Soundbars are single units that may have an external subwoofer and satellite speakers. These are easier to set up and often affordable, but they\u2019re not going to have the same performance as a more traditional home theater system.<\/p>\n<p>A full system includes an A\/V receiver or amplifier and two or more speakers, plus a subwoofer.

We can thank the humble HDMI connection for simplifying much of the setup of a typical home theater system.<\/p>\n<p>HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface and has quickly become the standard for connecting most home theater components. Unlike many cables we\u2019ll look at in this article, HDMI can carry video, audio, and additional data, all on one cable.<\/p>\n<p>This makes plugging in devices like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/7232\/the-best-blu-ray-players-for-every-budget\/\">Blu-ray players<\/a> simple. Where before you\u2019d need a video cable plus a pair of audio cables, now you only need one HDMI cable to connect the Blu-ray player to your TV. HDMI can also make more complex connections much easier than they would be otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>HDMI has a special feature known as Audio Return Channel (ARC). This lets a connection from your TV also send back audio to the device on the other end of that connection. Most often this is used for connecting an A\/V receiver or soundbar.<\/p>\n<p>Connect everything else to your TV, connect your receiver to the HDMI ARC port (this is typically the HDMI 1 connection), and audio will automatically play through the receiver. Then, when you need to use the menu on your receiver, switch to that HDMI input.<\/p>\n<p>The only thing that makes HDMI cables slightly complex is different versions, with new versions added fairly regularly. A game console might require HDMI 2.0a for all of its video features to work. If you\u2019ve only got an HDMI 1.4 cable, it doesn\u2019t have the bandwidth for everything, so some features won\u2019t work.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, there\u2019s an easy fix for this: make sure that whenever you <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesavvy.com\/reviews\/the-best-hdmi-cables\/\">buy an HDMI cable<\/a>, you get the latest version available. These cables are backward compatible, so you don\u2019t need to worry about having a cable that is too new to work with your older components.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_Connections\"><\/span>Video Connections<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>HDMI has mostly taken over duties for video connections these days, so it\u2019s rare you\u2019ll need another connection to plug your <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/733629\/best-streaming-devices-2\/\">streaming box into your TV, for example. Still, if you\u2019re connecting an older component or using an older TV, you\u2019ll still run into these types of connections.<\/p>\n<p>Many, but not all, of the cables use a standard RCA connector on the end. This is a single pin in the middle, with a circular metal cup on the outside.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-783434 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/home-theater-wiring-analog-video.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Analog video connectors\" width=\"700\" height=\"421\" data-credittext=\"Kris Wouk\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Kris Wouk<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Component\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_3\">Component<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to connect a high-definition video signal without using an HDMI cable, component is your best bet. This cable has three RCA connectors, colored red, green, and blue. These split the video signal into luminance (labeled Y) and two color channels (labeled Pb, Pr or Cb, Cr).<\/p>\n<p>This cable is increasingly uncommon, but you may need it if you\u2019re looking to hook up an older player capable of high definition, like a game console or Blu-ray player, to your TV.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Composite\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_4\">Composite<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Though the name is easy to confuse with component, composite is much simpler. This combines the entire video signal into one cable with a yellow RCA connection.<\/p>\n<p>Though this was once the most common way to hook up video, it\u2019s not used in most newer home theater components. If you\u2019re using composite video, it\u2019s likely to hook up an old <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/18327\/are-dvd-and-blu-ray-players-still-worth-buying\/\">DVD player<\/a>, VCR, or game console.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"S-Video\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_5\">S-Video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>S-Video was a superior option to composite video until it was eclipsed by component, and later, HDMI. This cable separates the video signal into luminance (black and white) and chroma (color) signals across four pins. For convenience, these are all packed into a single multi-pin connector.<\/p>\n<p>S-Video has historically been used in some VHS players and DVD players, but the most common use case for it these days is to hook up older game consoles with superior video quality to composite.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Audio_Connections\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_6\">Audio Connections<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Similar to video, HDMI has mostly taken over typical audio connections, combining them with video.
