For what it's worth -- if you are watching broadcast television via antenna the LG60PN6500 TV has a Toslink (Digital Optical Audio) OUT connector that you can output the audio signal to a receiver/amp with. If it's broadcast in 5.1 You'll get the signal that way.

As I have mine setup (Digital Audio Out from TV to Converter to Integrated Amp), No.When I raise or lower the volume via my TV remote, the sound stays constant to my amp. (e.g., If I mute the TV, its speakers go silent but the source (Blue-ray player, etc.) plays directly through.This may be with the TV itself (Samsung 5350 Plasma) and, perhaps, not others but I have no way of knowing.I was surprised that the TV volume/mute control did not control the Digital Audio Out.Note that I am using an Integrated Amp that was born in 1978.Good luck.

IT works ok from my HD Box but not from the audio outputs at the backside of my tv. The Shart works but the sound Quality insnt so good. Whyred is that?

Here's the deal: Apparently most tvs will downgrade the signal from the hdmi into 2.1 so if you use an optical audio out from the tv to the receiver it is transmitting the 2.1 signal to the receiver so you won't be getting the 5.1 dolby digital surround. I've been doing research on this for my upcoming surround sound system purchase and checked it out. If it still sounds ok to you then stick with it if you want. If you'd rather have true 5.1 then you need to run individual optical audio cables to the receiver from the sources. Hope this helps.

The sony TV has an option of switching between the TV and Audio system speakers. I use that feature. Also, as you said, when I turn on my TV, the HTS turns on. So that works for me. As far as electricity is concerned, as long as the amplifier is not working, the electricity used should be minimal even though the receiver is on. Am I right?

I have this USB card and I like it. I use the optical digital output to my home theater (DVD) system and that works well. Do your 5.1 speakers have separate inputs for r, l, sub, and rear? With this system, it has 2 options for 5.1: either digital optical, or 4 separate wires running to inputs in your 5.1 system. In my case, I did not have 4 separate analog inputs for these speakers, so digital optical was my only option. If you do not have digital optical or 4 analog inputs on your 5.1 system, then I would not get this product.

on mine the audio only works for output A but you can get a "pass thru analog audio extractor" for the output B. it is made by NYKO. there are a lot of makers of this. Its a HDMI cable with two RCA jacks coming out of the thick part of the HDMI head. this pull of the Audio for sound system

don't get the 506. it does not send the audio through the HDMI ports. you need a separate cable for audio whic in essence defeats the purpose of HDMI.

You're right, this isn't an audio amplifier. It's a decoder so you can mix and match different outputs/inputs like coaxial, optical and switch between two channel, (2.1) and five channel, (5.1). Solv es many connection problems between different equipment.

Not sure which adapter you are referring to. If you're talking about the Audio output I guess what type system you are sending the signal to. Some will decode the audio signal from the HDMI output, others decode it on a separate audio channel. Hope this helps.

if you connect your TV(the optical Output) to "Digital to Analog Audio Decoder"in the optical input and then connect your speakers to "Digital to Analog Audio Decoder" to the analog outputs work in 5.1,if you want to connect the TV directly to the speakers, your speakers should have optical input and yes works in 5.1

My sound bar, the Vizio 5.1 wireless system indicates that 5.1 dolby digital when connected via optical to the tv's optical out. It only does this when the source on the TV is 5.1 in OTA programming or using the in TV smart applications. Its does not provide 5.1 passthrough with my HDMI cable to my set top box or my PS3. Those had to be hooked up directly to the soundbar to get 5.1 sound. However if you have a soundbar that will upmix 2 ch PCM it will pass that signal through HDMI and try its best to make it "surround"

It depends. The 5.1 is a bit of a strange deal, but it definitely did what I wanted it to do, and that was provide 5.1 audio from HDMI to Optical into my old 5.1 receiver that only had Optical in and no HDMI. The trick is that it doesn't do Linear PCM or any uncompressed 5.1 sound. However, compressed audio like Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 work perfectly. Depending on the Sonos's settings, you should be able to get 5.1 through to it using this switch

Hi Larry, this is a Sony Sound Bar system in which it doesn't require you to connect it on an amp. Available connection method is via HDMI, digital coaxial in, digital optical in and analog in. -Ely
