A:AnswerBluetooth is always an option, or use an AUX/Line-in cable. I was able to set it up relatively easy for my daughter last week, and her small 32" flat-screen from several years ago worked just fine.
Available Connections:
HDMI ARC
Bluetooth (version 4.2)
Optical
USB Playback
3.5mm AUX line-in
A:AnswerThis LG had been by far the worst. We can not get optical /digital audio output to function. To much money spent, try hdmi first - hopefully that works for you.
A:AnswerThis would be good for a bedroom, and bluetooth means it's wireless for any device with Bluetooth (like all phones/ tablets, most new computers and some tvs)
A:AnswerThis TCL Alto soundbar is not designed to be used in conjunction with addition speakers on a sound system. It is a stand alone soundbar. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support

A:AnswerThis TCL Alto soundbar is compatible with most audio sources and can be connected via HDMI ARC, Optical, or the 3.5mm headphone jack. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
A:AnswerThe sound bar comes with several cable options for what would be most convenient for you. In my opinion I would use the Optical cable provided assuming your tv has the port for it. optical will give you the best quality sound.
A:AnswerThe Alto subwoofers cannot be used with other models interchangeably. Additionally, our Alto 7 is not compatible with a subwoofer. You would need to get an Alto 7+. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
A:AnswerYou have to manually switch the input to the correct output for the optical. The color code should be on the top of the sound bar unless you took the sticker off. On ours the correct color for Optical is yellow. If you have done this and you are certain it is on the correct input then try searching through your TV settings for sound output and select optical. Outside of these two things I don’t know.
