Can the volume be conteolled with the tv remote? Is this okay to use for a 46" tv?

I believe if you have SIMPLINK on your TV and ARC, you can connect the bar through HDMI and use the TV's remote to control the soundbar, however, on the soundbar's remote there are buttons to control basic operation of the TV: POWER, INPUT, VOLUME+/- and CHANNEL +/- so for everyday operation you could just use the soundbar's remote, and switch to the TV's remote when you need to change TV settings.

I use Harmony remotes and the volume is adjustable with them through Harmony. Otherwise you just have to use the little remote that comes with it. The speaker bar has a 65 watt amplifier built into it.

Yes you can. If your tv has a 3.5mm headphone/earphone jack. Once you have plugged it in, turn the volume on the tv up to half, and gauge the sound with the volume control on the Altec speakers. Then you can use the tv remote to adjust volume from there.

Be aware that you wouldn't want to use this speaker system with a TV if that TVs external sound output level/volume is not adjustable from the remote. Some TVs have a fixed output so you should check your TVs manual.

Yes, this TV can be mounted with most standard wall mounts that fit a 46" TV. We have ours mounted on the wall.

This device does not control the volume on your TV: you must use your TV's remote or built-in volume controls.

I use my Sceptre TV remote to control the Sceptre sound bar volume. The TV remote has separate volume +/- buttone.

I really don't know. Ours is a 46"...as TVs today are light anyway, maybe yours would work; or could you place it on a shelf below the TV...would that work? I'm not sure.

volume will not be louder but sound quality? Hell yes. Use the Vizio speakers and the HT12B together if you can. Some hookup methods will allow tv remote to mute both speaker sets, others will mute only tv speakers as mine does. I use minor volume on the HTB with maximum bass. This way I get better directional sound and a much fuller bass, but when muting a tv ad the volume is minimal. Cheers

Only if you want to. I watch TV with the volume on the TV turned all the way down. At any point, with the TV remote, you can raise or lower the TV's volume. The headphones have their own volume controls. That's one of the things that makes them so awesome! :))

I have a 42" TV and it's fine. I guess it would depend if you want the width of the sound bar to match the width of your TV --in that case it wont -- it's worth the price though -- not bad sound for the rec room.

There is a mini jack port (not sure about the tv specifics) and yes he remote is for control of volume and on/off

If the TV has a headphone output jack, any headphone can be used. You use the volume adjuster on the TV remote

You can turn the volume on the tv up and down but the speaker system does not have its own seperate volume control

The tv volume won't flow through to the speakers. However, if you always want your speakers at the same volume, I suppose you wouldn't need the volume remote. I like to adjust volume from tv to movies to music, but that's just me.

Unfortunately it does not have any volume control whatsoever. The headphones were meant for personal listening. The audio line isn't long enough presumably if your jacking it to your tv, you would have to be standing pretty close if that's the case. The jack is a 3.5mm and most TVs would need a adapter. Hope this answers your question.

From my experience the use of the TV volume control by the TV remote control unit, it will only turn the speakers on your TV high or low. For the Panasonic speakers used here, you have to use the Panasonic remote control to adjust for the volume of its speaker output or unless your TV remote is a smart one which can be configure to emulate the remote controls of other devices of other brand including Panasonic.
