Question by Alex: Is it possible for me to put my home theater system into my car?
My friends and I are going on a road trip, we want to put my LG 5.1 Home Theater System into the car for some music with bass. Is it possible? It will just be a amp, a subwoofer and two speakers. Do i need some sort of DC to AC converter?
Thanks in advance.

Question by ArP: Can you plug a microphone into a home theater system?
Basically, what i want to do, is be able to plug a dvd player and a microphone into something, and have sound come out. Whether it be a converter with a home theater system or a type of converter with P.A. speakers, anything is fine. The “configuration” needs to be powerful enough for a large room. I don’t really care how it’s done. I just need to know how to do it. Thanks!

Answer by Doug E. Doug
It all depends on the type of home theater system you’re talking about and what types of inputs it has.
The typical HTiB (Home Theater in a Box) does not have the input required to add a microphone. However some (even low end models) will have RCA inputs to add an auxiliary source.
Something like this – http://www.amazingcameras.com/External_Microphone_With_RCA_Female_Plug__KPA1_p_28385.html – or this – http://shop.vendio.com/jackselectronics/item/945563149/?s=1208082733 – might work.
That said, you wouldn’t be able to use the mic and play a DVD through the DVD player at the same time.
For that you’d need a machine set up for karaoke. Using one of the machines found here would probably make the process easier.

Question by Bob S: I have a 5.1 surround sound system, but I am moving into a house with a Tile living room floor. What do I do?
The home is prewired for surround sound through ceiling speaker mounts but my subwoofer would be so far away from the hookup that I don’t want wires running on the floor. Is a bose 3 2 1 II series a good replacement since there are no wires running to the back of the system? Any other ideas on how to fix this problem?

Answer by Brent W
Yeah, sounds like your whole system will be pretty much useless. You should just send me your 5.1 system and I’ll take care of it…;)

Question by Swa Sdada: Is there any way to convert a 5:1 surround sound system to plug into an earphone slot?
I have recently brought a 5:1 surround sound speakers system but have found that I need a sound card for my PC and cannot plug it directly into my ipod or laptop. Is there any way to convert the 5outputs into a simple earphone jack?
If so where would I get one? Thank you

Answer by Jasper
if you are trying to take the output from your computer and put it into the 5.1 home theater it shouldnt be a problem. you will only get two channels of audio but your 5.1 system should be able to sepearate the audio out to all of the speakers. you will need to get a 1/8 inch to RCA audio adaptor.
the earphone jack on your computer is just a powered out jack. so there is no problem with using this to plug into your stereo.

Question by Phillip R: What can I buy to turn a old home theater system into a wireless home theater system without give up sound?
I just bought a new receiver about a year or two ago and it does not have wireless capability. I know there are things out on the market that can fix this, BUT I just don’t know which is the best for sound quality without giving up a fortune.
What about just trying to get the rear speaker wireless?
Best answer:
Answer by AVDADDY
No real solution for wireless all around. You would need wireless speakers and transmitters on 5 or 6 different channels. Wireless speakers are expensive because each one has to have a transmitter, receiver and amplifier for each channel. Even the best wireless speakers can’t come close in quality to many very modestly priced wired speakers. The other thing to consider is that you would be wasting the amplifier that is in your receiver

Question by kre84him: Can you run your cable TV coax into the antenna FM coax on a home theater system A/V receiver?
I’m shopping for a home theater A/V receiver. Currently my plasma screen is just a monitor so switching channels can’t be done thru the monitor. I’m using a dvd-r/w unit to change channels because it has a switcher inside that can change channels (much like the old VCR channel switcher when you wanted to record a tv show). I’ve noticed on the receiver that I’m considering buying that it as a FM coax input. Could I run my cable tv coax into this input and switch my channels through the receiver there using the receiver remote? Another detail: I don’t have digital cable (therefore no cable tuning box) only analogue cable.
Best answer:
Answer by Bill
no changing channels but you will get great FM

Question by Justin P: Can i wire a home theater sub woofer into my car audi system?
I have a 6 ohm subwoofer in a sealed box from a home theater system. is it possible to wire it to my kenwood KDC-MP235 radio? If it is possible how would i go about wiring it up? i don’t know much about car audio so if you could dumb down the wiring process that would be great. lol thanks
Best answer:
Answer by That Guy
you probably can wire it into the car, but home audio speakers are not as rugged as ones built for cars. I dont think the speakers would hold up to the temperature extremes of cars or the vibrations of the car while its driving. All in all i dont think its a good idea

Question by nittanyisland2000: I noticed that some home theater systems have receivers and some i guess just hook into TV or DVD. What….?
What does the the receiver actually do and why is it necessary in these high end systems. Thanks.

Answer by travis_unterbrink
An A/V receiver does a number of things, the main one being that it has full audio/video switching. Most monitors have only a few inputs available, but a receiver has many. So, let’s say you have a gaming system, a DVD player, a satellite dish receiver, and a DVR. They would all hook to the A/V receiver, and the signal would go from there out to the monitor. An A/V receiver also has an amplifier built-in to run any number of system configurations: stereo (2-channel), or surround sound (5+ speakers + a subwoofer). An A/V receiver will also have an AM/FM tuner built-in, too, and some are even capable to run your XM or Sirius Radio. They’re pretty darn cool toys, to say the least!
