A home theater system is the perfect complement to your high-definition television.
A flat-screen LCD television allows you to view high-definition video from many devices, including a digital cable box, DVD or Blueray player or gaming console. However, unless you have great sound, you are only enjoying half the experience intended by the content's producer.
A home-theater system offers upgraded stereo sound and often includes 5.1 surround. A 5.1 surround sound system includes two front speakers, two rear speakers, a center channel for dialog, and a subwoofer that allows you to feel the low frequencies. To enjoy the surround sound offered by your home theater, you must send the audio signal from the television to the home-theater receiver. One cable is all that's needed. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Plug the red composite wire into the red "Audio Out" jack on the rear of the LCD television.
2. Plug the white composite wire into the white "Audio Out" jack on the rear of the LCD television.
3. Plug the other end of the red composite cable into the red "Audio Input" jack on the rear of the home theater system. Note the input channel in which the cable is inserted.
4. Plug the other end of the white composite cable into the white "Audio Input" jack on the rear of the home theater system. Be sure to connect the cable to the same input channel as the red cable.
5. Turn on both the television and the home theater system. Set the home theater to the input to which the audio cables are connected. You will now hear the television audio projected through the home-theater system speakers.
