We got a sound bar for our tv that uses the only audio-out (red & white male) jacks my husband needs for his headphones. Would this work?

I don't think the would work the plug on the Belkin doesn't fit that style jack. The plug you would need is referred to as an "RCA" type

I would think so if the jacks on the TV are 3.5mm. But for some reason I do not think that they are. Try plugging his headphones in the TV jack.

The sound bar audio out ports are larger than a standard headphone port, so it will not work.

Almost! You will need a digital to audio converter first......here is the one I bought.... Orei DA21X Premium Optical SPDIF/Coaxial Digital to RCA L/R Analog Audio Converter with 3.5mm Jack Support Headphone/Speaker Outputs You connect the "Toslink" cable that comes with the converter.......from the TV to the converter. Then you connect the RCA cable from the other end of the converter.....to your sound bar. It works very well......GT:)

Actually I'm using the optical audio output from my Sony tv to the optical input of the sound bar...not sure why it wouldn't work when using the red/white output from your tv into the soundbar...all I did was hook it up and turn my TV speaker off...make sure the blue light is lit up on the soundbar when powered up...

If the cable you are using is one black plug on one end and 2 plugs on the other, it is and RCA audio cable. Red and white go to soundbar, the black end (single plug) goes into the headphone jack on your TV(either back or front).

Maybe... turn down your TV volume and then turn up the Soundbar's to use as a pre-set level. You could then go up or down based on the TV input. I think it depends on your TV's inputs... it may not work with the split red/white inputs but would work with the headphone type input. I use mine on an all-in-one computer on my desk so I just reach up to turn the volume knob.

I can't say without knowing your hookups on your TV. I can say yes if you have the red and white jacks for audio it will definitely work fine. There is hdmi as well and another audio out jack that is a single plug with a male type jack that will plug in. I hope this info helps you.

Leslie..you need to run your headphones through your audio receiver and not the tv...this should work..if you do not have a audio receiver,then you have to use audio input jacks to your tv....hope this helps.

Once your TV has RCA-type outputs and you have a 2-RCA jack to 3.5mm (male) cable, this sound bar will work. This is the set-up I currently have and is quite adequate for my needs, I set up the sound bar above the TV so I get nice sound spread.

If your tv doesn't have any alternate sound out option a sound bar wont work sir. You have to have coax (red, white,) cable ports minimum. Best are hdmi and optical ports. As long as you have something from your Tele to the shins system all others will come through. (Royku etc)

The sound bar is strictly analog, that is, it has no digital (Toslink) connector. If your TV has an analog output for headphones you can connect the sound bar that way, otherwise you have to use a digital-to-analog audio converter.

This sound bar will work with the your tv just fine. The only issue I have had with mine, was that sometimes my tv gets out of sync with the bar, as it doenst have a digital out. For the money, this is a pretty good setup once you get everything situated. It will be a bit longer than your tv. it is about 6 inches longer on both sides than your tv.

If your tv has a flat back, not a curved back it will work. Also make sure your sound bar already has the holes in the back to screw into.

Hey Richard, it depends on your setup. Your speakers would need white and red plug-ins and your TV would need to have an auxiliary jack of some sort. I have mine running from a shelf speaker system into my green speaker jack for my computer, personally.

Yes. Simply use the audio out plugs on the back of the TV to the matching inputs on the back of the Soundbar. Once connected, you'll want to turn the volume control down on the TV to let the Soundbar system take over. Cheers!

If the output is stereo and the devices have a 3.5mm input and output port for sound then it should work. Mashmal stated the standard red and white stereo sound from a composite cable. While I do not disagree that if you have composite and not 3.5mm cables for the sound (which is likely in most home television setups) that a composite switch would work better, but I do disagree that you convert it to 3.5mm unless you just have to. Conversion can degrade sound quality. Also, if your conversion method is not the best quality you might see some bad results as well.

I can't be sure as I'm not familiar w/ the soundbar. However, my guess is that it would work so long as the soundbar has a pair of RCA jack inputs. Worst case, return costs would not be too high if it didn't work.

If your tv has the side RCA pug ins like most tv's you can get it to work. I own one of these sound bars if I had it to do over I would spend a little more and get a better sound bar.
