We plugged audio cable into the TV through the headphone jack, but, the sound is incredibly weak (lower than TV sound). Any suggestions?

I used the optical stereo cable and had very good results. That might be a better option.

I had to chnge the settings on my tv to recognize the sound bar. I don't remember the exact settings but i did have to play around with it for a bit to get it right.

Dear James, Thanks for your inquiry. If you are going to use the headphone jack, you're going to probably come close to maxing the volume in the television itself so more signal gets into the soundbar. Does your TV have an optical audio output? That would be a better option.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

You may have to change the setting on your tv to use the external speaker. Mine sounds great.

While the audio out on your tv works fine, I've found that you get better sound if you plug it directly into the audio out jack on your desktop set. (assuming you have cable or satellite tv.)

I remember having that issue when I first hooked mine up as well. I think the source for your audio on the TV is messed up. Make sure you have audio coming out of the TV and not through a receiver or make sure the receiver will play the audio. I have to turn off my TV speakers in order for the audio to play tthrough an external source.

I had to connect my aux to my headphone port on my tv to get sound. I couldn't get the Bluetooth to work how about you?

just figured this out myself. sounds weak, even when hooked up to a 50 watt per channel amp. volume is literally cut in half. forced to pump the stereo receiver up to twice or more. absolutely dismal, even with a receiver. note to self... going forward, any tv that doesn't have variable out, doesn't get into my shopping cart LOL.

if you are on cable or satellite, be sure the headphone transmitter is hooked up to the cable box or satellite receiver and not into your TV. Hopefully this will help.

I'm trying to figure this one out too. I think you need to put the component video cables into the TV, and the audio into the HTCT100. I do know if you place the audio into the tv, you will get no sound, even if you turn on the tv speakers.Has anyone else successfully done this?

Speakers are terrible, tinny sounding and not loud. Sound seems to come out the bottom of TV. I plugged a small pair of computer speakers into the headphone jack and they sound good. I just have to manually turn them off (they have an on/off switch on them) when I turn off tv.

You have to plug the mini phone plug into the headphone plug on your computer the other end of that plug should be plugged into an auxiliary "in" audio on your TV. If your TV does not have that, then you will have to plug that into some other source of sound - like a stereo etc.

This has nothing to do with the headphone, but rather the TV. In my case, my TV has a LINE OUT that I use to connect to the headphone, so the TV volume control, speaker, and mute functions all work as normal. But if you plug the headphone base into the "headphone" jack of the TV, the TV's speaker is almost always muted.Bottom line--check it with any pair of wired headphones/earphones you may have laying around....

there should be an A/v sync option in the audio settings to adjust this ...try that

I had somewhat the same problem. It looked like my audio cable was working but really was not. They sent me a new cable and now it works fine

This was the same issue I had and why I bought this product along with the optical audio cable. Prior to getting this, I was plugging my wireless headphones through RCA audio into the cable box since the TV did not have an RCA audio out. Unfortunately, when I wanted to watch movies on Smart TV Netflix or Apple TV, the sound in headphones did not work. With this converter, I plugged the Optical cable from the Optical Audio out to the converter than sent RCA audio cable to the wireless headphones. I now have sound for everything watched through the TV. You might need to shut off the Television speakers when using the headphones for Smart TV features like Netflix and Apple TV. I hope this helps

I just received my TV today the HLT7! and I have the same problem. Hardly any sound.

There are audio settings in the menu, I was able to play with those and get good volume. The TV is at another location so I can't help you with specifics now.

Hmm, well the tv is only really a monitor and wouldn't have anything to do with sound in this case right? Wouldn't you need to get the dolby sound from the broadcast source like your cable or directv box? e.g. connect your audio optical cord to the cablebox directly & plug directly into your HT setup.

I plugged mine into both the headphone jack and the red and white audio outlets on the TV. Both gave me a delay in my hearing aids. If I listen to TV by myself, its OK, but while watching with the rest of the family listening with the normal TV speakers, this just doesn't work.
