Surround sound help?

Question

when you hook up your surround sound to your television, is the surround sound supposed to come out of your tv speakers or what? or is the tv speakers supposed to be muted? just wondering.

Answer 1

Your tv's speaker output settings can probably be set to internal (tv speakers), external (stereo speakers), or both. On some tvs, it has to be one or the other. Check the audio menu on your tv.

Answer 2

The TV speakers can be heard but in reality they should be muted or turned off , when listening to your surround system.

Answer 3

No sound comes out of your TV speakers.
