No, I doubt the USB port on the digital to analog converter outputs audio at all, or even functions as a USB host. You can still use a 1/8" phone connector between the front left/right jack on the converter to the input jack on the Bose control pod and configure the converter in 2ch mode. If you must use the USB connector for the Bose to get audio from the TV, I do not think this is possible.

I don't know if it would work for USB input. It is designed to send audio to an analog input using rca plugs.

It would depend on the audio output port options of your specific TV. The audio input of the speaker system is a standard AUX cable. If your TV does not have any audio output to match, it would still be possible given the right converter (not included, but not too expensive on amazon).

That looks like what I have. I plug an optical plug from my Apple TV to that device but, in my case, then run analog from that to an Smart Board. I would assume, with the right cable connection, you could make it work with headphones. I will tell you that sometimes I've failed to get sound. As I recall, it has always been when reconnecting. Each time I unplugged and replugged in each connecting element and it would work.

Yes. You have to set it up as different input on your tv and then "add device" on your Bose

I just looked at the audio specs for your Samsung and didn't see any mention of 5.1 you don't want this plug, it is mono, your Samsung uses a stereo jack. You can buy a stereo cord with RCA outputs then let your receiver simulate 5.1.

Could you use the AV Cables that are in the back to hook it up to a portable sound dock? I just purchased one of these off ebay and was either going to get a Red/White Audio spitter to a 3.5mm Coaxial that way I can run it through my portable Bose Sound Dock to enhance the sound (http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Unlimited-Stereo-3-5mm-AUD-1200-25/dp/B0016LTZFI/ref=sr_1_11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1306514406&sr=1-11) or if that audio channel is dedicated to the Svideo Input, You could buy a Digital to analog converter (http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Audio-Analog-Converter/dp/B0013LWK3A/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1306514478&sr=1-1) and then use a Toslink cable from the MM72 to the Converter and then the RCA cables to whatever you choose. lol Sorry its what I am going to do.

If you want to connect it directly to the TV with the USB cable then yes. The better way to connect to the TV is with the Samsung All Cast Dongle or Chromecast.

Sorry I can't help you, this didn't work with my Samsung Smart tv, and I was not using the Bluetooth.

yes.. Absolutely.. it can connect to virtually any speaker system. for your bose you would connect the 1/8" stereo jack into the "front / main" input on the card.

I had the same problem with Samsung apps only playing audio using the tv speakers and not when I connected to my Bose soundmate via optical. I would say it's Samsung not playing well with others.

Mike, If your Bose speakers do not have a Toslink connector part no. 27015 will not work. Most new TV's and high quality speakers include a toshlink connection. I suggest calling Bose and confirm which cable you need. My best guess without knowing your Bose part no. would be you an audio cable like the C2G part no. 40411.

As far as I know, no such port exists on the TV itself. I would suggest that you run your digital Dolby 5.1 or other composite audio output to an external HI-FI, to which you have attached a sub-woofer.

You should be able to, I'm acheiving 5.1 on an LG 55" LED TV using the optical port.

if you connect your TV(the optical Output) to "Digital to Analog Audio Decoder"in the optical input and then connect your speakers to "Digital to Analog Audio Decoder" to the analog outputs work in 5.1,if you want to connect the TV directly to the speakers, your speakers should have optical input and yes works in 5.1

No but there is a solution.The audio output is via stereo jack or the hdmi. What I did to have 5.1surround through a n optical cable was to connect the hdmi audio/video out to an hdmi / sprig (optical) splitter. You get as an output the hdmi signal + optical audio. I am using the viewHD splitter and it works perfectly

Yes. I think so. I don't see any problem interconnecting it. TV outputs on this L-R Audio channels, which this adapter converts/combines to 3.5mm compatible adapter. Connect Bose head-phose just as you are connecting your headphones to any Aux. I'll try this with my Bose QC-15 and let you know.

I am very sure it will work fine. I have the original bose sound dock and the Bluetooth receiver works flawlessly with my Samsung Note 3 phone. As long as your phone can locate Bluetooth signal it should work fine. This is actually one of my favorite purchases from Amazon this year. With this Bluetooth receiver my bose and my phone I have negated the need for a stereo!
