My reading is that your TV MUST have an analog audio output (red and white RCA jacks) or else you need to buy a digital to analog converter. Correct?

It certainly plugs into the standard audio socket, not just the RCA jacks, and I must say on behalf of my parents this is a truly life changing piece of kit. Just to expand on that using the standard audio socket does cut the speakers off (on their TV) I suspect had we used the alalog outputs the speakers would still work alongside the headphones.

Yes, it does require a red and white RCA jack. We have satellite, so the TrueDio Ears plug into the satellite receiver.

Make sure the audio source connect to the tv is not out putting 5.1 audio or surround audio. Make sure everything connected to the tv, is sending 2 channel audio only and the converter will convert digital to analog with no static.

Depends on what type of AUDIO OUTPUT jack(s) are on the TV. Some have 2 RCA's (like mine) and some have a single jack (if mini, then this is what you need). Some TV's (like mine) have both.

If your TV is NOT set up for digital, and you can find this on your remote if it says A/D, (analogue, digital), then yes, you will need a converter. Spend as much money on this as you can afford because there is a lot of junk. I know because I bought a cheap one for the kitchen TV. I hope this helps. Terry

I don't have mine hooked up to a Smart TV. I did not have the regular connection on my TV as most did, very limited including no option for RCA. I had mine hooked up from my Television Audio Out, headphone jack to RCA Jack input on the unit. You have to kind of look around for how you want to connect it to your TV First. This is not made for modern Televisions unless you do your homework and procure the correct wires ahead of time. Mine was solved with a trip to Radio Shack.

Depends on your TV if you have a newer one that has a digital receiver you do not need a converter. If you TV is older and has a analog receiver you will need a converter.

Look for a digital cord in the box and see if you have a digital sound output hole. Ie look on the bottom of your tv for something that says "digital audio out" to connect the digital audio cord from the base to the tv. If you don't have that, look in same area for something that says "audio right" and "audio left" or it might say "audio R" and "audio L" then plug in your yellow and white cord to the connectors and other end of cord goes to your tv ears base. No wires are connected from the tv ears to the base as they are wireless. Hope this helps you out.

They have to be hooked up to speaker terminals on an amplifier or receiver. Not sure that your TV has the power or connection to connect directly. I would connect the audio outputs to a receiver or if you are using HDMI to a receiver, just connect them to the receiver.

You need an audio output jack. Either it is the Audio out on your TV or it is the Audio out from your Cable box/DVR/VCR/AUX or Stereo Aux out that is connected to you TV.

Unless you want your audio to go to a source other than your TV... like a 5.1 stereo setup. And in that case, you'll probably want to use the digital optical or digital coaxial audio output over RCA cables (unless your stereo doesn't support that).

Dear, yes, you need to buy the TV tuners, but please kindly note that this is only for analog TV, so you need check if you do have the signal for analog TV locally.

Alot of older TV's don't have any red & white RCA inputs ,so you will need an adapter that you can plug into the TV & still have 2 RCA plugs on the end so that you can hook up your 'phones to this the older TV . If you look around in the Amazon store and find a Y-adapter that has a headphone plug into two RCA plugs .

The red and white cables aren't digital. That's the analog rca cables. Switch the soundbar to the "aux input" on the remote. If you wanted to use the digital input you would have to connect the tv to the sound at with a digital optical(toslink) cable. Hope this helps!

It depends on your TV. This only received Digital signal via air. If you have a new TV that is capable of getting both analog & digital channels - this is all you need. Clear, crisp reception. But for older TV that only get analog channels - you still need a digital converter.

No - you would need the opposite conversion device, that is, HDMI to RCA Audio/Video. Assuming it works as advertised, you might still be unhappy with the results. Regardless of the source, a standard-definition TV can't produce a high-definition display.

1 RCA analog Video but no L/R analog Audio, 1 coaxial digital audio for home receivers/amplifiers, 1 HDMI for digital Video and Audio. If your TV does not have an HDMI connector, a low-cost HDMI to RCA analog L/R Audio converter can be purchased.
