A:AnswerNo. RCA is at “line level” low power. Not enough to power a speaker alone. Line level is the signal that your receiver amplifies. Don’t ruin your RCA wire.
A:AnswerHi Norse,
Thanks for reaching out.
Unfortunately, no. The SS-CS3 (Floor standing speaker) usually used as either a front or a
surround speaker, and not as a Dolby Atmos speaker.
For your setup, you will likely need to have our Dolby Atmos-enabled SS-CSE Speakers. Designed especially for Dolby Atmos, the SS-CSE speakers result in surround sound that envelops you from every angle- even above!
For more information about our SS-CSE, check out the following link:

I hope you find this information to be helpful!

A:AnswerLook to see if the turntable supports speaker wire output. If so look at the manual to it to see how much wattage is supported. These speaker require at least 90 watts I believe and you'll need at least 8 ohms. If the turn table can push that power then yes. Otherwise you'll have to buy bookshelf speakers, which Depending on speaker model will still give you a nice deep full sound anyway. I have kilpch bookshelf speakers that are fantastic and sound as good and loud as many tower speakers. I've researched many to get to my purchase (also based on cheaper price as well). I also know Sony themselves make fantastic bookshelf speakers along with Kilpsh. Those are mostly the two brands I'll purchase because they've never let me down. But there are other great brands and models out there such as Polk Audio. I'm just speaking on my own personal opinion and experience.
A:AnswerMost (if not all for the last two decades) tvs have optical input. If yours is older and doesn't have BT or doesnt support hdmi arc output you can buy a simple cheap receiver and buy something like these. Sony makes amazing audio receivers for less than $200 that'll power these speakers if you're looking for tower speakers and full sound with a dedicated subwoofer to add on. Otherwise you can look into soundbars that also use optical input if you just want extra sound that isn't coming from the tv built in speakers. Hope that helps!
A:AnswerNot sure about that particular sound bar, but soundbars are generally closed systems. Your soundbar covers the left, center, right, and subwoofer channels so I would say that any floor standing speakers are not compatible. They are really meant for a home theater setup that features a separate receiver (or amp) with separate speakers for each audio channel.
A:AnswerHi there,
Thank you so much for your inquiry.
Yes! The SS-CS3 Floor-standing Speakers usually connect to an amplifier or AV receiver that supports an impedance of 6 ohms and a bare wire connection. The available output ports on your TV will tell if a speaker with a bare wire speaker connection is supported without the use of a receiver or amplifier. You may refer to the link below for instructions on how to connect our SS-CS3 Floor-standing Speakers:

I hope you find this information to be helpful! Thank you so much for considering Sony!

A:AnswerHello M2C2,
Thank you so much for your question!
If your Panasonic Set has a special port for passive speaker connections & supports a rated impedance of 6 ohms, yes, you can. For the sample connection diagram, you may check out the following link:

A:AnswerHi Ron, thank you so much for your inquiry.
The SS-CS3 Floor-standing Speaker usually connects to an amplifier or AV receiver using a bare wire connection. If your TV has special ports for speakers, yes, you can. If not, you will need to have an amplifier or AV receiver that supports both the TV and speakers connections to use these speakers.
I hope this helps!
