do I need any cables that are not supplied to connect to a Directv receiver? I have RCA digital and analog audio out.

I would think the cables that come with it would work. However, why would you want to hook it to the directv receiver rather than the television? That way if you also have a DVD player (or something else) hooked to the tv, you can hear that through them as well.

your Setup box would need to have composite or HDMI ouput, this you just connect it to one of the inputs of the Receiver, if you still use the old type of analog cable were you receive only a coaxial connection you would need a TV or VCR or Cable turner to pass signal from coaxial to a composite output.

Forgot to mention...of course you'll need to have speakers to plug into the receiver as well...but that goes without saying. RCA cables work fine from the speakers to the receiver, but I like to make my own. :)

This TV does not have either an analog audio output or a headphone jack. One (or both) of those would be handy to have. The TV sound out is via TosLink, which is an optical digital signal. I used a TosLink optical cable and an optical/digital to analog sound converter and two RCA cables to connect to my amplifier. The total cost of those items was about $50. Not a big deal, but just an advance notice that you really do need the cables and D/A converter, because the sound from your existing home theater or stereo amplifier and speakers will be needed. If you have a more modern amplifier with optical digital input, only the TosLink cable will be necessary. This TV does not have either an analog audio output or a headphone jack.

If you have an "old" reciever that uses RCA inputs you will need a NeweR reciever that utilizs a HDMI cable. I said the same thing, then bought a newer reciver 3 years ago . hope this helps.

In the box is a pair of RCA plugs for an analog TV plus an optical connector for digital. Use whichever one is compatible to your TV.

Easy. All you need is to connect the RCA output jacks to the input jacks in the back of your amplifier. Only need the RCA cable and connect to Aux or CD input. There is a digital output in the back and if you have it you can connect the digital out to the digital in on you amplifier. All you'll need is a digital optical cable.

Yes, you just need to use a rca to mini cable on one end and a mini to rca cable on the other. I believe these are included in the box, but can't remember for sure.

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.

A separate amp is needed. The audio out from your tv is to connect that amp via rca or a/v cables. I used a fiber optic cable to connect my tv to the amp, but it is a newer hd model.

You don't need a digital converter for most new TV's. The RCA antenna will plug right into your cable input on your TV. You will need to go into the menu under setup and run a scan under antenna.

No, you will need to supply your own cable to connect to your amp or receiver, either coaxial or toslink.

Yes - there is no need for any other cable. Just be sure to get the preamp as close to the antenna as possible. Be sure to use a top quality coaxial cable, and keep its length under 100 ft. If you are going to use a splitter, for more than 1 TV, that can be in the house.

My guess is no, If you look closely at all of the pictures of the system, it actually shows all of the cables. The system itself is powered so hooking it up to your receiver if it's not powered shouldn't be a problem. I got the system for my son, so I never actually had it here to look at, but in the pictures it shows 2 RCA cables so I'm assuming you can hook it up to anything that has a line out.

The receiver does handle audio from HDMI sources. There is no need for optical or coaxial digital connections to get audio from HDMI sources.

I purchased high speed HDMI cables. I have my XBOX, PS3, and my DirecTv all running into the Subwoofer then I use one HDMI cable out to the TV and use the Subwoofer as my source of what device I am using. You will need a total of 4 HDMI. If you are not doing 3D then you don't need the higher speed HDMI cables. If your cable box does not support HDMI then I am not sure what to do.
