Cable Box or TV I am not a techie person at all, so please don't laugh too hard at my question. With the Bose Solo TV Sound system, does the cable go into the TV or the cable box?

Your cable service's cable goes into your cable box (Connection 1). Your cable box then feeds your TV (Connection 2). Your TV then feeds the Bose system (Connection 3).

Thanks........you answered my question. I should have referred to the audio connection. Before going into the BOSE, did it originate from the cable box or TV?

I have a Bose surround sound system. Just a basic one with the 2 speakers and the sub. Works fantastic though! Love the TV. I have the Disney WOW BluRay disc coming today to help me calibrate the tv correctly. There are so many options with these new tvs it's hard to get them just right.... or at least it's hard to KNOW you have it just right.

This is for connecting multiple INPUTS to one reciever or one output to multiple receivers. So if your Bose has optical input and your Cable box has optical output this can help. But this product has a lot of issues with reliablilty.

Do you have a cable box? If so try going from the cable box to the sound bar..

No. It did not work with my tv or cable box. The connection cable will not work with the tv and cable, it was not suitable for my tv Samsung flat screen tv , nowhere to plug the speakers. You might need to buy an adjustment ??!!!. Tablets, phones and stereos and maybe computers. I bought it for the tv and I couldn't use it. I did read the comments from other customers so I thought it will go with my tv but it didn't so I am not sure how they made it work

Does a cable to hook into my TV come with this product? The Bose Solo TV sound system?

If the cable box has coax out then yes it will send the coax signal which has audio to your tv; however to send audio to your stereo you will have to use an audio out source from your TV...like an headphone out. The belkin does not have audio outputs...only audio in, coax in, and svideo in.

Hi! Ok this one was a VGA CABLE And the Audio plug in jack cord. In order to have the volume go in from your TV you MUST have the audio plugged in also. MOST Flat Screen TVs that have a VGA also has a plug in for audio plug... just like a headphone jack. Usually close by the VGA cord.

The sound bar works with an optical cable (supplied) or analog cables. My Tv did not have an optical out but my cable box did and it works best when you turn the tv speakers off and let the sound bar do its thing.

Hmm, well the tv is only really a monitor and wouldn't have anything to do with sound in this case right? Wouldn't you need to get the dolby sound from the broadcast source like your cable or directv box? e.g. connect your audio optical cord to the cablebox directly & plug directly into your HT setup.

If you have a sound system i.e. Stereo component you should not have any problem because sound should go directly to your speakers not on the TV try to avoid if possible not to use your TV for sound and hook up your Grand Videoke thru your sound system and if you used your sound system make sure to turn down all your sound TV , Cable Box to "0" setting that way your not getting any echo feedback only your sound system should be operating by it self if you don't have a stereo component just invest in one rather than having problem with the feedback sound hope everything works out fine with your system let us know if this help If you have a sound system i.e. Stereo component you should not have any problem because sound should go directly to your speakers not on the TV try to avoid if possible not to use your TV for sound and hook up your Grand Videoke thru your sound system and if you used your sound system make sure to turn down all your sound TV , Cable Box to "0" setting that way your not getting any echo feedback only your sound system should be operating by it self if you don't have a stereo component just invest in one rather than having problem with the feedback sound hope everything works out... » Read More If you have a sound system i.e. Stereo component you should not have any problem because sound should go directly to your speakers not on the TV try to avoid if possible not to use your TV for sound and hook up your Grand Videoke thru your sound system and if you used your sound system make sure to turn down all your sound TV , Cable Box to "0" setting that way your not getting any echo feedback only your sound system should be operating by it self if you don't have a stereo component just invest in one rather than having problem with the feedback sound hope everything works out fine with your system let us know if this help « Show Less

I can't think of any reason why it can't fit in any place other than the TV. The connection I used was the optical cable that appeared to be a couple feet long. As long as you can connect the optical cable or other cables of the Bose to the TV. It should work fine. It appears that where you put the unit in the room will affect the sound. As I indicated, we put ours in a corner which emphasized the base. Move it where you want it and see how it sounds. We're happy with the Bose Solo now that we could reduce the base. I hope that this helps. Art

Thanks for your question. There is no specific set up for individual cable systems. If you are connected via an HDMI and you have an HD box, I would have your cable company come out and check it or replace the box.

If the TV supports the HDMI audio return channel function, the sound of the TV is input to the receiver via the HDMI terminal and you do not have to connect an optional digital cable. Info from step 1 of the set up manual.. Paul Marks

i just spoke with Bose rep and she said yes, you can hook up your i pod thru the tv's red/white audio input and the sound will come out through the bose speakers!

You should be able to plug in a pair of headphones into the TV and be able to hear fine. If plugged in all the way, there should be no "noise" coming out of the Television itself. We currently have normal speakers plugged into ours and no sound comes out of the TV speakers, only the speakers plugged in.
