will need a digital to audio converter first......here is the one I bought.... Orei DA21X Premium Optical SPDIF/Coaxial Digital to RCA L/R Analog Audio Converter with 3.5mm Jack Support Headphone/Speaker Outputs You connect the "Toslink" cable that comes with the converter.......from the TV to the converter. Then you connect the RCA cable from the other end of the converter.....to your sound bar. It works very well......GT:)

It should. The inputs are on the back. I would recommend a digital optical cable. you can also use other connections as well. It's very versatile.

I am unfamiliar with the particular product you are enquiring about, however: Your TV model has Digital Optical TOSLINK output. Providing your Sound Bar has Digital Optical TOSLINK input I would recommend instead: http://www.amazon.com/ViewHD-TOSLINK-Digital-Optical-Switcher/dp/B00G188Z7A/ref=sr_1_9?s=audio-video-accessories&ie=UTF8&qid=1407943737&sr=1-9 (copy this link to your browser) The product is available from Amazon $31.95. You would also need two TOSLINK cables (Optical Digital Audio) - one from your TV to one of the input ports on the ViewHD connector and one from output port of the connector to the Sound Bar. Different lengths are available from Amazon. I have used this connector to link my HDTV, BlueRay player and Cable Box to my Sound Bar. One advantage is that when playing cable music channels and wanting sound only, I can switch sound signals to go direct from cable box to sound bar and leave TV off. This is a very useful connector.

Answer number 2 is exactly what I would do. Adapter from RCA analog to Digital optical. I have a Sony 200 disc cd player but lucky for me it has an optical out jack.

This looks like the device for you. I'm using the rca to feed our church's sound board. It looks like it'll do optical and rca out concurrently too.

Yes. I have Droid razr maxx which is connected to one of the HDMI inputs and it plays my music fine. I was worried about that as well. I first tried connecting through the USB in the front of the unit with my android but it won't allow it. the HDMI cable works great!

I don't even know what a sound bar is. An adapter had to be created out of scratch to attach the BK speaker to a piano bench for me to use it (I'm a deaf concert pianist and use this to play with soundtracks, "Ben Reynolds - Concert Pianist" on Facebook). I apologize for the lengthy delay (almost 3 years?) as the emailed question had gotten lost in my account and I didn't see it until just a little while ago. Hope this somehow helps answer your question.
