Welcome to my channel! Today we are looking a various way to connect your receiver to your tv. If you have any questions at all about anything you see in my video feel free to ask me in the comments section.
There are essentially 2 types of recievers ones with HDMI and ones without HDMI hook ups. Today we are going over both of these types of receivers. Were also going over devices with RCA hookups and how to hook them to your stereo and tv.
For the ones with HDMI you literally going to hook your device (Roku , PS4 , Cable box, etc) directly into your Receiver. You will then run another HDMI cable from your receiver to TV.
For Units without HDMI you will need something called and HDMI Audio extractor this will allow you to get the audio signal from the HDMI signal and send it to your OLDER model reciever.
I was pulling my hair out yesterday. I bought a tv and it was delivered. Before taking it out of the box I found the manual online and realized there's no hookups for my rca cables (r/w/y) and I also have a set ared and white for audio.
I did some Google searches and found there's all kinds of adapters out there for the rca cables but never came across one for the r/w audio cables. Your video is the only one I've seen so far and you mentioned both issue. I will check your links now. Thanks so much for sharing!

Wow..thank you so much for this video. This is far the easiest guide to follow. I bought this amp today for a bargain price (seems people are going for soundbars nowadays) I connected everything up with ease and also set up the Amazon stick using a battery pack for power..something I learned from this video and didn't realise I could do. I am so happy with having big bass from my sub and clear sound thorough the other speakers. Top video
Great video this helped me get my old receiver to work with my new TV. Thanks! 😁
New follower ,Thank you ,I dusted off my rca receiver from 2013 and followed your instructions connecting my ps4 to receiver then TV and it worked!
Only 1:25 in and you made me realize what I was doing wrong thank you for the knowledge
Thank you for a great video, simple well explained without all the extra confusing unnecessary dribble some other UA-camrs throw in, seriously not interested in hearing about your cat your car and your landlord
Thanks a lot for your vedeo. It's so helpful. We've bought receiver for long time and have not figured out how to connect with our TV. Finally we found your video. Your video helped us out. Thank you so much!
omGOSH! just found your Help video! i too have an Onkyo receiver that i am attempting to connect my new Visio M tv to my receiver and speakers. Thank you so much. must send to my son and go over my wires that i have to see if I have an HDMI..... thank you so much ! happy holidays
Such a helpful video!! Everytime I move apartments, I forget
That PS4, hovering over receiver. It's an amazing idea🤯
Thanks for this video. Now I can keep using my older receiver, which sounds much better than the newer ones (they seem to be skimping on the power transformers these days since my old JVC is almost twice the weight of the newer home theater receivers.) Long live old receivers!! Thanks, bud!

Thank you for your video. I just got confused, since I have SmartTv. Every time I choose Netflix/UA-cam. My speaker doesn’t provide any sound.
I have the converter already, plugged my cable box in it. It works, but my question how can I make my TV’s sound to the receiver. Thank you in advance.
Did you find out how to do it?
Ok I got a new Samsung TV with all hdmi ports 2.1 120hz and I have a ps5 and a xbox series x. But my reciever is a Onkyo Tx-Rz900 and does not have a arc hdmi port. Is it possible to still use my e-arc from my TV to my reciever ? I don't wanna lose picture quality but I want the sound to go thru my reciever .
Thank you! I had the HDMI cords plugged in properly but no sound.
This video came as close to helping me get my older Yamaha surround system (with no HDMI setup with a 201? Samsung TV. with HDMI ARC.I hope he can answer a few more issues to finish up.. Good work and Thank you.
What questions do you have?
@@ReviewKingHQ Hi! I have a question - what about the TV itself being the audio source?
@@jenchapman7110 got the same question
@TRK-_- Yes I wondered this too before I purchase. Is there anything to get the tv sound to the surround sound. I can have the blu ray and Roku hooked up to tv and was hoping to have the audio source from tv to surround sound
Hey! super helpful. Can you do a demonstration with an old receiver and a projector.
Explanation clear and sufficient🌹✌🏽
Very Good! Thanks.
Hi just watch your video. So informative. I want to ask some question bout my unit. Thanks !
