Yes, or any other of the jacks that you might have. That's all I did and it works just fine. I don't like the volume thing because there is no level meter so you just kinda have to guess.

Sometimes, you have to go into set up on your TV and select audio settings and then tell it that you are using this sound bar instead of your normal TV speakers. Some TVs will automatically recognize it. If you have any more questions let me know.

Most digital cable boxes have optical outputs now. If yours has it, hook the optical cable between your cable box and the sound bar and you should be good to go.

I have an LG TV...on the back of the TV there is a square-looking boxed-in plug that says "Optical Digital Audio Out" - on mine, the plug and the wording are outlined together. So one end of the cable goes in there, and the other end probably attaches to a similar plug on your sound bar. They don't look like there's an opening, but you just push the plug into the outlet. Wish I could attach a picture to this...

Yes, Optical audio from TV (out) to Sound Bar (in) is available. You might get more info if you can obtain the Owner's Manual (or equivalent) on-line at the Panasonic, http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/SCHTB70.PDF. This link isn't the correct manual, but it does show the optical terminal connections.

Yes you need an optical cable to connect the sound bar to your cable box or TV.

If your receiver can be connected to your TV via HDMI, and you set the receiver to output the audio to the TV, you could in theory run it like this and the sound would be output by the soundbar (when the soundbar is connected to the TV directly)

Hi, As long as your TV has a ( Audio Out ) connection you should be able to connect this sound bar. The Sound bar has a Small ( Audio In ) connector, This type of connector looks like the single poll sized connector used on a lot of computer sound in jacks. If your TV has a RCA type of ( Audio Out ) connections =if it has two connections,( a Red and a White ) audio out jacks like my tv has you can buy an adaptor cable that has the two Red and White RCA plugs on one end that will plug into your TV and the the small single plug jack on the other end that will plug into this sound bar. This is how I set it up with my TV. The sound bar works really good with very good loud and clear sound. It was well worth the money in my opinion. I hope this helps you with your decision.

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.

In the back all jacks are inputs, you have a HDMI for video and audio, but it is an input. You need and digital output for your soundbar. hope this help you.

The sound bar will need a cable INPUT from TV AUDIO OUTPUT and should have come with one of these, optical cable, RCA or 1.5 plug.

Cable box goes directly to TV. The optical plug goes from sound bar to cable box. HDMI cable from game unit to bar. We used HDMI 1 for GAME UNIT. Then HDMI output on bar goes to TV. There may be an easier way but this works well.

Connect your ps4 directly to the soundbar, or connect your tv to the soundbar with an optical audio cable

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.

You need coaxial audio cable or optical to make proper connection with your soundbar.

It's the very thin optical wire that comes with sound bar that goes from sound bar to optical output on your TV. The sound bar instructions will show you a diagram. You just need to find (identify) the optical outlet on you TV. Then of course you have the power cord for sound bar to wall outlet. Hope this helps

Sounds like what you need. My application required going from the orange RCA coax type on the TV and converting to the fiber optic type on the soundbar. It all works fine, but the converter does not come with either the coax cable or the fiber optic cable.

Ok. The way I have mine set up is, I used the supplied OPTICAL AUDIO cable, connected from the TV to the sub woofer. This way, everything that would be coming out of the TV speakers, are coming out of the sound bar and the sub woofer in amazing sound quality.
