So all I want to do is go Roku via HDMI > Soundbar HDMI > TV. Why is it people need HDMI into the TV and Optical cable back to the Soundbar for ARC? I seem to keep reading this and I find it very odd seeing as HDMI carries both audio and video?

I have the roku going to the TV now but this stupid Samsung doesn't have audio outs.

Hello, so I was just speaking with Sony Product support and it was going around in circles. They kept thinking I was trying to send a signal to a soundbar. Basically I want to know if a Sony HT-CT370 soundbar, will send VIDEO to a TV that does not have HDMI ARC. The out on the soundbar is a HDMI...

Any recommendations?

  All of these options really don't seem to work out. I guess the days of plugging in your speakers to a TV and having the TV's speakers get cut off are over. Any of these converters I would use with speakers I could not use a remote which is pointless. Heck I'd be happy with a 3.5mm jack on...

I just thought of something, if I use one of these because the audio is still going to the TV via hdmi I will be playing audio from the TV as well as the speakers. I want to be able to control the audio via the remote but totally circumvent the TV's ****ty ****ty speakers. I could mute the TV...

Oh okay, wasn't sure since I saw ROKU's mentioned in comments of some of the converters. This TV only has 720p but I can look for an extractor for down the road. Just so I understand your first statement. The 3 on the right are component, the yellow one is the one I would use but can only do...

Okay so I think I'm headed in the right direction! I am just hoping one of you guys can verify something. Okay so I hooked up my phone to the speakers and they were fine so I was like What mate? So then I contacted ROKU and they were like is the audio going to an in or an out. I assumed it was an...

Roku 2  via hdmi to the TV, I don't used anything else. Looked at the manual and now I'm at a loss. Usually when I plugged in speakers to a TV in the past the TV's speakers would stop working and signal would go to whatever is plugged in. :/ *update tried them with another TV, Roku and TV's...

This one: Samsung LN40E550F7F,  http://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/LN40E550F7FXZA-specs I'm confused why all of these people buy the logitech console adapters then or some people buy the 5 way splitter? I guess my biggest worry is by switching it to two and using the 1 wire above the sub won't...

My TV's manual says it has the following feature so I am guessing it's stereo but I'm not sure since it does have hdmi as well?  "SRS TruSurround HD (Off / On) SRS TruSurround HD is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two speakers...

Okay so, I'm not too bright in terms of this stuff so bear with me if you would. I'm trying to hook my Samsung TV to my older Logitech 5300e 5.1 speakers. I was going to go with something fancier but the apartment I'm moving into has a small living room and won't need much. I realize the easiest...

In the sellers forum it says "DO NOT REQUEST OR SEND MONEY USING PAYPAL GIFT/PERSONAL, WESTERN UNION OR MONEYGRAM." Does this mean you can't use paypal, western union, or money gream, or you can't use paypal but you can use western union or moneygram? What payment options are we allowed?

I'm about to purchase these headphones can someone tell me if there is a good replacement for the pads or how you got rid of the dye in your pads? 

Out of curiosity did anyone figure out a good method to get rid of the excess ink in the pads?

If anyone in here the has the X2's and Senn HD598/600's would you please tell me which puts more pressure on your jaw bone in front of your ear? I'm looking for a replacement from you DT990 pros. Or if you have the a900x's I would be interested as well. Thanks!

For me I think it's that area in front of my ear and below that whole area where my DT 990s are pushing is bothering me so as little clamping as possible. Which of those headphones would you guys say sounds the best?

Right now I have a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro's. I suffer from bad TMJ so I can't have headphones pushing on my jaw at all. I dislike on-ear compared to over ear but I don't have much of a choice anymore. These headphones are for music, games, movies ect. Sometimes these headphones surprise...

Were they just sitting on the paper or did u put a magazine or something on them to apply pressure?

I'm really curious about this comparison as well I have a pair of dt990's while they are fine I wouldn't call them great or excellent.

Am I the only one who finds these headphones overrated? I have the pro 250 ohm version for over a year. I started getting crackling but fixed the issue. Honestly I don't know why people think these are all that great.

Do these need the HM5 pads, how comfortable do you guys find them after a few hours?

I'm still learning, so I looked up the DT990's and I see 96dB/mW is that what I am looking for in terms of mW for a soundcard/ amp? So my card puts out 80mW so does that mean it can push my headphones to 83% of what they could be? Or am I totally wrong?

In another thread someone had mentioned he wasn't sure nor am I if this card can properly power my headphones. I assume they could as it says it can power 600 Ohms but in terms of power delivery that might mean squat. So can someone tell me how adequate 80mW is? I have Beyerdynamic DT 990 pro...

What I found most interesting is that they were comparing these to the 598's in that article as well which are $150ish, while the other two are $299 and $429. I really didn't think the 598's were in the same class.
