Comments

  • I can't see why it wouldn't work. Who told you that? A salesman?

    As long it the TV has a optical out (I'm 99% sure it will…I own the 65" version) and the sound system has optical in, you should have no problems.

  • +1

    Logitech Z906 has 2 optical inputs which will be okay to use with that TV, what they could be referring to is that you will not be able to get the full potential of the system from Z906 with a TV, being a PC surround sound system the main input is the 5.1 analog input. Through the optical input you will be able to get uncompressed 2 channel or encoded 5.1 channel (both supported by Z906). It will be more than enough for most people and you will not be able to tell the difference.

    Most people would ask you to get a proper home theater system.
    The Good Guys has a Yamaha HTiB (home theater in box) for $400 which you could consider (based on reviews it does not have an active sub which could be a deal breaker). https://www.thegoodguys.com.au/yamaha-home-theatre-system-60…
    Also in true OzBargain nature, ensure that you are getting the best price for Z906. Depending on where you are you can get the cheapest: http://www.staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=z906&spos=3 or price beat at JB Hifi, Officeworks (limited stock), Harvey Norman.

    No matter which you go with, it will be heaps better than built in speaker in the TV and for the price each system has its pros and cons. but one thing they both share is offer a great value for money (not RRP but on sale).

  • Probably best to get a system with ARC, that will integrate better with the tv.

    • nah im happy with z906
