looking for tv and stereo pro for advice

ok, I want to use this new paramax hahaha p7 speakers system it has 6 total spkrs two for front , L, R and two for rear L, R a center and a subwoofer I guess for bass? and my TV is digital with hdmi connectors

What receiver do I need to hook tv , dvd player and these spkrs to , I want to be able to play the tv sound through the reciver to these new spkrs the wife bought me at a blowout price

I was looking at the old stuff but I dont think the tv hdmi can connect to the older analog style receivers that do not have hdmi.

any help would be appreciated thanks

pictures of the the stuff?

 

pics of tv , dvd player and the spkrs

These pics are of the subwoofer back side, the pic of the connectors are not uploading will try again

 

back of p7 subwoofer goes with the first pics

 

back of tv

 

hmmm.... im lost on how to attach it, id say just start plug and play stuff

 

back of tv again

and the last 3 pics shown are of what I was thinking just a dvd player but it is a RCA home theater deal,
So how can I hook up the tv to play the sound through the rca theater and the p7 speakers

 

id just hook them up to the rca white and red on the back of the tv

 

ok, so to get tv sound through the rca I use my tv audio out to the rca unit Aux in?
would that be correct?

 

you are correct

 

no that does not work lol
I do have a 3.5mm jack on the front of the rca theater system marked audio in I just found , so I guess I need an adapter to go from rca cable to the 3.5 plug to get the tv sound to work through the unit.

other than that it works, what is the optical connector I have optical on the tv and on the rca unit is that for sound or just video?

I will plug it in since I have a cable for it and see what it does lol

 

worth trying

 

Alright OPTICAL cable gives sound from tv through the system !!!! woo hoo

So I guess no need for any adapter and I learned about the optical cable, I just assumed since it says optical I figured it was for picture or video Wrong it is sound /Audio
So all is good and no receiver is needed. So I am happy with her 200 dollar mistake purchase as it sounds great for what it is. thanks for trying Andrew

 

your welcome, and glad her mistake actually ended up being a good thing, 200 for surround sound is a great deal

 

this is the P7 set she got lol I gotta say they really dont sound too bad at least not empty boxes

 

this can be closed. everything is golden!