Thank you for your help
hi came across your video and had a question. i have an older pioneer receiver 5.1 with hdmi but the hdmi out (arc) was damaged. i just wanted to know if it would be possible to wire the receiver without using the hdmi connections on my computer and tv.
Thanks!
Freaking awesome video!!!!
Thanks for video one question i have is i run a cable box so i get the connections i have the hdmi connections so after i run the out to tv and the cable box to the stereo when inturn stereo on what input doni set the stereo to to listn to tv i use the cd input for my bluetooth listening
I was just curious about something that maybe you could help me with. I purchased a high end Yamaha receiver back in the days of the HD DVD and PS3. I am not sure how long ago that was but it was a long time ago. Anyway, I still have the receiver and I use it all the timebecause it has amazing sound.
I recently purchased a 4k 120hz 65" TV and want to take advantage of all the new technology on the TV. The speakers on the TV sound ok but not what I am used to. From what I understand the optical cable is limiting what my receiver can do with the information it is receiving from my TV.
The first part of my question is that for some reason I can't get my receiver to work without using an optical cable. I really don't understand why this is. I have tried everything I can think of in the settings of the TV and the receiver but can't seem to fix the problem. I have two HDMI inputs in my receiver and one HDMI output. The TV has one normal HDMI input I think and four 4k HDMI inputs.
The second part of my question is should I hook all of my other components like my PS4, laptop, PS3 etc directly into the TV and then down to my receiver or from the receiver to the TV? Also does it matter what type of HDMI cables I use?
The receiver has all the bells and whistles that were out at the time so 10.2 surround, THX, DTS, etc.
Thanks👍
Please help I have an older Klipsch HD Theater 300 will a Pyle PFA560BT (100 watts) have enough power to run all the speakers ? Or 5x20watt be enough for the speakers. Speakers are rated at 100watts and the Pyle PFA560BT has a sub out plus two HDMI in and one out
Finally got a ps5... went to hook up and our receiver is an older yamaha with no hdmi... can I run hdmi to our Tv (old but great picture DLP) then run an optic from the tv to the receiver?
Yes you can
Thank you!!! Same problem I have
great video!!!
Awesome thanks 🙏
Knock knock. I could really use some help on a Saturday. Bought an HDMI audio converter. Trying to hook up tv to Acurus A110 preamp. I looked at the product you linked and it says it will NOT send audio. I bought the same thing from Avedio. Do you have to have a convertor that says ARC to be able to send sound from tv to stereo? That's what I'm trying to do and I got zip so far. Cheers and thanks.
Thank you for helping me!
Glad I could help. 👍
Got a new last years model LG OLED. Cut the cable and bought Roku streaming stick. All works fine accept the remote does not turn on the AVR. Since my stick is plugged into back of AVR nothing until powered up. Can the Roku be set up to turn on TV & AVR and control volume with the one remote?
Thanks for your video. Does this device work for a turn table with RC cables? Also can I use a multi USB plug to plug in more than one of the devices?
And the link for the plug one does not work.
Hi, thanks for the video, I am still having trouble, I have a Harman kardon 141 5.1 home theater, if I connect anything to AVR and then from the AVR to TV, I dont have the sound, only the video. Do I need to use the 3 color cables also?
Thank You. God bless you all and your families 🙏🏽✝️🛐🛐
I really enjoy my old Yamaha receiver. I want to connect with a new smart Samsung tv. Can I use the extractor used in your video? Please explain what connects from the receiver to extractor. The TV has no RCA connectors and the receiver has no HDMI ports. Thanks!
Good job
Question i dont have ARC on my av receiver and i wanted to hook up with my graphic card video card with hdmi so i have better sound and its not working what im doign wrong? i wonder how i can run like that? thanks and great video so far
What about the optical cable? My receiver/amplifier is Dolby digital with an optical cable but no HDMI. What then? well I still have to get that descrambler unit? Also whether or not I need a scrambler are there any unique settings on my new TCL 5 smart TV that will help (better) mesh the old receiver speakers with the new TV picture timing? If at all necessary... thank you.
