Does this have an optical audio output? Trying to see if it would be compatible with a sound bar....

Sorry for such a late response but this JBL sound bar has no HDMI connection. Only optical and the optical input is what failed. Don't buy this.

This question was posted over a year ago, but I'll answer: DO NOT buy the sound bar. It is terrible. Very low quality audio, crackles horribly when level nears top range. The television is louder than the sound bar (same crackle) The TV has an optical output, but the bar does not.

Rod, There is both a digital optical and analog (3.5mm) audio output on this model. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

This does not come with an optical output. You have to purchase the fiber optic cable made specifically for the X Box 360 which comes with the needed adapter in order for this cable to output Dolby Digital 5.1 sound.

Well yes and no. For the purpose of this soundbar the only audio formats it can really handle can be carried by optical, there are higher quality like true sound hd, but this bar is not an audiophile bar and thus can't even approach the potential quality of the regular formats. The limit is the bar, not the sound input.

you're not looking for what your tv can input, you want the output for the TV. In case your TV still doesn't have an optical output then the sound bar has the analog inputs on the back. If you don't have an optical output (there should be a small, square hole with a red glowing light that shows that it is an optical out) then your set is outdated or a very cheap TV. If you don't have the optical out then the sound bar would not be beneficial since the analog input does not use the sub-woofer.

It's all hard wires to this unit. Buy a set of sound bar. It works with the sound bar via optical cable.

The only audio output is for a headset. 2 trips to radio shack got me a cable that would work to connect my soundbar.

It has optical/toslink out. I'm pretty sure it down-mixes the output to stereo, though.

It has an optical output. Generally speaking one would use HDMI to get audio into the tv, and then optical audio it out to something with a better sound quality.

yes it has an optical hook up on it though I run it through my TV which does not so I use an HDMI cable. But I have used the optical in the with a sound bar.

No, soundbars are made to be plugged into the TV and do not use a receiver. The surround receiver outputs to speaker wire. The opticals are inputs

It has standard component ports and an SPDIF port. I use the SPDIF b/c it's just one digital cable, and there is an inexpensive adapter you can use to go from that to the optical (what I do to go to my LG Soundbar). Works great.

Yes, it has a digital optical output that I use to connect to my sound bar. This is a great tv and you cannot beat the price, especially with the ROKU stick included. Enjoy!

The sound bar works with an optical cable (supplied) or analog cables. My Tv did not have an optical out but my cable box did and it works best when you turn the tv speakers off and let the sound bar do its thing.

Digital Optical are much better than RCA. They carry a 5.1 signal, not sure if your sound bar supports that or not... just beware that these cables (at least the ones I received) are not as pictured. They didn't come with the attached caps and were much thinner and more brittle.
