How do i get my Speakers to Work?

CK

I recently brought the Logitech X-530 PC Multimedia Home Theatre Speaker System - 70 Watt (Total) (5.1) and i really wanna connect them to my Samsung TV! the main speaker has cables Green, Orange and Black with an adapter which you can turn it into white and red audio. But when i plug it into the back of my tv it wont work!! i run it through the headphone port at the moment (green cable) but only the front two speakers work. can anyone help ?

Answer
The surround capabilities for these speakers do not support TVs. They do support game consoles and DVD players with a game console adapter, but in order to get surround sound from your TV, you need a separate receiver.

The reason is because your TV will only deliver 2 channels of sound, whereas your DVD/Xbox/PS3 will deliver the 5.1 necessary to hear sound throughout all the speakers. If you have a cable box, try hooking the speakers up to that and you will be able to get the 5.1 sound on channels broadcasting it.

However, if you want surround sound through your TV, you have to get a receiver that will produce the 6 channel audio the TV won't.
