Hi guys, I'm not completely clued up on Home Cinema Systems, so a little advice would be nice. I'll try and make this as straight forward as possible!
I have bought a 22" LG 2LS4R. The connections are as follows:
HDMI/DVI
RGB PC TV in
S-VIDEO
AUDIO mono (red + white)
AUDIO component
Video component (blue + green)
Antenna in
SCART
I have also bought a Pioneer DCS-363 DVD Home Cinema System. The connections are as follows:
HDMI
Video out
AUDIO in/out (red + white)
Control out
These are the connections that I can visibly see and are relevant.
I have connected the systems together via SCART as I am waiting on a HDMI cable that I have ordered from Play.com
Okay so the problem is, I want sound from my LG (when watching normal analogue tele) to come from the Pioneer speakers. I've done some playing around with the sound options on the LG but no luck.
Would it be possible to get sound from the LG to the Pioneer by using the AUDIO IN/OUT (red + white) connectors?
Or will I have to start looking for a Home Cinema with an optical connection? Even if I do get a Home Cinema with optical, my LG doesn't have an Optical input, so I guess I will have to get an Optical to Coaxial converter right?
I'm not too fussed about getting Dolby Surround Sound on normal tele, just any sound will do.
I don't really wanna have to trudge back to Empire Direct with the Pioneer.
Also any suggestions for a better Home Cinema around the £250 mark would be appreciated.
Thanks
