Hook up I just bought a new 46 inch Spectre TV. I have an earlier Bose GS system with no HDMI port. My new tv has no yellow video input. Will I be able to use this system. The cable man tried as much as he knew and failed. Thank You

Hi,

What model of TV are you hooking the Bose system pls? Alternately, determine if the TV you are hooking it into has a pair of white and red RCA connector marked Audio OUT.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

The back of the bose appears to have lots of RCA connectors. I do know you can get RCA to HDMI Converters. The back of this link shows the Television connection, Image 3 and Click Zoom +

and the converters

First, you need to run the coax cable from your satellite dish to the "cable in" input on the back of your satellite receiver, not the Bose. If your satellite receiver has an HDMI OUT, and if the Bose has an HDMI IN,run hdmi OUT from the rec. to the Bose IN, then keep your HDMI connection from the Bose OUT to the TV IN as is. Make sure you've selected the correct input on the TV menu. As it is right now, you're not delivering any video signal at all to the TV!! -only audio(red and white). There are a couple other ways, but they won't give you the same quality. I assume this is HD, right? If you CAN do it this way (i.e. if you have enough HDMI ins and outs), it's the best possible hookup and you won't need the composite (red, white and yellow) at all. By the way, it's the yellow connector that carries the video signal; the red and white are audio left and right. If you can't hook it up all HDMI, disconnect the "separate cable" (I'm not sure what that is or what kind of cable or what it's for)and plug in the yellow connector into video IN on the Bose.

i think your problem is with cabling your surround sound is audio only and you wii is video and audio. i would hook up wii first and get it working first. dont plug the surround into the yellow jack on your audio video switch
good luck

Hello
You haven't given any description about the converter you bought. Please send me the model number and brand name of the converter did you bought. OK.

To view a DVD in the Bose system on the TV, connect an HDMI cable (or composite-Yellow, Red, White) to the back of the Bose system (output) and the other end to the input on the back of the TV.

If you have a cable box or satellite and want to get the audio on the Bose system, connect an RCA (white and red) cable to the back of the Bose system (input) and the output on the back of the cable box/TV/satellite.

Switch channels on Bose as needed. Good luck!

If you have HDMI port on the game system and a free HDMI port on the TV plug it into that and use your TV remote and select source/input HDMI 1 or 2. normally your TV is using HDMI 1. Second optin if you are not using HDMI cable the you need to use audio/video cables red,white and yellow cables hook them up colors matching on game consloe and TV. Try that !!! TV make and models varies. Good Luck

You may have to go into the bose setup and select optical in for that particular input. Check your user manuel it should say in it.

You should be able to connect hdmi from apple tv to bose v30 for picture and sound. You can also run component video to bose and a hdmi out of bose to tv. Just make sure your running hdmi out of bose system to tv if your tv supports hdmi if not use component video cable. Another way which isn't as good of quality is to run fiber optic from apple tv to bose v30 and hdmi straight to tv.
