Have 24 inch flat screen with lousy audio-- not loud enough. Will this unit solve my problem?

If you are able to hook this up to your TV and place the unit close to you, yes this will work, otherwise it is not very loud at a distance. It is a good speaker for voice clarity but it has almost ZERO bass. It is meant to be near, on a desk or book shelf but this sound bar IS NOT like a traditional surround sound sound bar. This sound bar is smaller and works with computers and laptops and some TV's. It did not work with my LG flat screen.

No the size of the sound bar is irrelevant what counts is the quality of the sound. My HD TV is a 55 works just great. Go for it!

If your tv has the side RCA pug ins like most tv's you can get it to work. I own one of these sound bars if I had it to do over I would spend a little more and get a better sound bar.

Absoultely! I tried using only the built-in speakers in the television itself, but they weren't loud enough to hear and sounded distorted at high volume levels. I purchased oCosmo's sound bar and connected it to the television. The sound is much better and volume is more than adequate.

It depends on how your TV delivers it's sound. If it has a low level analogue out(RCA jacks) you should have no problem(except for a possible delay in the sound. However if your only output is a headphone jack, it might defeat the TV sound. I can't really help you without your TV's manual.

Any component will degrade signal quality to some degree, and add some noise. The real issue has to do with perception. I switch between a TV, a CD deck, and a tablet. I have not perceived any degradation or noise. It sure beats switching cables. I would give it a try. You will be pleased.

You will need an amplifier. If you don't already have one, you should probably consider a sound bar with a built-in amp

yes the make addapters, but not all handle sound. Just search hdmi s video.

Yes, it helps a lot. DE enabled at normal volume works great. Much better than default speakers on the TV.

Not sure how good it will be. I have only used it in a "smaller" way. A large TV may need a more powerful range, but you could probably try it and if not to your satisfaction return it. The speaker is wonderful with the computer -- more than adequate.

Wow, bless your heart. I spent hours on the phone with Sony and Panasonic only to be spinning my wheels. Ended up returning my soundbar. Perhaps Radio Shack might be able to help you out. Sorry, I'm not much help. I wish you well.

No! I usually have my TV down to 0 then have speakers beside me so I can keep the volume down then turn the speakers according. Some movies come in louder than others!

The device will most of the time decrease the volume. It won't be desirable for senior who needs TV to be louder.

I've seen the other answers in the feedback but for the life o me I can't see how they would help. I use it for the tv, since I have become hard of hearing and wife says play the tv too loud I connect audio cables to the cable box and run them to Sony earphones and then using I splitter y adapter connect it to the amplifier and sound is unbelievable. Hope this helps

Many LED Flat screens have poor sound-hook audio out into an external amplifier or stereo system

The sound sound on the tv itself is definitely lacking in the audio department. I see why you ordered one, with that being said I have no idea if it will work or not, hell I didn't even know they had one.

The problem is not just the speakers. There isn't sufficient amplification to product acceptable sound levels.best to get a sound bar or an inexpensive receiver and speakers. YMMV
