will sound bar volume be controlled along with tv volume

No - It has it's own Remote. Unless you can program the Soundbar into the Remote you are using for the TV but this is normally not possible with typical remotes.

Yes, the TV remote can adjust the sound volume, ONLY if the soundbar is operating. The soundbar produces great audio, but this product is not very reliable. Mine worked very well for the first year, now getting sound from it takes a tremendous amount of time & patience and luck. The main issue appears, to me, to be a major conflict in the VieraLink software or hardware. Good Luck!

Yes. The sound bar is a must in order to get the best sound quality from your TV. It works great and easy to hook up.

Yes, the sound bar uses the audio optical output or the analog output (RCA connectors) from the tv for the sound source.

If the TV has a 3.5mm headphone input you can use a " 3.5mm to dual rca audio adapter" and control the volume with the TV

Yes, but you need to know that how to disable the volume control on you TV first, otherwise your boths system will turn up & down together. Good Luck!

Yes. There is a way to connect it with the remote, but I did not do it that way. I use the remote from the TV to set the sound level and then use my cable remote for sound adjustment.

No. Since external speakers are connected, the tv volume control does not work any more. Hope this helps.

When you connect the sound bar to the TV the volume is controlled by the remote for the sound bar.

No and I wish it could. My soundbar can but the Sangean only does volume control

I'm not very technical and had someone else hook this up for me.I have cable TV. Before I purchased this soundbar, I was using the cable remote to control everything, including volume. The volume and channel change on the TV remote doesn't work when set up this way.After the soundbar was hooked up, the TV remote was still off line for volume and channel changing. I can control the volume by both the cable remote and the small remote that came with the soundbar.Sorry...that's the best I can tell you.

If you connect the sound bar to a TV via the included Optical Cable, that will NOT mute the TV's speakers. When connected via Optical Cable you need to lower the speaker volume to zero or press "Mute" on the TV remote, then control the volume thru the Sound Bar's remote...If you want the convenience of controlling ALL TV functions with a single remote, use the Headphone output on the TV to connect to the "Portable" input jack on the Sound Bar, via a double-ended male 3.5mm stereo cable. (Search on Amazon for ASIN: B0002ZPJZO.) Set the TV & Sound Bar volume level to no more than "50" and control the TV volume using only the TV remote thereafter.

I don't know. The controls are fairly simple when connecting speakers to a media source. If the Vizio soundbar will "act" like a source, it's possible the Sykik system could pair up that way.

Yes it does allow sound as well. If sound does not come right away, go to sound settings and make sure the output is your TV

I bought the speakers for my mother-in-law (who's losing her hearing). I believe she uses the remote that comes with soundbar to control the volume. However, this is an analog device that plugs into the audio-output jack on the back of the TV, which you might use to listen with headphones. Therefore, the audio output from the jack should be controllable with the TV remote. How else would you control the headphone volume? Hope this helps.

Yes, It has its own volume control on the back of the unit. It is hooked into our Vizo Sound Bar, so I set the controlson the back of the Subwoofer on meduim and then control the overall sound volume thru the Vizio Soundbar Remote.works great!!

No you will need to use the remote on the sound bar. I have not found a configurable remote that adjusts it other than the one it comes with. Besides you would not want audio coming from the TV speakers and the sound bar as it would sound terrible. What I do is set the TV sound at zero and just adjust volume via the sound bar control.

Yes. There is a 1/8 inch headphone jack on the front of this box and a volume control knob for it. The TV volume can be completely down, and your headphone volume will be independantly controlled by this unit's volume knob.
