Video I exactly looking for posted just 34 mins ago. Thank you!

This is from Livewire...When the digital optical connection was developed, it was made to accommodate the digital audio standards at the time (mainly 2-channel CD playback). Thus, digital audio signals such as 5.1/7.1 multi-channel PCM, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS:X, and Auro 3D Audio cannot be transferred via digital optical connections. These types of audio signal formats require the use of HDMI connections.

New subscriber. A whole lot of information. Mostly over my head. I’m going to have to revisit this video several more times for better clarity. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. 👍🏾👍🏾

Pro logic, pro logic ii (x and x) are all Surround mixed in a 2 ch adio stream. Its done by matrix the audio, and play it out of phase (difference between the speakers) with a delay, in later pro logic ii and on theres a lot more to it. If you want to acces a Surround track easy, you take the plus from a stereo set, and place them in minus and plus on a speaker, this is the Surround track though without delay, this is how it was done way back.

Wow this is awesome, if I could add rears to the Jbl 2.1 deep bass for the guest room it would be epic. Amazing budget setup

Thanks for your recommendation of the nakamichi pro I was able to get it for $550 and I love it. You can feel thee sound before I even get it turned half way up. Love it

Omg. This is what I needed.

At 3:54 you mentioned only one brand has discrete true surround rear audio. I have had a Vizio soundbar for years now that came with 2 rear speakers that are true rear channels. I'm actually looking for a way to duplicate the sound coming out of the soundbar, to come out of my rear speakers for added sound, not the background noise I get with surround sound.

Awesome video, I have the soundbar Samsung J Series WJ355 and I was thinking of any possible way to add rear speakers, this video gave me so many ideas to better enjoy my movies during quarantine THANK YOU

When same transmission of audio in speakers it’s called analog audio… in simple terms analog vs digital audio… back in the days there was amplifier that had crossover… to where u could cut either treble or bass to a speaker

Excelente información. Es el único video que he visto tratando el tema. Gracias por compartirlo. Dios te siga bendiciendo...

The auxiliary input must be using Dolby pro logic 2 decoding (or something similar), and outputing the surround channels to the surround speakers.

Did you ever find a better updated version or way to get rear wireless speakers ?

Once rear speakers are connected with a soundbar and volume is set, do they react to the main volume from the soundbar, or you're forced to use 2 remotes (one for soundbar and the Insignia one for the rear speakers)? Many thanks!

I wonder, is it possible to add additional speakers to the set that comes with the rear speakers?

I just solderd the wires from my external speakers ( red and black ) to the sound bars speakers red and black .. so each seperate external speaker was wired to each seperate sound bar speaker and boom instant surround sound work great.

Heya There Jonah, happy new year mate. I'm just commenting to say thank you for your content, I've become one of your subscribers as I've found recently ( or wondered recently) with the introduction of the "Matter" protocol and its adoption by so many companies, whether that could be a "route" to finding a "sweet spot" in the adding speakers to dedate / issue??? What do you think?

I had the same issue with interference to the point I just said forget it! Earlier wireless speakers were terrible. Also, depending on the device, I have always found that DX will work flawlessly with most applications, but TX is an absolute nightmare to keep stable.

Very impressive video Thank you! 👍🏻

Hama RS100 is another unit with digita input and out. I hope it works better. Price is at the moment 109e in Amazon

I like ur channel but reading comments with basic questions from your subs I never see any responses. Way to provide some level of support.

I have an old technics receiver (no HDMI, no pre-outs, no optical fiber audio, only RCA), a Samsung Smart TV and a JBL Soundbar. Is there a way to connect all the 3 together? I thought about connecting the soundbar via HDMI ARC and the receiver via optical audio (using a digital to analog adapter), however there is no way the TV software is able to understand that setup 😂

Thank you for all your knowledge sharing

Good job , explains well

Hi, I've Samsung Q90R soundbar that has Soundbar + Subwoofer + 2 rear speakers, I think it is already 7.1 audio. Can I add more speakers to it, say on top ceiling speakers? If yes, how?

I've got old speakers mounted in he ceiling. The only connection to them is 2 white cables coming out of the wall with exposed wire. How would I go about connecting these to my new TV/soundbar, or is it even possible?

i have STR-K990 av receiver. is it capable to send signals to bigger speakers as it's own are too small?

Great research 👍🏼

I have a Samsung soundbar and see the rear speaker kit but from what I see it's not truly wireless because they have to be either connected to the base or one another which limits the area they can be used in.

I found a "LG nb3520a soundbar". Works great! Are there any compatible speaker for this unit? Thanks in advance..

swa 8500 also supports q60t soundbar

Hi Jonah, I have a question: I have JBL soundbar 2.1 deep bass (only support hdmi, optical and bluetooth) and I wanted to get a set of studio monitors as well. How would the sound be if I just use a aux port (usually connecting my laptop or rasberry pi device) and convert it to hdmi and use the same aux port to split output to another aux-xlr wire to my studio monitor. I understand studio monitor system and soundbar will essentially receive the same signal. Will this be a bad idea and ruin all sounds?

Hi Jonah, thank you for your video! I have a question about my JBL soundbar. I currently have a JBL 5.1 soundbar with the detachable satellite speakers and 10 in sub. I bought about 3yrs ago.

I have a Samsung soundbar and a onn surround speaker, is there a way to connect them?🥺

Question: I have a Vizio 5.1.2 m512-h6 soundbar whereby I have two satellite speakers that are wired into the subwoofer. If I were to get this Insignia kit, is there any benefit I would gain? Also, I didn't get how to Insignia kit sends sound to the receiver since I wouldn't have a receiver if I have a soundbar. Currently, the cables for satellite speakers connect to subwoofer so that means I am getting equal sound from both of my rare speakers at the same time as from the center front main soundbar. I want to make it so that I only get needed sound from either right or left or sometimes both like I would expect in a true surround system. Can I make this happen?
