Does it have a place for external speakers to be connected? I have speakers mounted to my wall and need to connect them for surround sound.

Basic answer - No. I believe this unit is designed to function just with its own 2 speakers in "stereo" mode. There is no mention of surround sound such as 5.1 or 7.1 that I could find. You might try a "parallel" hook-up with the amp outputs going to both the Yamaha speakers and the appropriate left or right channels of your wall mount speakers - BUT - be careful to verify that the combined loads / impedances, etc are ok (see specs section of Yamaha owners manual & specs for your wall speakers) or you might damage the amps and all the speakers involved. Also this would only give you more stereo output with all the speakers, not 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound. Try your Yamaha with just its own speakers and turn up the volume a little - this might work ok for you without the wall speakers. Regards, John

I hear the sound through my external speakers, which I configured it this way. You can use the built-in speakers or both. I hope this information helps. If you have any questions, please let me know Thanks. KRM

No it doesn't. The unit has a built in speaker, and you can plug in an external speaker from the external jack in the back. External speaker Sold separately.

Yes, you may want external speakers. The speakers are O.K. But, sounds tinny.

It does not come with external speakers and I found it needs to be connected to an amplifier which would have speakers. It works great that way but does not work well if you wanted to use it alone.

Hi John, I do not see any other system connections for additional speakers - the speaker connection wires are set in a disk and have to go into the unit a certain way too, so, would not be able to add to the ones provided - it does put out very good sound with an adequate equalizer to adjust treble and bass... and... sound does not get distorted when volume is way up - - I think it is a pretty good stereo for it's size...

This soundbar is meant to be placed below the TV especially if your mounting it on the wall. The speakers are positioned to accommodate sound coming up and straight when placed below the tv. It won't sound that great placed above.

No you do not need external speakers. However, you may want to have them, since the tv is small and therefore so are the internal speakers.

The back of the unit has an opening for "bass" so you probably would not want to wall mount it. And it doesn't have any mounting holes.

No provision is made for wall mounting. The speaker has a rear port, which you wouldn't want to block plus the cable connectors. However, I mounted mine with "VideoSecu One Pair of Side Clamping Speaker Mounting Bracket with Tilt and Swivel for Large Surrounding Sound Speakers MS56B 3LH." About $35.00 on Amazon.com. A low cost compared to the price of these excellent speakers. I'd recommend getting the matching JBL center speaker. The sounds, when combined with a 15" subwoofer are super. With these heavy speakers, I used wood screws to mount them to the bracket, since I didn't feel secure with just the clamping action. There are holes beneath and sides of the brackets ready for screws. Make sure you use heavy lag bolt to mount the brackets to a stud, not just the dry wall.

The way I connected my rear (surround) speakers were to the surround amplifier that I placed in the rear of my room. The instructions are indicated in the manual. If you have any other questions, give Sony a call!

The rear speakers have a round threaded hole in the back if you want to use it but they come with wall mounts.

Luke, I don't know. I haven't tried to hook up any external speakers. Sorry

Not that I know of because I was looking for sound outputs for external speakers and there was nothing available

No, but there is a hole in the back such that you can screw a bolt in the wall and hang the speaker on the bolt. Two holes for the center speaker. Works great for me, but not interchangeable with other speakers.

Yes...I connected my exterior speaker system through the audio jack. The built in speaker was of poor quality so, IMHO, you really need the extra speakers. In fact, USB computer speakers were even a good improvement!
