How do i hook up my xbox 360 with JVC THC60 5.1 Channel DVD Home Theater System?


I have my xbox 360 connected to a Sony Bravia tv, and the home theater is also connected to the tv, but I dont want to use HDMI for a connection.

You can buy this cable: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937899

which means you can split the audio off to your home theater system using an optical cable to get 5.1 surround sound and then use the normal HDMI to plug into your tv.

That's the best way I can see. Is there a specific reason why you don't want to use HDMI? If you really don't want to use it HDMI, can use the standard xbox video output cable (which already has the optical output included) but it's not as good as HDMI video.

First Timer's Tips for JVC Home Sound Products

JVC theater systems are one of the best in the world. A Japanese company that has been in business since 1927, renowned for introducing Japan's first television sets and for the VHS recorder.Thus, you are assured of world class products from this electronics company.

As you know, theater systems attempts to faithfully reproduce the same quality of audio and video experience that you get in concert halls and movie houses. There are many options available, but we'll focus on two or three JVC home theater setups.

We'll concentrate on models that produce surround sound-those with speakers and a subwoofer. The speakers convert electric signals into sound. The subwoofer is also speaker, and its main job is the production of those deep bass tones and low frequency sounds. You're probably wondering: why 6 speakers? The number is responsible for the quality of the sound produced, because each serves a dedicated function and what they produce fills the room.

So, with that background, let's look at some of the powerful models that JVC has to offer.

1. Soundbar Home Theater system TH-BS 7

Let's go straight to its main points:

- Ultra-Slim Design

- Wall-Mountable Pole-Type Speaker

- Vertical/Horizontal Layout Free Amplifier

- 180W Total Power

- Dolby Digital/DTS Decoders

Leveraging its Direct Drive Speaker technology, JVC has built an attractive, compact and slim device that you can that can easily match the slimmest of flat panel HDTVs.The system consists of a very slim Soundbar (1.4 inches),an amplifier/control unit, that is even slimmer than the Soundbar and is easily mountable.

The amplifier effortlessly decodes Dolby Pro Logic 11, DTS and Dolby Digital. It offers three optical digital and one analog inputs.

The TH-BS7 Soundbar has a frequency range of 200 - 20,000 Hz that plummets to just 200 - 10,000 Hz at 360 degrees off-axis. It has 4 JVC Direct Drive speakers - left and right main channels and left and right surround channels - each driven by 20 watts. The two surround channels are powered using JVC's Front Surround technology to provide surround sound, without the need for rear speakers.

It has a six inch wireless subwoofer that is powered by a 100 watt amplifier. It's a bit on the high side (it retails for about $600) and produces scintillating surround sound, but, it does not support some USB devices.

2. JVC TH-G31 Home Theater System

This is a bit more affordable, it sells for about $230.You need to buy 6 feet cable (for about $3) with it. The sound it produces is awesome, so, you need to be careful with cranking it up; we don't want the neighbors complaining! If you're looking for good value, it's a very good device.

It offers true surround sound, as it comes with 5 speakers and a sub-woofer. It also offers decoders including DTS digital sound and Dolby Pro Logic 11, one analog audio input and one optical digital input. It offers trilingual display (English, French and Spanish).

When you look at its sound production and the positive reviews it has garnered, the TH-G31 is a budget home theater system that delivers.

Monster multiple surge guard circuitry absorbs harmful power surges to give you audio video system protectionharmful power surges and voltage spikes can travel up ac power and coax connections and damage your components. Lightning, automatic garage doors, power tools, refrigerators and fluorescent lights all cause power surges and voltage spikes that can travel up ac power lines and coax cables to damage the sensitive electronic circuitry of your connected audio video components. Ordinary surge protectors, or the so-called "value brands", often fail to provide the adequate level of protection your av components need. Plus, standard surge protectors often cause as much as 20 to 30db of signal loss which can adversely affect the output performance levels of coax connections. Proper connection to an advanced surge protector that offers integrated system protection can help minimize the risk of permanent surge damage. Unlike standard surge protectors, the monster PowerCenter av800 with Surgeguard protection provides multiple layers of defense against harmful surges. Strategically placed multiple metal oxide varasitors respond within one nanosecond (a billionth of a second) to power surges and voltage spikes before they can reach and damage your audio video components. Plus, monster's ultra-low loss RF circuitry minimizes signal loss to maintain the peak output performance of your coax connections. monster PowerCenters make life easier. Monster's flatprofile plug lets you push your furniture flush against the wall. And, with color-coded outlets and cord labels, you can avoid unplugging your VCR by mistake, causing it to blink "12:00". Finally, a generous eight-foot monster power cord, which is the optimum length to reach most electrical outlets, is included. Now you can get protection from harmful surges, voltage spikes and inconvenience! Monster's PowerCenters offer high performance solutions for today's technology challenges.
