How do you get 5.1 surround sound through cable?

How can u get surround sound from your cable tv if you have no cable box?

  • My tv is'nt that loud and I wanted to get a component sound system to give it some boost when i watch dvds and especially regular tv, problem is i dont have a cable box of any kind, I just have a wall to tv type of cable so i wonder if there is a way to get surround sound with just that, would a converter box be the answer, like the one you would use if your tv is old and doesnt have the 3 rca plugs for your dvd. I f you can help please let me know?

  • Answer:

    My setup is the same way. Your tv just needs some audio-out connections. It should have a set of RCA connectors(red and white) and an Optical-out for 5.1 surround sound.(Your tv may not have this)

I hope your TV has audio outs which you can input into your home theater receiver.

I dont know from which country you are but....simply buy a set top box costs around Rs 600/- the audio out can be fed to amplifier/Hi Fi System separately to give you surround sound effect because it is decoded in the decoder of set top box and then given to amplifier for boost, now choice is yours whether use your lcd amplifier or separate amp for the purpose.
