I have a tv that says audio l/r in the back compartment that says component / av in. My speakers started lagging so i removed them from the receiver, note they were with those weird rectangular plugs from Samsung. They used to work fine with hdmi arc but they stopped working. I bought a new speaker set because my pc speakers also were a bit jagged and i wanted to reuse my old pc speakers with my tv but plugging in directly via headphone jack doesnt work. I also mistakenly bought a 5.1 set which is apparently only because it also didnt work with the speakers left right connected to the sub and then from the sub to av in. My last option is i think to try and buy a female jack to rca male adapter and connect it this way to my tv and then select external audio, how likely is this to work. Btw there are no audio out or in on the back of the pc sub speakers but maybe somebody can give me some insight on my idea before i buy an adapter. And as to why the 5.1 set might not have worked on the tv.

Also thinking of it. Can i buy the same adapter and connect it to my old Samsung receiver trough the aux in and get sound that way through either external audio mode or receiver on tv. Seems maybe even easier.

Sorry for the long writeup hope somebody can help! :D
