Can I hook this box to my tv and then plug a pair of bosre stero head phones into it and listen to tv as I am hard of hearing

depending on the plug on your bose headphones the digital to analog unit only accepts 3.5mm and rca plugs. Most headphones are 3.5mm. I am having trouble with these units accepting dolby dd 5.1. they do seem to be working ok with PCM.

I'm not positive but I think you can ONLY if your headphones have a volume control.

Add-on to previous answer: this box unfortunately does not have much gain and that is why I was skeptical about using the headphones only with the box. The box does depreciate volume level when compared to using the Toslink optical out. Just another 2 cents.

All of what has already been said, AND, the headphone link is very noisy. Mine is anyway. Buzzes...hums... Same with two different inputs, two different power sources, no matter where it is placed. It's not an enviromentally induced noise...it's the converter.

Sure, as long as your TV has the output for Toslink or Coaxial and your headphones use the 3.5mm audio jack or RCA. The only problem I can see you having is that on my TV you cannot control the volume via the TV so your headphone should have some sort of volume control.

I believe if you double check that it has a headphone jack, it will work with your headphones. One drawback is that the volume possibly might not work via TV volume control. In that case it would be work more efficient to hook up to a small stereo system and use the headphone jack on it. If your headphones have its own volume, this may work. I found I had to do a lot of trial and error to accomplish what I was working towards. I have a TV without the usual audio outputs, only an optical/audio out. I hope this helps.

Yes, you can, but you won't be able to control volume unless you get an additional piece like this: Behringer HA400 4-Channel Stereo Headphone Amp. Don't forget to get an SPDIF cable to go from TV to this box (and your TV must have an spdif out) - Good luck, works great for my wife.

There is a 3.5mm port but as others mentioned controlling the volume would likely be an issue. On my particular set the television volume does not effect the volume of the external speakers connected via this device.

The adapter has a low power output. The head phones need to be internally powered. I set this up for my father, who is also hard of hearing, and ran into a stereo receiver near where sits. He can control the volume as he pleases and could use headphones if he wants. He is very happy with the setup. If you decide to get it, do not forget the optical (fiber) cable. Hope this helps. Joe.

Yes. There is a 1/8 inch headphone jack on the front of this box and a volume control knob for it. The TV volume can be completely down, and your headphone volume will be independantly controlled by this unit's volume knob.

Yes it can. This would be the case as long as your tv or more likely your cable box have bluetooth. You can also connect with an auxiliary jack cable out from your tv to the speaker.

It would depend on what type of connectors you have on the TV. the speakers have the headphone sized plug (3.5mm?).You would need something that would adapt to what you have on the tv's output. It's to hard to generalize. . .

Yes, providing the television set has a stereo audio output jack. The stereo plug on your headphone cable is 3.5 mm size. If the TV has a 1/4-inch audio jack, you will need a 3.5 mm-to-1/4-inch adapter. You should have received one with your headphones. Enjoy!

You definitely can if your TV has a 3.5mm headphone outlet, though the cable on the Portapro will be pretty short. You can easily buy an extension cable for pretty cheap right here on Amazon though. If you are using these for TV there are better options out there, though they do cost a bit more. I would recommend the Sennheiser 555's. You can buy a pair used for $75.00 right here on Amazon as well. The Portapros are great if you're on a budget though. I love mine and nothing beats the no questions asked lifetime guarantee. Check the Koss website for more details.

As long as your Tv has an audio output terminals you can use these headphones. Or you can use the audio output from your Cable box if you have one of those.

If your TV has a headphone jack, you can. If it is a very old TV, you may need an adapter. The headphones should fit the headphone jack in the TV without a problem.

yes it can go between the box and the tv if it has composite cable output (most do have them) and the tv will work. It will not send sound to the stereo. if the tv has a headphone jack you might be able to connect to the stereo using it.

The page says it supports line-in with 3.5mm jack. If your TV has a headphone jack you can connect it the line-in on the headphones

I'm not sure what a cable box RCA connector is but I know you can hook them up to the headphone connector on a tv.

Just be careful, some TVs don't have RCA outputs or headphone jacks. Then you need a digital to analogue converter (i think that would work, I am working on this problem myself.) Or I believe you can hook it straight to a cable box to avoid all that (with RCA cables.)

Sort of, you can plug it into an spdif cable that is attached to your TV then you can use it from a 3.5mm spdif jack, not a normal headphone jack.
712329
Yes. That's what I use mine for. There is an 1/8 jack that plugs into the TV headphone. There is also RCA inputs.

You will need to have some kind of an audio out. Our TV only has a headphone jack. I hooked that up as my audio out. It works great! If you have one of those, you are in business. This is a great product. I hope you get it working.

You should be able to hook up a TV using the 'AUX' input. Note the Aux input on the receiver side is a 1/8" stereo headphone style cable, so the appropriate cable would be needed. Also the receiver runs on household current.

That was my biggest question. Yes you can. Just need a headphone-to-RCA cable/adapter, and that plugs into your headphone jack
