You need an optical cable

kdawgct · Answer

It depends on the soundbar - you have to check the specs or the box contents to see if they include an optical cable. My Samsung sound bar (that I bought from Best Buy interestingly enough) did not include an optical cable so I had to go to my local Best Buy to pick one up (they aren't more than $30 but it's worth it). I also find that optical cables are much easier to connect vs. using the HDMI, which can be tricky depending on your home audio/video setup (e.g. if you have a gaming system, cable box, streaming box, etc.) and given that most of the newer HDTV models have optical cables, you're better off saving your HDMI port if you have something else you'd like to connect in the future.

Depends on how you plan on connecting to TV.
My Samsung Smart TV only connected with a Digital Optical cable, which I had to purchase separately.
It does come with standard Yellow/Red audio cables though. Which a lot of TVs do accept.

This comes with a USB cable to power the amplifier, and sends the TV signal with a coax cable. Any TV should still have a coax input on it.

WorksWell · Answer

This cable is useful ONLY if your TV has built in digital audio output and your "home theater" accepts a digital audio signal as an input. Then the cable will link them together. Otherwise, the cable makes no sense to use.

I have to say that you don't give sufficient information about what you are purchasing and what you wish to connect to what to give you a perfect answer. What signal do you want to put through the cable?
One thing to remember: no cable will make a signal better than it started.
