Are you able to switch to the internal TV speakers (from the headphones) without disconnecting the headphone from the TV?

Yes, the headphones are independent of the internal speakers. You can turn the volume all the way down on the TV and adjust the volume on the headset.

Absolutely. U can use either or both without disconnecting the headphone base from TV.

That's a function of the TV and how you connect to it. If the TV mutes the audio out in lockstep with the speakers, then the headphones will mute with the TV.

Hi Dipesh Shretha, apparently using both optical and headphone out on the same time will not work. As per settings on the TV's External Sound Output Settings, you can only choose 1 between the headphones or on the external speakers (optical) of the TV. Hope this helps. -Ely

Yes you can. The Speakers come with the corresponding cables for the TV input.

yes you can as long as your tv has analog out for audio, you can go into tv menu and turn off tv speakers then use vol control from tv to control sound.

No, I haven't quite figured out how to do that. I can switch from the sound bar speakers to to the TV speakers but I don't know how to have them both on at the same time.

Sorry I can't help you with that one. I only use the speaker to connect to the TV (via the headphone jack).

You could get a DAC (Digital to Analog Conversion) Box but that would mean three conversions from the TV to your Headphones and that might provide more of an delay (echo) with the TV speakers than you would be willing to put up with.

Yes, just connect a common audio cable to the "Audio Out" on your TV and to the headphone base. The cable comes with the headphones. Its very easy to install and works great! You can turn the volume all the way down on the TV and use the volume control on the headphones. The sound is far superior to "TV Ears".

Yes they can. In fact I had the headphones on last night and forgot to mute the TV for my husband and he could still hear the TV. So my answer would be yes. You have to mute the TV if you do not want the sound coming out of the TV when you use the headphones.

Most if not all TVs made in the last decade or so do not have headphone outputs (like on a stereo reciever which will mute the speakers). Instead they have line outputs which you would use with this unit and are independant of the speakers. You can still mute the speakers while listening to the headphones but it's not automatic: you just need to hit the mute button on your TV remote.

Yes. I often use the headphones to hear all the dialog on some drama shows while my wife listens through the TV speakers. The volume on the TV can be adjusted separately from the headset that has its own volume controls. You can even mute the TV while listening on the headset.

Partially, do not have the input button, no way to change between audio sources

No, it does not cut off the tv speakers. You can still use them with your headphones plugged in and in use.

Yes by selecting menu, then sound. You can opt for internal or external speakers

Yes, and the equalizer and Left-Right balance settings on the TV also are passed on to the external speakers. This can be a bit of problem, though, if you sometimes use the internal speakers, and sometimes external speakers, since they don't have separate settings. I find I have to turn the bass way up and treble way down to make the internal speakers tolerable, but then need to change back to more normal settings when using my decent external 2.1 speakers.

yes..you can control you're own volume in the headset while the tv is muted.
