worked well on computer. prevented spikes as well as could be determined. Wasted about 15 minutes when power went out. enough time to close out valuable programs. also tried on DVR to attempt to even out spikes a keep it from rebooting. Jury still out on that one.

I purchased an apple TV streamer for netfllix, etc. I also have a surround sound system so needed audio hookup to surround sound. These cables did job properly so now can stream with surround sound system. without these had picture from streamer and sound from whatever tv show was on. Was easty to install (plug them in).

was disapointed that rear speakers had to have wires run to them across floor. series 6 has wireless speakers and more power for only a little more money. good value if you can hide wires.

Is it possible to connect the digital optical audio output to an analog input?

I just bought a Sony KDL 40W600B tv. I have an analog HT system that I'd hate to have to replace. My old Sony Bravia (also HD) had RCA outputs that connected just fine. This new tv doesn't seem to have RCA outputs, only component inputs.
The Home theater System is a Niro Pro 1.1. I love the sound it produces and don't wish to replace it. Any advice or suggestions on how to connect these would be greatly appreciated.
I also have a Sony Blu-Ray DVD connected to the tv via HDMI cables. DVDs play but the sound comes out of the tv now, not the NIro like it used to. Thanks.
if you have an optical audio input on your surround sound, it should work connect streamer to optical audio input on you r receiver. set receiver to this input and tv to streamer input. should work if have these inputs. I had same problem good picture but wrong sound. These cables will work if you have optical audio connections on both ends of source and sound system

How to hook up Apple TV to Bose speakers

How to hook up Apple TV to Bise speakers
I have samsung receiver but probably similar. Hook cable from apple TV directly to your tv set noting imput number. Hook these optical audio cables from apple tv to surround sound optical audio input. Set receiver to accept sound through optical audio input. Picture should go directly to tv through the input number you selected and sound should go through receiver to your speakers.

CONNECTION PROBLEM

I HAVE CONNECTED ONE END TO MY DIRECT TV DVR RECEIVER AND THE OTHER END TO MY BOSE 321 SYSTEM AND DO NOT GET ANY SOUND. WHAT CAN I DO?
Check to see the source on you receiver. I have to use 3 remote controls on my samsung system to gell all stars alligned. Your surrond sound system is probably not set to receive from your streamer. has different input. Samsung has input for optical cable. hope that helps.

Whats the difference between series 5 and series 6

Im trying to figure which system to buy and the specs look identical. What are the differences between the 2 systems?
not sure but one may have wired rear speakers and one is wireless. wireless does good job and much easire to install but need electircal outlet near rear speaker position

Able to hear TV Audio Clearly/Loud?

If I have a DVD Player/Recorder With ATSC TV Tuner plugged Into HDMI-Is TV Audio Surround??? And-OR Loud enough??? Thanks
small remote control has a setting for 3 D sound. this allows all attached devices to be surround sound. and is very decent surround sound for money without wires to rear speakers

All the time surround sound?

I just bought a Series 5, and am actually happy with the way it sounds and operates. I am however, disappointed that the rear speakers will only work when playing a disk. Does the Series 6 unit have surround sound all the time?
yes it does. there is a button on series 6 for 3D sound. this adds full time surround sound when on

Comcast remote and volume control through digital in setting

I previously set up my Smart Blu-ray HTS with perfection. Most recently, I have noticed that I can no longer control the volume with my Comcast xfinity remote. If I do use the comcast remote, it only controls the audio to the TV not the HTS Blu-ray. Does anyone know how to resync the comcast remote to allow volume control of the HTS Blu-ray? Thank you in advance.
with mine i had to punch in code to remote using code for samsung surround sound on unused remote button. (aux or dvd button on top). then when I want to control sound volume I push this same button to adjust sound. Then have to push tv button to again control tv.
