How do you connect LG sound bar to sharp lc 32ld145k tv? Help!!!

[gharkin]

Hi I bought an LG 160w 2channel Sound bar 2430a. this has an optical cable included to connect to tv, but when I went home I realised my tv sharp lc 32ld145k does not have an optical input/output.

There is a hdmi connection and usb connection along with a coax I think? But I dont know if there is a way to connect with these?

Does anyone know if these can be connected another way?

Any help with this would be great thanks!! Not the most techy

Your TV does have an digital audio out. It is the SPDIF connection next to the VGA port. You need a coax to toslink converter like this -- http/www.amazon.com/C2G-40018-Coaxial-Toslink-Converter/dp/B0002J2MV4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1451832198&sr=8-2&keywords=digital+audio+coax+to+optical A quality RCA cable can be used to connect the converter.

I have an LG Tv and LG soundbar. You can connect the coaxial cable from the tv, and an optical cable from the sound bar to this converter

This adapter would use the coax out on the TV and convert it to RCA analog. I don't know if that is what you really want. Use these links as examples or part numbers to search your own set of websites which do deliver to where you live.
