Do I need a separate receiver to use it with my TV? I have nothing except a TV

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 separate receiver is reqiured. The BD 100 is a receiver and Blu-Ray combo.

No, you do not need an AV receiver. I have Blueray DVD and my FIOS settop going to the unit and the HDMI going to TV with ARC and it works great.

You should be able to hook up a TV using the 'AUX' input. Note the Aux input on the receiver side is a 1/8" stereo headphone style cable, so the appropriate cable would be needed. Also the receiver runs on household current.

Unless the TV has external speaker drivers (unlikely), you'll need an amplifier hooked up to a TV sound output (which is the way mine are hooked up to a TV).

Hello ! Sorry but I can't tell you if it would work without a receiver,the receiver is a decoder and I don't it would work without.....

Also the receiver you will require is part of the package. Take it out of the box, hook to TV as instructed. Place speakers and your set:).

You can do a couple things. Buy an adapter for RCA like you said, or try to go right into your receiver. If you have a cable box, then you could pull the audio directly from there instead of through the tv. What i do is pull the audio through my home theatre system instead of through the tv.

Yes, the sound bar must have sub-out. If not then you'll have to use a receiver and connect the sound bar and sub. Which is the way I have it set up

You need a receiver or amplifier. Use the HDMI or Digital out or Optical out from TV to a receiver/amp and then hook up the speakers to the amp. Directly from TV, it won't work.

I agree. All the new receivers require HDMI connections. If your TV does not have an HDMI connection for TV input then it will not work. The older TV's had the component cables (Red, Blue and Green).

As the other responses say, yes, you do need an Amp or a receiver. Good Luck

you will need to buy a RF Link for each additional TV and connect the receiver to it. So you will only need one of the transmitters, which you will attach to the TV that's on your cable or satellite box.In my setup, I have 2 satellite boxes, so I have a transmitter on each of them. My third TV has 1 receiver and I use the switches on the back of the receiver to choose which transmitter to "listen" to. When I add another TV, I will put my unused receiver on it and set it up the same way.

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

I connected to a receiver which is run to the TV. Also had to buy a center speaker and woofer to complete the surround sound system.

The RCA's are only input on the TV. The only audio output it has is a Digital Audio Output which is coaxal, so your receiver needs a digital audio coaxal input.

You only need the playbar to play sonos through the tv without a receiver. Otherwise, a bridge alone will allow you to play music through the speakers.
