Connecting Yamaha Soundbar to TV using HDMI:

Connecting your Yamaha soundbar to your TV with an HDMI ARC is probably one of the most conventional methods among others. It is also quite easy and provides a stable connection. Below, we have a step-by-step guide on how to connect the two.

In order to connect the soundbar using HDMI, you will first have to find the ARC on your TV. ARC stands for Audio Return Channel. You can easily find it on the TV’s backside, probably called HDMI.

  1. Make sure both the TV and the Yamaha soundbar are switched off.
  2. Insert one end of the HDMI port in the soundbar HDMI port and the other end on the TV HDMI output.
  3. Turn them on so that we can configure them together.
  4. Go to the settings of your TV, and select HDMI mode.
  5. Go to the settings of your Yamaha soundbar and choose HDMI as an audio source.
  6. This allows you to control the volume using both the TV remote and the soundbar remote.
  7. Play anything on the TV to check if the audio is playing through the soundbar.

Connecting Yamaha Soundbar to TV using an Optical cable:

An optical cable is another great way to connect your Yamaha soundbar and your TV. This method is also quite famous for connecting soundbars with TV.

Below is the step-by-step guide to connecting the Yamaha soundbar with the TV using an optical cable:

  1. Make sure both the TV and the Yamaha soundbar are switched off.
  2. Take one end of the optical cable and insert it into the Yamaha soundbar input.
  3. Now take the other end of the optical cable and insert it into the output source of the TV.
  4. Go to the settings of your Yamaha soundbar and select the optical cable as the input source.
  5. Similarly, in the settings of your TV, select the optical as the output source.
  6. Play anything to test the audio on the soundbar. If there is no audio, double-check the optical cable’s ends. If they are not inserted in the correct place, this connection will not work.

Connecting Yamaha soundbar with TV using a coaxial cable:

Sometimes, you cannot connect the TV using either an HDMI or optical cable. In these instances, connecting the soundbar to the TV is possible using a coaxial cable.

It is quite similar to the connection between Soundbar and TV using an optical cable, with the only exception being the use of coaxial cable instead of the optical cable.

Below is the step-by-step guide on how to connect Yamaha soundbar to TV using a coaxial cable:

  1. Make sure both the TV and the Yamaha soundbar are switched off.
  2. Take one end of the coaxial cable and insert it into the Yamaha soundbar input.
  3. Now take the other end of the coaxial cable and insert it into the output source of the TV.
  4. Now change the settings of your Yamaha soundbar by pressing the STB button using its remote control.
  5. Similarly, in the settings of your TV, select the coaxial as the output source.
  6. Play anything to test the audio on the soundbar.

Connecting Yamaha soundbar with TV using Bluetooth:

The new generation is all about a Bluetooth connection. This quick, wireless method eliminates all the fuss about wiring.

It is observed that the Bluetooth connection does not provide the optimal sound quality provided by all the above-mentioned methods.

However, it has its pros, like all the decluttering and saving oneself from a massive load of wires. Before we proceed, the first thing is Bluetooth availability on your TV. Most smart TVs have Bluetooth connectivity options.

In case you do not have this, you might not be able to connect the TV to the soundbar using Bluetooth. If you still want to use the Bluetooth option, you might need to use a Bluetooth ADOPTER. This will be connected to the TV via an HDMI, coaxial or optical cable.

This is why most people do not appreciate using Bluetooth adapters because it requires them to run the almost same connection using either one of the cables.

No matter which one is your preference, we have a detailed guide about connecting the Yamaha soundbar with a TV using Bluetooth below:

  1. Turn ON the TV, as well as the Soundbar.
  2. Turn the Bluetooth of your TV by going to the Menu.
  3. Turn the Bluetooth of your Yamaha soundbar as well.
  4. Find the Yamaha soundbar in the nearby devices from your TV, and try to pair them.
  5. The pairing will take a couple of seconds.
  6. Once a connection is established, play anything to test the soundbar and the TV.
