Re: Silly TV setup

I'm assuming those speakers are analog input only?

It probably doesn't, but check to see if your TV has an analog audio out. If it does, it should be as simple as connecting your FiOS STB and the AppleTV into the TV, then connecting the speakers to the TV.

If the TV doesn't have an analog audio out, then you would need something like this to switch between the two (use only the audio portion of the switch):

»www.amazon.com/RCA-DT902 ··· o+switch

Or, probably a more sensible thing to do, acquire a speaker system with digital input. Either a PC speaker system that has digital input compatible with the digital output of your TV (optical or coaxial), or purchase a home-theatre-in-a-box (cheaper than buying all separate receiver + speakers).

This is the TV.

That may have been moderately important.

Plug the 3/16" input cable of the logitech speakers into the headphone output of the TV.

Plug the FIOS cable box into one of the HDMI ports.

Plug the Apple TV into the other HDMI port.

Voila! You're good to go! And your sound should be stereo. Make sure you have the speaker plug plugged all the way in.

The only problem is there is no headphone out.

The manual and specs are wrong for a 32FL11
