Can you use sound without the projector?

Yes! Luckily my friend has it so I could ask her before I bought it. You can run both together or each separately. The timer is also optional. :-)

Yes you can either use the sound alone, the projector alone or both at the same time.

Yes, you can use your Bluetooth speakers. And the projector should be compatible with your display.

yeah but its just a monitor so there will be no sound coming from it. you have to use an external source for the sound. oh for the hdmi you can just buy a $5 adapter from walmart or some other place. disregard my last comment!

Yes you can run the projector without the battery installed, my battery stopped taking a charge after 6 months.

Yes you can, we also do it all the time. For outdoor movie watching though, I would definitely reccomend hooking up some awesome sounding external speakers. This projector works VERY well for the price!!

You may hook your projector up via HDMI if you have an HDMI input on it or simply use it as a monitor for which RCA outputs are provided. The receiver drives your speakers directly through speaker wires. HDMI audio output is really only used when the receiver is turned off and your projector cannot use HDMI audio anyway if I understand you correctly. Hope this helps.

Yes, and it sound great. Actually, that how I installed it. Just be sure you don't see movies of hear music with the speakers of the projector at the top (focus on the home theater), because their are small, and they can make strange sounds.

Most projectors don't. Its simply more efficient/logical to run HDMI/Coax/Optical to your sound receiver from the source, then video signal from receiver to projector. This completes the setup in one shot.

Yes you have to hook up your speakers separately. You can hook it up to the projector.

You will need your own, separate sound system. Product gets a 70% grade from me. Screen not white enough to give optimum picture from projector.

I play my projector thru my computer. My computer is capable of surround sound. I just tell it to pump the sound out thru the computer instead of the hdmi.

According to the user manual this is possible. I have found that if using the projector outside, it is much loader if the back of the unit is facing a structure (i.e. house or wall). Otherwise it does appear to be harder to hear. Other than that I have no complaints about the projector itself. It has been an excellent product overall. We plan on a Christmas celebration next month and I will be stopping into BestBuy to get advice from the Geek Squad on the best option for external speakers.

You would need a surroundsound stereo receiver in order to get your surroundsound. The projector does not provide a audio 3.5 mm output. If you use HDMI or RCA connections on the back of the projector the sound will only come out of the projector speaker.

Is say so as long as your projector can hook up to a speaker system. Sound will be your issue

Sadly no. I had to use HDMI to connect it to my tv to get sound. You can also connect your own speakers.

Yes... You'll need a projector as well. Epsom makes the best projectors from my experience.

Yes, you can still use the headphone jack. The projector has built in speakers that suck, not even as loud/clear as the iphone 4s' built in speaker.
