    Can you clarify on the back of your TV do you have the red/white RGB slots? Should have a red and white then next to it a red/green/blue thing too?

    If so make sure that the red and white connections on your phono cable is connected to the red and white phono sockets on the right hand side of the RGB component phono connections (socket labelled audio out)...

    Basically try the red/white connections first..... (next to RGB on back of TV)
    Indeed Niddy, tried that, even got premium cables. Just get a nice hum

      You should be able to connect a pair of RCA phono cables (red/white) from the TV's output (marked with a circle with an arrow pointing outwards) to the Line input on the Pioneer system. Then to select the external audio, you press the line button on the remote.

      Its that easy mate.....

      However, if you find you have no RCA on the back of the TV then your only hope will be a SCART to composite cable connecting the red/white only to the input on the surround sound.

        They're the experts.... although it should work in HDMI but if you cannot locate the 'Line' button on the remote I can't help
        Thanks niddy.

        There are 2 line buttons. Line 1 is a scart socket and line 2 is the audio cable sockets. The latter is what I have used.

        I think that the only solution is another SS system that works on electricity not steam.

        SWMBO may complain, but hay ho. It will look good next to the new Harman Kardon HiFi.

              Yep, done all that. I will try Pioneer tomorrow, failing that, new system.

              Strange as it worked through HDMI on the Samsung plasma.

                Hi Carol,

                I have tried the Blu Ray and satellite in the same socket and they work.

                Brought new HDMI 1.4 leads

                  The TV did come with a lead that converts a micro socket to a scart. I will try that tomorrow.

                        Hi Pompey,

                        The speakers are not wireless, but the DVD is. Connects to the internet.

                        All wired in and working fine. It said that I would need an optical cable to listen to the TV, but not so. It works through the HDMI ARC.
