My flatscreen tv doesn't have any audio output, not even a headphone jack. Will these work to add an external speaker of some sort?

I ran these from the audio out on my DVD player to the TV. Then ran regular audio cables from these to my stereo receiver which I have my external speakers hooked up to. Now I can play a CD in DVD player and bypass the TV all together. Would have to see the back of your TV.

See if your TV has audio outputs. You can then connect the speakers to the tv.

There are no external speaker outputs. There is an audio input. If you want to send an audio signal to this monitor and another source like external speakers, just splitthe signal before the input.

Yes, I think so, I have a small samsung flat TV, but I have my speakers to computer. On back of my TV, there is an " in" audio and also an " out" audio...I'm thinking you can just plug them into your TV. Hope this helps, but I'm not an expert to ask. hehe

Your first choice should be to use an HDMI cable which has both video and audio in the same cable. Most newer cable boxes and DVD/Blue-Ray players have this standard output. I bought this adapter for use in an audio system, so no experience with how it works with a flatscreen.

I doubt this will be much help, but I own these and have never needed cables for them. Ever. If your computer has the necessary outlet you should be good to go for headphones, etc. My brother owned a set and I saw how nice his sounded and decided then I could really use a better sound speaker for my laptop - I wish they could work with my TV as well! I hope this helped you somewhat. I found these to work very well and they were a welcomed change. Hope you enjoy yours too!

Yes, these speakers are a blurtooth device and they must be set up to communicate with another bluetooth device. If your TV is not a bluetooth device they will not work with it. If your TV has a USB port you may be able to find a bluetooth accessory to make it work.

Well I am not sure...I guess you could if your tv has the same connections that these speakers have. They connect using a USB poet and a small plug like you would have on a ear bud connection....hope this helps

Depends on the output of the tv if it has audio out ups the answere is yes. If they are tied to the tv volumn control you probably won't be happy. It should have independent audio out most likely RCA plugs

From one of the reviews, "Note that these speakers have a 3.5mm jack input which works fine for my iMac. They do not connect via a USB cable." A "3.5mm jack input" is what is commonly called a headphone jack. Cables with a headphone jack would be what is needed. Check your TV manual to see if the TV has a 3.5mm jack output and for the types of speakers your TV will accept. I'd also check the specs for the speakers to see if the speakers can handle the level of output from your TV. I admit knowing very little on this subject, but these speakers seem to me to be for desk top computers and laptops and such. A TV seems, to this amateur, to be a lot to ask of these speakers. You might also check the TV manufacturer's website for info. Here's a link to the speaker manufacturer's website. http://www.geniusnet.com/wSite/np?ctNode=116&mp=1

Teresa - these speakers are not self-powered in any way, nor do they include any wiring. These are meant to be connected to an amplifier or HI-FI receiver, not to a TV directly. However, if you plug your TV into a receiver, then you might be able to use these.

They do not work on mine. I've hooked it up with the headphone input and now with the digital audio out. If you use a component hook up, you may get sound from both.

I just got this email your answer is any headphones will work but you have to connect through a device that you can control the output sound level as there is no control on the tv to do that.

They don't "work" with much of anything. As long as the TV or PS3 has either a headphone jack or stereo output you can connect this, but again, these headphones are a waste of money.

They should be hooked to the audio outputs, whatever the color. If you only have a single audio output then use the adapter.

Yes... You may also want to look at Audio engine's A5... It is larger and powered as well . Check with your tv owner's manual on how to hookup external speakers

I really don't think it should. These speakers take in their audio signal (as well as power) through the USB. As far as I know, TVs won't have the drivers to support sound output through a USB port (those USB ports on TVs are usually for reading media files, and some times wireless adapters).
