Hi, we have a Samsung LN46C630K1FXZA TV http://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/LN46C630K1FXZA for a couple of years now, and I have it connected to an old Aiwa desktop stereo system for better sound and for headphones. There is a speaker out jack in the back of the TV, and I have this adapter (not sure what it's called) that allows two RCA connections (left and right sound for stereo) and the two RCA connectors and plugged into the adapter and the adapter is plugged into the TV. It's analog of course. OK, so we're planning on getting a home theater system, but I don't see any headphone jacks on this new home theater system and I just want to know how I can plug headphones into TV, either directly to the TV or to the home theater system.
The home theater system that we want to get is this Samsung HT F4500 http://www.samsung.com/us/video/home-theater/HT-F4500/ZA
When I plug headphones directly into the speaker out jack in the back, I do hear audio, but I can't control the sound at all. I've used the TV remote as well as the DVR remote to no avail. For one thing, I think the plug is slightly too big. I can fit it in just fine, but I've noticed that the adapter that I use to plug the stereo into it is slightly smaller. Now, I've tried plugging my headphones into the adapter, and I get the same thing, sound, but no means of controlling it. When I have my Aiwa stereo on, I have my headphones plugged into the stereo system, and I can control the volume there.
Again, does anyone know of a way that I can plug headphones into either the TV directly or the home theatre system? Or is there a cheap home theatre system that's similar to the Samsung HT F4500 with a similar price. I'm looking to get a home theater system with a headphone jack and wireless speakers for $300 or under.
Thanks in advance!
