outdated surround sound and blu ray player?




F


So my mom and I just bought a simple LG BP135 to replace our 10 year old DVD player. With our DVD player we had bought a surround sound system, also JVC. being 10 years old, it has no spot for HDMI. I don't see an optical output spot either and we also have a new HDTV. Is there anyway we can get surround sound when we're watching movies or tv? Or do we have to upgrade? Would rather not have to buy a new system because money is tight.


Answer
No, if you want the full hidef quality of HDMI video feeds, then you DO need a new or at least new-to-you surround sound system that has HDMI inputs and outputs.

There are great deals on receivers and speakers on Newegg.com right now, so you could get a Polk 6750 speaker system for $200, and a Pioneer 522K audio/video receiver for $150. That would give you MUCH better sound than the JVC set (JVC is not known for good speakers, for example), and would have all of the modern connectivity that you could want.

Blu Ray player with headphone port?




Timothy


Can anyone recommend a good BluRay player with a headphone port? Reason being, my speakers can only connect to headphone jacks and the the ones on my tv don't work properly (they cause a lot of popping noise and static) and the speakers on the little Vizio tv are junk. I have really nice speakers and I want to use them and the only way I can do that is if the player has a headphone port. I can't find one, because most sites don't let you filter searches by audio ports :P

Something off amazon or newegg or walmart would be preferable.

Thanks! 5 stars to best answer!



Answer
Sorry that is not a feature that will be on bluray players. Analog audio ports are now phased out of all current bluray players. If you can find a sony or Panasonic bluray from last year which has the red and white RCA outputs you can get adaptors so you can connect them to your computer speakers.
