The Grey – movie review
It's intense, it's a thriller, it's elegant, and it makes Bear Grylls look like amateur hour. Do yourself a favour and catch this one at the cinema. A big screen and surround sound makes this movie pop but it's I'd happy to sit through again on DVD.

I just bought a Panasonic DVD home theater surround sound system?

Question by Tammy H: I just bought a Panasonic DVD home theater surround sound system?
i can’t get the sound to come through when watching tv but i can get the DVD player to work. I am not sure what i am doing wrong, or if i am missing a cable or something. I have a VIZIO HDTV if that helps any. I have an HDMI cable going from the cable box to the tv, and then i used the RCA cables from the tv to the home theater system but that i not working just the DVD player.

Best answer:

Answer by rossi2010
You state that you have run RCA cables from the TV to the HT, instead try connecting a stereo output (red/white RCA) from the cable box to a stereo INPUT on the HT system, once connected make sure you activate the correct input on the HT for sound. You might even have an optical output from the Cable box, and an optical input on the HT system – this would be the preferred connection as it would provide multi-channel surround to your HT system.

Surround Sound 5.1 System Yamaha?

Question by shatteredflames0: Surround Sound 5.1 System Yamaha?
I have a 5.1 Surround Sound System Made by Yamaha, When I play DVDs the volume of the music on the DVD is way louder than the speaking and can often strangle out the speaking if there is music at the same time… Is there something I can do to correct this?
It is an “all in one” It came with all the speakers and receiver. I used two large sony speakers I already had as the right front and left front speakers. I will try turning the other speakers down. TY! Any other suggestions would be great also :)

Best answer:

Answer by dannymot
Is it an all in one speaker and amp package?

The speaking comes through the centre speaker. So if you turn the other speakers down and the centre up that should help. That should be hidden somewhere in the settings.
