My TV don't have any out for sound in any way. I am planning to hook my Roku 3/Apple TV to the sound bar and from sound bar to TV. Will it work ?

If your tv doesn't have any alternate sound out option a sound bar wont work sir. You have to have coax (red, white,) cable ports minimum. Best are hdmi and optical ports. As long as you have something from your Tele to the shins system all others will come through. (Royku etc)

Yes this should work. The sound bar has 3 HDMI cable inputs and 1 HDMI output. Just hook the Rodu 3 dongle and your Apple TV to the input HDMI on the Sound Bar and then the HDMI output on the sound bar to the HDMI input on your TV. As long as your TV has HDMI this should work. The only thing that I am not sure of is the Roku 3. It doesn't use an HDMI cable but a dongle that it transmits to. It should work but I don't know for sure.

This works seamlessly with Apple TV, I don't see why it wouldn't work with Roku also...

J, I have it behind an AppleTv box via the HDMI output. It extracts the audio via the RCA outputs (the audio is still sent through the HDMI cable). It is not hardware dependent, it will work behind a DVD player (tried it and it worked) and will work with Roku box via the HDMI output. The Bose system has to have RCA audio in and it should be no problem. Dave

Use a audio optical cable if PS4 has it, or run the sound from PS4 to TV and from TV to soundbar. The latter is how I have my PS3 hooked up

Do you have a cable box? If so, connect the sound bar to your cable box. When you are using the sound bar for your TV put your TV on mute and the sound will come out via the sound bar - That's the instructions tech support gave me and it worked perfect! Good Luck

Once your TV has RCA-type outputs and you have a 2-RCA jack to 3.5mm (male) cable, this sound bar will work. This is the set-up I currently have and is quite adequate for my needs, I set up the sound bar above the TV so I get nice sound spread.

I tried an optical cable and could not get it to work. I ended up going with an HDMI cable that was ARC compatible and haven't had any issues with sound while watching tv. When I watch Netflix or hbo go I sometimes have the volume cut out but I think that is the app

if you are not already using the hdmi slot on the roku to connect to your tv it should work !!! your tv should be connected tou your avr so that everything that plays thru the tv will play thru the surround sound !

Unless your tv has the old audio out jacks (red white av) you have to plug it into your cable box or DVD player. I had the same problem and I had to plug it into my cable box audio out jacks. Most newer tv's don't have those jacks anymore. They have the optical audio out jack which I'm not sure this sound bar has. Hope that helps.

Hi, As long as your TV has a ( Audio Out ) connection you should be able to connect this sound bar. The Sound bar has a Small ( Audio In ) connector, This type of connector looks like the single poll sized connector used on a lot of computer sound in jacks. If your TV has a RCA type of ( Audio Out ) connections =if it has two connections,( a Red and a White ) audio out jacks like my tv has you can buy an adaptor cable that has the two Red and White RCA plugs on one end that will plug into your TV and the the small single plug jack on the other end that will plug into this sound bar. This is how I set it up with my TV. The sound bar works really good with very good loud and clear sound. It was well worth the money in my opinion. I hope this helps you with your decision.

If your tv has the side RCA pug ins like most tv's you can get it to work. I own one of these sound bars if I had it to do over I would spend a little more and get a better sound bar.

I tried didn't work. Tried to patch Apple TV and Netflix through single optical input using this device. Didn't work. Sorry.

Not sure. My HDMI carries all my audio from my Roku. IDK if that is helpful. Sorry.

You have to hook it up directtly to the tv with the Aux left and right, unless your tv does blue tooth syncing? If your tv does that then your tv will have to find the Craig Sound Bar as the sound bar does not search and find other devices

what you need to do is get a RCA to headphone jack if your TV have headphone jack. or a optical to audio converter if not the sound will not come out.

i know the tv would need a usb input on it... the speakers come with a little blue tooth part that needs to go into the device u are using to make a connection.... there is also an option to connect from speaker to tv with a headphone style jack (this would not be cordless though)i use it with my imac

If you connect the bluray to the tv, the sound output from the tv to the sound bar should work.
