I don't know what you need, but you don't have a receiver, you just have a monitor. Google it.

No. It has a port for subwoofer cable, and jacks for regular speaker wire, either way you'll need to hardwire it to your receiver.

No unless you buy a separate preamp. I don't know any new receivers that do.

You would need to plug in the power usb cable or a ac adapter to give it the juice it needs to power the receiver.

It's not a receiver... its an LNB which needs to be powered by a receiver. The receiver sends the correct power to the LNB 13v or 18v depending on the polarity.

It doesn't have a built in receiver. You need to plug a basic radio into it

Hi Jen,No, it needs to be connected to a receiver/amplifier. Thanks. >Joffrey

You do indeed need a Sirius receiver. The manual literally states "there is a Sirius jack for the SiriusConnect tuner (sold separately)."

This just sends out the signal. You need to check the instructions on the existing receiver you have.

No need for additional receiver. It output video ntsc signal and as long as your TV can accept that you should be fine.

Only if you are near AC power. If you aren't near AC power, you need to get the model that has a battery powered receiver.

The answer to the question is YES, however, there's no need to connect to a receiver since it has a built-in amplifier.I can't see the rationale. The component/TV output can be used to connect to a receiver (The Yellow will be the Video signal), but have in mind that the output already comes out with power, you may have distorted sound, no sound, and you can even damage your receiver since it is not designed that way.Hope you find this information helpful and feel free to ask me in the future if I can be of any assistance. Enjoy your new unit!!!

No you do not need a receiver. The jbl is a receiver. But you do need hdmi cable or stereo coax to connect the tv to the jbl to get tv sound out of the jbl.

No, it doesn't have to be used with a receiver because it is self-powered, but as Joseph S. already pointed out, it would work the best if your sound bar has a subwoofer output.

You need a TV connected so that your receiver can have a signal. Should be fine when you get your TV connected. I have seen that message before.

No, u need an optical out from the TV to connect to the Sonos Sound Bar. Do not need a receiver .
