Riva Tuner will let you do this. You can download it with Afterburner....or you can download it standalone. This explains it. https://www.blurbusters.com/gsync/gsync101-input-lag-tests-and-settings/12/

You're welcome. This is a pretty common thing. Plug one end of the optical cable into the TV optical out. The other end to the converter optical in. Then plug the RCA plugs on that other cable to the RCA out on the converter. Then plug the 1/8" stereo plug into the soundbar.

Your TV has digital optical audio out. Your soundbar has 1/8" stereo in. You need a converter like this. https://www.amazon.com/Optical-Digital-Converter-Support-Control/dp/B07BKX8BV7/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1549045839&sr=8-5&keywords=digital+optical+audio+to+analog You come out of the TV with a...

You're welcome.

You can't connect speakers directly to the TV because your TV only has digital optical and RCA analog outputs. You need an amplifier for the speakers. One of the above (the digital or analog output) needs to go to the input of an amp.....and the output of the amp goes to the speakers.

You're welcome. ;)

I was wondering that myself. I ended up finding this in an article about phones. "In practice you shouldn't get any problems with a headphone with impedance between 20 to 60-70 ohms on most portable devices. " ...and I think that would also include speakers...as the phone doesn't know the...

I don't see the problem. Although I'll say that putting something "in line" to control the volume may be a little tricky because it's going to have to do two things as I see it. It's going to have to dissipate heat and it's also going to have to have an impedance that doesn't throw the whole...

What model receiver? Does it not have a balance control?

"Am I suppose to connect to only 1 rca line in with a y adapter or to both " It really doesn't matter because I think the sub pre out is a mono signal. So if it works for you by only connecting one....only connect one. Or connect both and turn the volume down.

I would probably just get a new little amplifier for whatever speakers you want to adjust. Then just send a signal to it. I think it's going to be a lot easier.....and they don't cost much. Here's one. There are lots on Amazon...

I don't think this is going to work and here's why. Your amplifier has a specification for the load. Let's say it's 8 ohms. Many times it is. By adding a pot (resistor) in the circuit you are going to change the load impedance on the amp...and most likely to a value the amp isn't designed to...

There may not be a graphics card. At least some of those units sold with only integrated graphics is what I'm seeing.

"Is there a way to find out that it really affected the main board? Like.. would I find a burnt area or something? And is this highly possible to happen? Or does the technician bluff so he doesn't look inexperienced? " Sometimes you will see a burnt area....but not always. ...and it's very...

I do a lot of work on this sort of thing, and yes it's possible. ...but if I suspected the PSU had a problem, I would have checked the PSU voltages before I went and hooked up the main board so I didn't ruin it.
