Can I plug this into my Onkyo or Denon receiver or does it have to go straight into the TV?

Hi Julie, I'm not sure about a connection between your Onkyo or Denon receiver. I suggest you pose this question to the support folks at Kinivo. Their number is 855-454-6486, and their hours are Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm Pacific Time.

I just bought this unit, so I can understand the question. It is really quite simple. There are three HDMI inputs and one HDMI output on the Onkyo HT-S5100 (also tons of other RCA, etc. inputs, no problem there!). The HDMI output feeds into the TV, of course. But I found I needed to connect a cable or an optical cable to the back of the TV in order to feed the audio back into the Onkyo amplifier. Now EVERYTHING sounds great!

You can actually plug into either the (7/8) or the (2TR). I would plug into the (7/8) so you can control the bass/treble etc, and you can get more volume. Unless if you want to control everything from your receiver then plug into the 2TR. So from your TV go out to the board into the inputs (7/8) or (2TR). Then (Rec Out) into your receiver, usually to the (Aux) but any input should do. I'm guess you're setting up a karaoke system because if you wanted your TV connected to your speakers then you would just plug straight into your receiver. If you do decide to get a powered amp to plug in instead of your receiver you'll get better sound quality IMO. Hope this helps you.

I am sorry, I do not understand the question....inputs to inputs???? it should be a non-powered output from the onkyo to an input of the EQ. I do not understand what you are trying to accomplish here.....sorry.

There are 5 ways to input: coaxial, optical, 1/8" analog, USB, and Bluetooth. From what you describe, you should only need one connection from the tv (presumably coax or optical). All of the other components send sound to the tv and the tv will send it to the Onkyo.

Read the manual. You must select source. Call Onkyo if need be.mine works fine

We took the receiver out and hooked it up to our TV. It will hook directly to an audio source. Not sure about plugging it into a DVD player, but will plug in to the television the DVD is connected to.

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).

You need a receiver that does HDMI Audio Decoding, which until recently has only been availabe in upper-echelon receivers. Most recently the Onkyo 605/605 and comparable Yamaha's and Denons do decode 5.1 and Dolby True HD / DTS Master Audio. If a receiver is labelled pass-through that means it won't be able to split off the audio from the HDMI signal and will just give it to the TV, and you'll have to use a separate digital optical or digital coaxial cable to send to the receiver from your DVD, DVR, Blu-ray, etc. Sucks doesn't it?

I have a HD TV and was able to hook it up direct without a converter box. If its an older TV you would need a converter box.

It should work. I have it hooked to a Denon receiver of about the same size and capability.

Probably not. This is a bare wire system and is intended to be connected to a receiver's speaker outputs. It does not have any intermediate connection logic or processor unit. Speakers only. I paired mine with an onkyo 7.2 surround receiver on amazon for $249.99. You can then connect with HDMI or component cables from your TV to the receiver.

You need an RCA to phono cable. You plug it into the ear phone hole on the apple device and select AUX on the receiver. Otherwise, buy the separate apple compatible addition for the onkyo receiver.

You need a receiver or amplifier. Use the HDMI or Digital out or Optical out from TV to a receiver/amp and then hook up the speakers to the amp. Directly from TV, it won't work.

The receiver has 2 subwoofer outputs. You can use either of them with an RCA cable to plug your subwoofer. I did exactly that with my own. If one day in the future you think you need a second subwoofer, you can use the other Onkyo output to plug it.

No, not directly. I would use an adapter, or just cut the speaker cable at the RCA plug and use just the blank cables. The Onkyo merits very good speakers though. I consider it an excellent receiver and I use professional Tannoy Studio Monitors with it.

Yes, I ran it that way with my Denon receiver for an extra pair. It has RCA inputs in the back.
