Is there a way I can simply turn on the external receiver and get sound through the external speakers without a 6 count process with the remote?

Not to my limited knowledge no. I would recommend that you consult the manual online or contact the manufacturer directly... sorry.

I don't have any external speakers hooked up to the tv so I never tried. With my bg screen Mitsubishi it takes 4 clicks.

Not that I know of. One of my problems with this series of LG TV's (I have the 42" version) is that a lot of the functions are just too much trouble, including the one you mentioned. Closed caption is a another good example. You can't set it to come on automatically when you put the TV on mute, or even have a 1 or 2-step toggle on the remote to turn closed caption off and on. Sorry I couldn't give you a positive "how-to" in answer to your question.

Hi Notorious A.G.A, Did you succeed receiving sound from TV to external speakers using an optical cable? It doesn't seem to work for me. I'm using "External Speakers" setting in the TV with the receiver powered on. I hear nothing.

There's a switch on the back, switch it to internal speakers. Seems like you have it on "line-in" Hope this works

No, you can't do that on this receiver, in the way you could easily select "A Speakers" or "B Speakers" or "A

Try this On your remote down toward the bottom find the "surround" button. Click over till your screen shows "Multi Channel Stereo" that is the setting I put it on for all speakers to work.

I have surround sound and all audio including comes through my speakers by way of my receiver. Where or how would I hook these up?

Yes, you have to turn on the speakers manually. Remote is only for volume and refresh signal.

You don't need a receiver with this unit! It's self-amplified. Just plug it in to your TV via HDMI.Plug your other components in to the TV as well. At worst, you'll need to run a pair of RCA audio cables from the TV back to the audio input of the Sound Bar.Hope this helps

The rear panel only has outputs for 5 speakers and the sub-woofer. Adding remote speakers would require an external speaker switch.

You can't connect a receiver to the soundbar, unless the receiver has a line level output. Since this is an active soundbar, it's designed to be used without a receiver.

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

Not using a soundbar. Using a Yamaha RX-V375 AV receiver with Bose 701 speakers.

Try pressing the "A.F.D/2CH" button on the reciever remote. Try making sure the "pure direct" button on the reciever isn't on. If you have an hdmi cable connected to the tv you can access plenty of speaker and sound options if you press the "home" button on the remote. Hope this helps!!

Dear Joseph,Thanks for your inquiry. This speaker package needs to connect to a receiver for the speakers to receive sound. Of course, the receiver would then have a remote control. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

Just use speaker cable to hook up to receiver/amplifier. Speakers draw power from amplifier so no power cable needed.

This is a CD player with toslink s/pdif and -10dB RCA outputs. The unit cannot drive passive speakers directly. You would need a receiver or integrated amplifier or pre-amp/amplifier combination to use with external speakers unless the speakers are "active monitors". IF active monitors you would need a preamplifier or mixer. Hope this information helps
