Can I use these for my HDTV? What wiring (?) comes with these and would I need additional wiring/cords?

No, you can not connect these speakers directly to your HDTV, unless your TV has speakers connectors, which I have not seen one thus far. The do not come with any wirings/cords. If you want a 5.1 Surround sound or bigger speakers than your TV, then you will need the following. RCA Wirings to connect the TV sound outputs into a Receiver, which you need to buy [if you do not have one]. Then buy good speaker wires/cords to connect the Receiver connect to these speakers. The samples in the Internet seemed to be missing the Receiver. They only show the TV and the speakers, which is misleading to some who is not familiar to sound system set ups.

They do not come with wiring. They are also not powered, you would need a receiver or some other amp to power these.

Teresa - these speakers are not self-powered in any way, nor do they include any wiring. These are meant to be connected to an amplifier or HI-FI receiver, not to a TV directly. However, if you plug your TV into a receiver, then you might be able to use these.

I'm not familiar with your specific components but if your tv has an HDMI output connected to the receivers HDMI input you should have HD video and digital audio going from the tv to the receiver through the HDMI cable.

They need additional mounts... I did not need mounted them because they are on the TV modular.

The cords I have are female- I am looking for replacement or adaptors to work w/ tv so I can plug into

To use these on a tv you'd need a stereo Y adaptor with male RCA plugs to a female 3.5mm single plug. That way you can plug it in to the audio out port on your tv since most tv's don't have headphone jacks. A 10-20 ft stereo line cord would allow you to sit far enough away for comfort. Sennheiser makes a wireless headphone set that works well with tv also. It's rechargeable and has its own stand. The model# is RS120 and it's available from Amazon too.

Hey Richard, it depends on your setup. Your speakers would need white and red plug-ins and your TV would need to have an auxiliary jack of some sort. I have mine running from a shelf speaker system into my green speaker jack for my computer, personally.

No cables. I suggest going to monoprice.com for those. Just get their cheap ones (which are excellent quality, by the way). The more expensive ones are a full half inch thick. Way overkill unless you have some massive EMI problem.

Depending on what you are trying to hook it up to. Whether it is a TV or something else there should be a manual. They are red and white plugs on one side and depending on your TV set they are usually the same. you can even get them at the 99 cent store. I would recommend Radio Shack for a more personal service to help you.

yep, I did. as long as there are connectors on the tv, you should be able to just plug them in.

I am not an expert. Mine are on a Vizio and Philips TVs. All you need is an HDMI SLOT

want to plug it to my tv .It has one port which is small ( 3.5 ) and the tv is not stero .can these be used ?

Just be careful, some TVs don't have RCA outputs or headphone jacks. Then you need a digital to analogue converter (i think that would work, I am working on this problem myself.) Or I believe you can hook it straight to a cable box to avoid all that (with RCA cables.)

You mention that you are going to "hook up" to your tv. There will have to be an amplifier in the loop...tv out-to amp in, to which the speakers are connected. Sure, they will work indoors. You might even like the way they sound indoors which, btw, actually is not too bad. For a starter home theater, not a bad way to go and since they come with brackets for wall or ceiling mount applications, easy to install.

Not sure what you mean by "jacks". You will need an AV receiver and connect the wires to the terminals or use banana clips. They do not have audio jacks and you can not connect these directly to you TV or computer without a receiver. Hope that helps.

THey are not HDMI compatible. You'd need an audio HDMI converter to hook them up to your TV.

We use a TV as a monitor. Don't know what kind of connectors, however. Sorry.
