Is the analog audio out connection variable with TV volume or does it require adjusting volume with the external amp?

I may be wrong, but it seems to me that the audio output is not controlled by the volume setting on the TV. I use the volume on the external receiver/amplifier. I have big speakers, so I set the sound on the TV to Mute and just use the big sound. I should add, I do this for Movies, I do not watch regular TV. It is pretty awesome for movies. I have 4 12" and 4 10" woofers, then mids, tweeters, and horns. So it is quite engulfing. Car races and airplanes have the sound going across the room. Makes one feel like they are in the middle of it.On another note, another person has color setting up on the comments, and I went in and set mine to these values, and wow, what a beautiful picture.

Since I don't use the TV speakers since I use a Bose surround system. I never could get the TV speakers to sound quite right. I do use Vivid picture mode and adjust.

There are two settings on the audio portion of this TV. One is 3D and the other has some other name from JVC. We have tried multiple combinations with these settings and eventually have turned them off and have an external sound bar for volume, with the audio on the TV off.

The 8 ohm speakers work fine (this is my second set), but they need an amplifier (driver) to make them work. You would have to check the technical manufacturers sheet that came with your TV to see if it what the power requirements are for external speakers. I'm using a Pioneer Elite amp and I can set the volume level of individuals speakers (surround sound)....but most TVs only have one set of external speaker jacks and it doesn't really solve your problem. You may want to check with Best Buy or some other store with someone who can discuss the specifics of your TV.

I have it plugged into the L/R (red/white) outputs of my cable box. I can turn the TV volume all the way down and my wife can control the volume on the headphone. Now I can read and not hear anything from the TV.

Setup the TV audio input to internal. Its probably using the HDMI Digital input from the A5000.

Yes to volume control the little pod seen in this photo controls system volume not just the subwoofer. And I don't see why you could not power with your TV assuming it has appropriate output.

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

You are almost certainly stuck with using the volume knob on the amplifier. Audio out from the TV is line-level and not subject to the TV's remote. The TV's headphone output may be subject to the TV's remote, but in some cases, such as my Panasonic TV, the headphone level is controlled from a separate menu item. Overall, you are not going to get a fully integrated experience unless you go with a sound bar that has its own remote control infrared receiver, or a full AV receiver setup which becomes the master source for all signals and has its own remote control.

No.Optical cable connection to TV or other source. Separate volume control.

Be aware that you wouldn't want to use this speaker system with a TV if that TVs external sound output level/volume is not adjustable from the remote. Some TVs have a fixed output so you should check your TVs manual.

I have had the Bravia EX400 for about a week and love it. But alas, it does not have variable audio output, only one fixed audio out. This is suprising given all the other options this TV offers. I resorted to using the fixed audio output to my Yamaha receiver. I control the volume with my Yamaha remote. This is definitely worth doing since the TV's speakers have subpar sound quality. I agree with you R. Illingworth-variable audio output should be a standard feature. (Sony does have variable output in more expensive models.)

Plug A/V cable from out put to input on the amp. That should work and provide you audio for the tv.

just figured this out myself. sounds weak, even when hooked up to a 50 watt per channel amp. volume is literally cut in half. forced to pump the stereo receiver up to twice or more. absolutely dismal, even with a receiver. note to self... going forward, any tv that doesn't have variable out, doesn't get into my shopping cart LOL.

The "Analog TV Sound" setting only affects sound output when watching cable or over-the-air broadcasts through the TV's own tuner. Other sources aren't affected and may need to have their own settings changed. If using an analog source, you may also want to check that both red and white RCAs are on the same input on the TV and that both are making a solid connection between the source device and TV. Please note also, if "SAP" is enabled while using the TV's tuner, audio will be in mono regardless of the "Analog TV Sound" setting. Hope this helps.

You can't adjust the volume/gain on this amp.You have to connect it to a receiver or preamp that controls the volume.

I have mine connected via hdmi and can use my tv remote to control volume. There is a slight delay between when the tv is turned on and when the sound bar turns on.

It should work fine for adjusting volume if you connect it via HDMI with the HDMI arc port on your tv. If you want to change sound settings, you'll have to use the original remote for the sound bar.
