Stereo Reciever how do you hookup a tv to a stereo reciever?
Yes i tried hooking up the wires to all the different jacks on the tv and the reciever. But I still cant get the sound to just come out of the big stereo speakers. Ive tried going from the audio out on the tv to the aux also to the phono also to the tape in and out jacks but still no sound. I also tried turning off the tape monitor button and switching from monitor 1 to monitor 2 but still nothing.
This is difficult to answer without knowing exactly what model TV and stereo (and other devices) you have. However I can speak in general terms.
First you probably should look at the owner's manuals for both the TV and the Stereo.
For the TV you are looking for LINE LEVEL OUT. This could also be labeled LINE OUT or simply AUDIO OUT. My big TV has a Line Out on RCA jacks and also an Optical out.
This needs to go to one of the inputs on the stereo. After you connect these two, you need to select the input on the stereo that you are feeding the TV in to. Some Home Theater receivers I have seen require the user to map (select) the input that will be used for a particular device selection. For instance, if I select AUX on my receiver, I need to tell it specifically that I want it to look at the Optical input or the RCA jacks.
If it still doesn't work, try connecting the TV end of the cable to another device (like a DVD player or a laptop) to see if you can hear that. If not, check your stereo receiver settings. If you can hear something, then you need to check the TV settings.
I got a call from a friend a while back that couldn't get a pair of wireless headsets working on the TV's line out jacks. It turned out that the TV wasn't putting anything out. He got it repaired under warranty.
I hope this helps. Please return and select a Best Answer from all of those submitted.
