  • Again, thanks a million! Do I not need the audio cables then?


    I do have the optical ones too - shall I just forget them now?

    If you use the setup above (#42) you will not need audio cables. The Home Cinema system will extract the audio from the HDMI cables.

  • Perfect :)
  • Sorry that it's taken me so long to update this but I've only just received all the components and set them up tonight.


    Anyway, I am delighted to report that I can now watch DVDs, stream via my laptop and my firestick! Am beyond thrilled! Thanks so much for your help - my ex thinks I'm a tight cow for not just buying a new TV but this has cost me less than £30 and works a treat!

    Fantastic.
    Is the picture good?

  • Good for the firestick and laptop - it loses something on the DVD but I don't watch many DVDs anyway so I'm happy with that!
    Thanks again.
