Will this work with (via) a home theater receiver? That is, will sound from the computer play through the speakers of the reciver?

You have options when installing this device. In my installation, I simply plugged the USB connector on the device directly into my PC and an HDMI cable from the device to my monitor. Video and were delivered to the monitor. Another option is to use the Audio Out connector on the device to deliver sound to another device such as your home theater receiver. So, the answer to your question is Yes the sound from your computer will play through the speakers of the receiver.

as long as it is pluged in to hdmi on the home theater receiver, and not the tv it should work.

speakers should be attached to a AV receiver not to each other......so I would first look into getting a AV receiver.

This is on thing I've been having trouble with myself. I have the receiver connected to my home theater system and wanted to play audio from my laptop. I can connect to the receiver with my laptop's Bluetooth, but I haven't been able to get Windows to play sound through It as it doesn't show in audio devices. . I'm using Windows 7 and haven't been able to find any software in the hour I spent searching about it.

Hi Eddie.I use a Western Digital Live TV and a Set Top Box. Both connect via HDMI, and both sources have their audio duplicated and sent through the analogue headphone/speaker port. I connect PC speakers to that port and it works great.Greg

I don't believe so, at least I haven't gotten it to work with my TV. But I have a good sound system for my computer, and since they are both in the same room, I'm fine with it, since all I have for my TV is the stock built-in speakers. This might be a different story if you had a home entertainment system for your TV??

Yes......I use it to play my MP3 player thru a stereo receiver in another room. Except for occassional interference, it works perfectly.

These speakers are meant for use with a stereo receiver, so unless you have a receiver connected to your PC, probably not.

It is possible to connect the cable box to the receiver HDMI port, connect the receiver to the TV and listen to the sound through the TV speakers. It WILL pass through the audio provided there is power to the receiver. The receiver does not have to be on as it would then play through the surround speakers rather than the TV speaker. Within the menus there is a pass-through option. Receiver, Setup, HDMI Setup, HDMI Through (I select CBL/SAT here which corresponds with the HDMI input port for the cable box).

Thanks for your question. This should pass the audio and video from your PC or a ROKU or similar decive and pass it to your video display and your speakers. This is a fantastic sounding receiver. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Denon dealer.

Yes, it works for your purpose. However, in order to transmit audio, your receiver needs to have coaxial/toslink audio output.

No problem connecting to a receiver. If your computer has a sound card, you could connect via phono outputs to your receiver. Also SPDIF if both have that plug.

Yes, this should work but make sure you plug in the correct end into your TV, but I'm not sure what your audio receiver has to do with it.

Sure, your sound card would have to have a optical out, then you would purchase a toslink cable and connect it to the optical in on the receiver, then you have to make sure on your pc that it is set to output sound via optical out.....if ur using a mac it should be easy.

I connected mine to my home receiver. You would need a preamp to connect them to a computer.

It will work if your receiver have a DIGITAL RCA (ie not fiber optical) input.

We have not experienced this, our Audio out only works with the input line 1. input 2,3,4 does not have a Analog Audio out to a receiver. We use a Laptop to plug into line one and our output goes to a projector and a TV and the Audio goes over our speaker system.

Yes if your receiver has separate subwoofer Input that supports powered subwoofer it works ,this subwoofer is pretty good and generates nice base and sound
