How to connect Logitech z-5500 to my tv?

How can I connect Logitech z506 speakers to Tv, Xbox and Ps3?

  • Does anyone know how to do this, I've been told if I purchase an RCA cable(red and white) then I can connect from the speakers to my tv, my xbox and ps3 are connected to the tv via hdmi cable..so if my tv is connected to the z506 system through the rca cable then would the sound from my xbox and ps3 come through the speakers as well? I need help on this, I don't want more problems, I want solutions! Thanks!

You really cannot. That speaker system was designed to take 3.5 mm cables from a computer sound card for each of the speakers. Your TV likely has a single optical output that encodes 5.1 channels. The two - dont really connect. That speaker system also takes left/right analog. If your TV has left/right analog output - you can hook up a pair of RCA cables between the two to get Stereo. The speaker system MIGHT do some psudo-magic and send sounds to other speakers but it will not be real 5.1 sound. I wish there was a small decoder box that would take Optical input, decode the results and output to 6 3.5mm jacks but this does not obviously exist.

If your TV has speakers attached to it, it will use those speakers for everything. You might have to adjust setting on the tv so it will use the speakers properly.
