Question by Psycho9000: I get a no signal message in my Bravia tv when trying to connect a sony home theater trough HDMI connection?
I connected my xbox in the same HDMI port and it worked with the same HDMI cable.

Answer by kg7or
If you have a cable or satellite box, my choice is to connect directly to the TV via HDMI and to the home theater system via another output from the box. I actually do it with simple red-white audio cables, and the surround-sound audio from the home theater amplifier is outstanding.

You might find a different way to do it with your system, but in any case, see if you can connect directly to the TV from the cable/sat. box, and independently to the home theater amp via another output.
————
Followup: there’s another advantage of doing it this way. If your cable/sat. system has music channels, you can select one of those channels and listen to the music without turning on the TV.

A perfectly matched and flawlessly sounding five speaker system, the AVHTB+ has the best of both worlds.

When the AVHTB+ is used in Dolby surround and DTS systems you can truly experience what home cinema is supposed to be. Plus, this system can easily be integrated with an active subwoofer for a true low frequency effect.

Fluance AVHTB+ Surround Sound Home Theater 5 Speaker System is a post from: 1 Home Theater Reviews

• Dolby 7.1 Surround Sound & Dolby Pro Logic IIx with Digital RF wireless technology (up to 30′ range) CD-quality pure-digital sound transmission Digital input “pass thru” allows the X41 and a home theater system to be connected simultaneously
• Volume control on ear cup Independent game & chat volumes Built-in mic monitoring Mic mute Bass Boost (button on ear cup) Oversized ear cups Fabric mesh ear cushions Removable mic with flexible boom Headset powered by AAA batteries (over 20 hours)
• Transmitter powered by USB (no AC adapter) Includes headphone output on transmitter (second set of headphones can be used simultaneously or in place of X headset) Chat Boost feature automatically increases incoming chat level as game sound increases
• 50mm oversized speakers for deeper bass response

The X41 is the third generation of wireless headsets from Turtle Beach for the Xbox 360. The X41 combines XBOX live chat with wireless game sound so you can hear the game sound and the voices of other players in the headset. That means you don’t need your XBOX communicator headset or external speakers. By hearing the XBOX Live chat in the center of your head rather than in one ear, you can communicate better online. By eliminating speakers you can turn up the game without disturbing others. And, by having the game sound right on top of your ears, you can hear even the softest sound cues that are impossible to pick up with speakers. Better yet, because of the Dolby surround sound, you can also tell where the sound is coming from. That’s because unlike stereo headphones, where the sound is either to the left or right of you, the X41 has 7.1 channel surround sound that lets you pinpoint the exact direction of every sound cue in the game. So if someone is quietly sneaking up behind

Answer by Andrew
Something could be causing interference. If you just got that sub I would completely disconnect and unplug it and maybe even move it away. Move any other electronics away from it as well. Also try checking all the speaker wires as some may have been pulled loose if you were moving stuff around. good luck!

Can anyone shed some light on whether this would be a good idea or not? My amplifier puts out only 200 watts.
Thanks, Dan. Can you recommend any 8-inch models?

Best answer:

Answer by Daniel K
Jack – I would not recommend it but you could try it. You will need to be careful because your PA amp can blow your nice Bose speakers pretty easily. PA speakers are made to put up with abuse – home speakers are not made for that.

A good option would be to get some smaller, lighter PA speakers. They make some great, small PA speakers these days:
