You should be able to run an hdmi cable from the reciever to the tv and make sure the sound settings on the tv are set to output to the hdmi and make sure your box is turned on and set to the hdmi input

There should be an AUDIO OUT place on Tv to plug it in. You may have to purchase a cable.

If your Samsung TV is new, it most likely has ARC support on one of the HDMI inputs. Connected via HDMI ARC (with the TV internal speakers turned off) you should be able to control the volume with your TV remote. My TV (a Vizio) has ARC support and I initially connected the sound bar via HDMI ARC (cable goes from HDMI OUT on soundbar to HDMI ARC IN on TV) and the TV remote controlled the volume in this case. I have since switched to optical connection as I like the interconnectivity options and the way everything functions with my universal remote better with the sound bar connected this way. There is no guarantee it will work even if your TV does have ARC support as implementations from different manufacturers may vary slightly.

There is an optical output in the TV , the optical input from sound bar should be connected to the optical output of the TV. I am not sure if this will work with other TV. I think if there is an optical output, it may work.

Finding an image of your TV, is looks like there is only a headphone out and coaxial out. So you have two options. 1. The system should have come with a 1/8" to 1/8" (3.5mm), male to male, connection cable to go from the headphone jack on your TV to Aux 1 input on the speaker bar. If not one can be had on amazon for around 5-10 bucks. 2. Or you can get a Digital Coax to Optical Adapter, $13-20. BUT I would suggest the first, as the Pinnacle has no onboard decoding, and you would have to make sure the TV is outputting the COAX to PCM, and is just a mess of cables and adapter.

I just purchased the Samsung UN55C8000 3-D TV and was planning to purchase the HTCT500 sound bar. Does the HTCT500 work with Samsung TV? I heard it may have some compatability issue. Since this Samsung is a 3-D, it would make sense if I buy the HTCT350 for 3-D sound. Any idea?

You have to hook it up directtly to the tv with the Aux left and right, unless your tv does blue tooth syncing? If your tv does that then your tv will have to find the Craig Sound Bar as the sound bar does not search and find other devices

I bought the Sharp for my son. The sound was weaker, but according to him, that is the price we pay for the thinner TVs. I also bought a Samsung Smart TV for my house. Both have the same problem. He solved the problem on his with a sound bar. I just turn mine up high. I will probably add speakers to mine eventually.

Did you hook it up with an Optical Cable? I have a 42 inch Samsung and mine works fine using the optical cable. One thing to note is that using the optical cable the volume is controlled by the sound bar not the volume on the TV. You also need to have the Sound Bar set to Optical input. Hope this helps.

You need to connect your sound bar to your cable box/satellite tv receiver. If youre connection is in component cables you connect the video cables ..between the television and the cable box / satellite tv receiver. Then you connect the red and white audio portion of the cable between the cable box/satellite tv receiver and the sound bar. the after that you are going from the OUTPUT of the cable box/satellite tv receiver to the INPUT on the television and sound bar. You must use the function/ source/input button on the sound bar to choose the space you that you have plugged the cables on it or listen to the radio or listen to your device. Hope this helps!

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.

You will need to buy sound cables, I used Monster Cables, strip the cables and inert the plus to the red clamp and the minus to the black. If you have a receiver do the same there. If you are going direct to your TV, you will have to figure what kind of hook-up you will need.

I had to plug in my sound bar to the HEADPHONE jack of the TV. Try that and see if it doesn"t work for you too.

get a samsung sound bar... or get a receiver and klipsch speakers and connect them to your tv...just like what I did. It's a home theatre.

Can't say that I have, I have mine hooked to a yamaha sound bar as well. I would suggest checking your cabling, something may not be making a good connection.

I THINK this is the answer; On most current Samsung TVs, if your television has audio out jacks, you can not connect speakers directly to them. Instead, you must connect the audio out jacks to a standard stereo amplifier or receiver, which in turn are attached to a set of speakers. I have mine hooked up with a Sony receiver and speakers. Samsung has a customer service number 1-888-899-7604. They can tell you for sure.

you're not looking for what your tv can input, you want the output for the TV. In case your TV still doesn't have an optical output then the sound bar has the analog inputs on the back. If you don't have an optical output (there should be a small, square hole with a red glowing light that shows that it is an optical out) then your set is outdated or a very cheap TV. If you don't have the optical out then the sound bar would not be beneficial since the analog input does not use the sub-woofer. Here is the manual to see what can go where. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/ephox/StaticFiles/PUSA/Files/Home/SP-BS23W_Owners_Manual_English_Nov_14_2013.pdf

Unless your tv has the old audio out jacks (red white av) you have to plug it into your cable box or DVD player. I had the same problem and I had to plug it into my cable box audio out jacks. Most newer tv's don't have those jacks anymore. They have the optical audio out jack which I'm not sure this sound bar has. Hope that helps.