Hello Review King
I have an older Onkyo Receiver and 6 CD changer hooked up to my surround sound. Until 2 years ago, the system was connected to my TV via Component connections and the display and sound was fine. Since 2 years, I have an HDMI TV and the Component connections stopped working. I have tried a component to HDMI and it does not work. I saw a video showing how I had to open the Onkyp and change the diode(?) on the mother board. I am not going to mess with that. My HDMI has 3 regular and 1 eARC HDMI connections. The onkyo has 2 HDMI in and 1 HDMI out and 3 component in and 1 component out and 2 coax. The TV does not have any coax. If possible, I would like to reverse and play the TV sound on the Onkyo. Thanks. Keep up the good work.
No problem. Use hdmi arc from tv to the onkyo hdmi input.
I have my laptop connected via HDMI to my TV to stream movies and shows, do I still hook up my surround sound receiver through the HDMI ARC to my TV? Thanks for your help and thanks for the videos
I have a Sony HDMI arc I wanted to go to my old fashion receiver that are RCA plugs so it would come out of their speakers and receiver speakers with this unit you’re talking about will I do it
How can I get my sound bar to connect to TV with Roku plugged into one port, and PS5 into the other? I only have two HDMI ports and I can't figure out how to get my soundbar to function while using both of them. Any advice?
This is great! I'm trying to hook up a cheap RCA hd tv to an old Technics receiver (way before hdmi) and already bought a digital to analog converter. However, I wasn't aware that HDMI converters exisisted and therefore my converter does not have HDMI but rather coaxial out from the tv and into the converter. Should this work, or should I buy another converter? Obviously, I have no idea what I'm doing. Any advice would be really appreciated! Thanks!
It should work. If your receiver has no digital inputs, all you need is an analog audio signal via RCA jacks and if you have a digital audio out from the TV, the converter will give you that Analog audio output your receiver needs to give you left and right sound from your stereo speakers. HDMI simply combines the digital audio with video into one cable and allows a modern receiver to process it all from a single cable, and handle switching of multiple sources like a "switchboard" to feed video to your TV and audio to your surround sound speakers.
I have the same receiver as in the video, and have connected a cd player via digital out to the orange digital in on the receiver , however I can't get any sound what setting do I select ??
I need some specific advice. I am suffereing fromo 5.1 speaker distortion. Is there a way that we can communicate to get your help? In summary my situation is this. The cab;e input is direct into a Vizio 55 inch smart tv. An HDMI output runs to a Onkyo TX-NR626 receiver. The Onkyo drives a 5.1 surround sound system. The speakers (mainly the middle front) give out a distorted sound when the volume is above low-medium. There are two volume controls, one on the Vizio and the second on the Onkyo.that I have tried to balance with no luck. Can you help?
Hello can you do a video on how to connect 4k firestick to stero receiver thanks and also would you be able to give instructions down below I have a onkyo tx sr706
Hi, i've plugged the cables but still no sound. Do you have video about the setup?
When a receiver have a Optical input, does that mean i can send the audio from my tv's optical out to the receiver and play the sound of the tv on the stereo receiver?
Thank you Crack! Problem solved.
What about if you just wanted to do the receiver to the tv no system like a game system, dvd system etc?
I just bought a package of klipsch rp -280f, rp-160m, rp-440c and r-112 sub all premiere. A couple things. 1: what else do i need. what kind of reciever works best with klipsch systems and i want to get speakers for dolby atmos, so i need alot of channels. I also want to be able to use it with my tv to eatch netflix, and commect my pc and play in 4k 120hz (is this even possible? I can do it on my oled but do recievers have hdmi 2.1 or 2.1 passthrough?)
2: these speakers, are they a good combo? I want the best speakers in that series, and i don't know how to tell them all apart. I know the rp 280f are the best (in this particular lineup) ut i have no idea about the other speakers.
Thanks in advance😊
Why didn't you plug the plugs into the back of the receiver where it showed "TV IN" from the HDMI converter. I noticed you put it into the game ports. I want the sound coming from the TV into my receiver then out of my speakers. Just curious...
I have an older Sony sterero/cd receiver with RCA and purchased a Samsung Smart TV with only HDMI and USB. I am trying to get my surround Sony speakers to work with the TV. They work just fine if I am playing a music cd.
