Types of inputs and connectors
First, you need to find out what inputs are on the TV in order to make a good connection to the acoustics. In modern models, these types of audio and teleconnects are used, with which you can connect various speakers:
- special connectors (Scart, RCA);
- line output;
- headset or headphone jack;
- digital port HDMI.
In the first embodiment, computer speakers are connected that do not have a built-in amplifier — all that is needed is to pick up the acoustics of such power that would not exceed the allowable limit. The second and third options are used when the product has no special connectors: this is how the speakers with a built-in amplifier are connected to the TV. Last option (HDMI) is used to connect more "advanced" devices - for example, home cinema audio systemswhich give a very high quality sound. This output is available for all newer models.
Types of acoustics
In this section, we look at the existing options for speakers, as well as how to connect the speaker system to the TV.
Simple speakers
Such products can provide the user with a decent sound only if amplifier availability and volume control systems. They must be connected to a separate outlet, and directly to the TV using a 3.5 mm TRS jack.
Multimedia center
This type of acoustics provides you with better sound. Connecting the music center carried out through adapters type bells or TRS.They are sold in any industrial store specializing in spare parts for household appliances. On TV, use the AUT-out, and on the music center IN-input and enjoy high-quality sound.
Composite stereo system
The standard composition of such a system is a simple amplifier, and several speakers of a passive type of different power are connected to it. You can connect it with any of the above options or through SCART connector, for this you need to purchase similar RCA or TRS adapters. If you connect devices of the active type, then you need to apply the cables recommended for this case, in this case the sound from the TV is output directly to the speakers. Read more about the nuances of connecting active and passive devices in the article about subwoofer connection.
Home cinema
This option is the best quality transfer of all the nuances of the sound range, so experts call home theater the most advanced of all modern stereos. It has a professional receiver and a fairly powerful amplifier, so the sound at the output of the speakers is of particular purity and colossal volume.If you are thinking how to connect speakers from a home theater to a Samsung, LG TV or another - prefer HDMI, because in this case at the output we have the highest quality sound.
When connecting, we advise you to carefully study the operating instructions, follow all recommendations clearly, and install only when the TV is turned off.
Used cable types
Different types of loudspeakers can be connected to a TV with the obligatory possibility of regulating the quality of the sound range, which directly depends on the correct combination of the TV output and the input on the amplifier. If they do not match, then you should use special receiver, and this additional cash investment. Different speakers are connected using different inputs, so it is necessary to determine - what kind of cable to connect in each case.
How to bring the sound from the receiver to the acoustics?
- The function "AUX" - make the connection with 2 RCA audio cableswhere European connection standard is used. Here, the cable connects the same TV output and input to another product.
- SCART - a cable of a certain length of a similar type is used, which is connected to the corresponding inputs and outputs on devices.
- If the TV has a SCART output, and the system of connected speakers has only 2 RCA audio inputs, then in order to correctly output sound from the device to the TV, use cable type SCART-RCA.
- On an acoustic product, it has a Jack type input of 3.5 mm, and TV - 2 RCA audio - then you need to use for high-quality connection 3.5mm jack cable - RCA.
- Your TV has a SCART output, and the audio system has only 2 RCA audio inputs - in this case you need to connect SCART-3,5 Jk + Ph 3m cable. The sound will be much better.
- If the old-style TV set has only one mono type output, then, so that the sound output from the TV is of normal quality, it is better to connect an external audio system through connected dvd player with a stereo system. To do this, use only the appropriate cable, which will help you choose the seller in a special store.
In the case when you used the cable that was advised, but the sound level does not satisfy you, then you will need to buy a separate receiver - all problems will be solved.