Gracias...
Will that HDMI audio extractor work with the HDMI ARC input from my TV?
Thanks for the video. I have an Onkyo TX-SR503 receiver with no HDMI ports. The receiver is fully connected to a surround sound setup, but due to a new cable box with only HDM in & Out the HDMI from the cable box is going only to the TV. What is the best option to connect the receiver to the cable box and then to the TV? Component or RCA from receiver to converter and then HDMI from converter to cable box? Then HDMI Out from Cable box to TV HDMI? Any best practices are appreciated!
Yes you are exactly right. Optical from the convertor to stereo for full surround sound.
I have a Pioneer SX780 ( 1978 ) completely redone - new caps, pots, LEDs, and wood case is new - a flawless vintage unit. How can I hook up a new 75" LG to my vintage gear, if possible? Thanks for any info you can share.
Great video.....thanks. Question......If I already have my Receiver connected to my Smart TV, using a optical cord, do I still need to hook up the Composite cables for Audio?
No the audio would go should go through the optical.
So I just got a new Sony Bravia TV that only has hdmi ports. I have an old Sony S master digital amplifier that connects to 5 speakers and a subwoofer. The amplifier only has rca ports for audio in. I want the sound from the tv to go through the amplifier to the 5 speakers and subwoofer. Which converter should I get? Thanks
I miss my big ass Technics receiver, sub woofer with satellite speakers, & JBL double 10" woofer speakers. I haven't seen anyone with a receiver for years.

I got a merantz pre amp tunner can i hook that through my tv without a reciever?

I'm at my wits end trying to connect a Silo smart TV to my old Onkyo AV receiver ( TX-DS484) with a early Bose acoustimas V(Base module and double cube speakers)I'm in the process of losing my vision and can't see to read well enough to figure out the settings anymore and I can't figure out the Silo at all. Just want some good audio especially for music.
I have a older surround sound but newer tv with no rca connection is it possible to still connect?
Is an audio extractor the same as a PAL/NTSC HDMI CONVERTER?
I habe an old tv that halls 1 hdmi input. There is an audio out rca. I am wanting to use this to have the audio go to a speaker that has rca audio input. It doesn't seem to work for audio from the firestick plugged In to the hdmi. Is audio out only for the rca input channels?
can I connect the MI stick 4k using that device to a home theater that does not have an hdmi input but only rcaa input and video?
One thing about HDMI audio extractors and movie surround sound success on old receivers is it will depend on if your receiver is new enough to decode the newer surround sound bitstreams the streaming services use.
I have an old Yamaha RX-V3000 AV receiver from 2001 that sounds great, but has no HDMI inputs and wanted to watch 5.1 Dolby Digital surround sound movies streamed from our Roku box, which has no Digital Audio output required for the receiver to produce the surround sound. So I bought a HDMI stripper box like you mentioned. It worked great for a couple years and was able to enjoy full 5.1 channel surround sound for movies, but eventually all the streaming providers stopped streaming movies with an audio bitstream codec that my old receiver could decode. So now instead of getting full Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel surround sound, I get 3.1 Dolby Pro Logic. Very disappointing
Thanks for your input! That’s a good point about the HDMI extractor.
I have an Onkyo receiver. It is all hooked up & working great, but I can't watch my tv/dvr without the receiver on. Is there a way to watch tv without turning on the receiver?
Hey there. 👋 I have pretty much the same amp as you. I have an older model TV 2007 so we connect our laptop to the TV via hdmi to watch netflix etc. How should I connect to the amp to send the sound to the 5.1 and still get the image on the TV please?? Do I/can I set the amp to receive from each of the numbered hdmi inputs specifically via the remote?? Many thanks in advance. Fred
@@ReviewKingHQ many thanks for replying, brilliant. I did try that and got audio but no picture?? Which of the many options do I have the amp on?...TV, dvd phone kind of option? God I feel old!! Haha. Thanks again. Fred.
My Panasonic Viera is set up the way you showed, and I still get no volume through my Onkyo. It all plays through my Echo Dot Gen 5. I have no idea what to do now.
