My Yamaha has the ability to add an optional BlueTooth receiver. But since you failed to tell us your make and model - we cannot tell if yours has this ability.
The main channels are "Broadcast Channels" which mean they are sent out over the air waves.
The FCC made a bunch of rules back in the 50's concerning what was allowed and if a TV show wants to go over an antenna - then it must follow these rules as well.
Cable channels are never broadcast so...
Wireless systems tend to be crappy and are sold to women or men who are 'whipped' by their women and dont want to see wires running around the room.
Think about it. Speakers are MOTORS. They convert electrical energy into mechanical motion to create sound.
They cannot really be 'wireless'...
Your Home Theater system must also support ARC so it can listen for the audio from the television.
ARC is a great idea - but both devices at either end of the HDMI cable have to be upgraded to support it.
They sell a lot of combo packs so both a DVD and BluRay disk are included.
Triple packs also include a code to get a digital download for your PC or tablet.
DVD's are standard def and this video format was state-of-the-art 70 years ago. A DVD has to be backwards compatible to a 1948 television.
We have learned a LOT about video and monitors in those years, but you dont get any benefit from this with standar def/480 lines of video.
Do you have a HDTV?
DVD is standard def, BluRay is 1080. Same difference as going from SD to HD.
Try watching the standard def version of ABC, CBS, NBC, etc. tonight. Watch for a good 20 minutes to get used to the SD picture. Then mid show - switch to the HD version. This will show you the...
Soundbars are less complex and expensive than a full receiver + 5 speakers + sub.
They work better in smaller rooms with symetrical side-walls to bounce sound off of.
There are 3 grades:
* Crap sound bars that only accept left/right RCA inputs for stereo.
* Better sound bars that accept...
You cant.
VCR is such an old technology that modern HDTV's no longer have yellow composite inputs.
The DVD side - might have 3 rca jacks Red, Blue, Green. HDTV's sometimes have these inputs.
First - look at your programming package and cut back to a cheaper service. This sends a message to the cable/sat companies.
Second - do a web search for "Cutting the cable" to find sites that will show you how to setup an antenna and internet services to replace some shows. Some networks keep...
Video wise you want the BluRay system because it will play both DVD and BluRay disks.
Sound wise - they are actually something like 21 watts per channel. Very weak - but they assume you wont read the fine print on HOW the power was measured to understand the cheats.
You also cannot hook your...
Dont.
Televisions with built in disk players are usually the lower end units, and break frequently.
As you saw - a television with a DVD player. It wont take a BluRay player, a Smart BluRay player or a 3D BluRay player. A BluRay player is $57.
Smart - For $99 you can get a small media...
Bad idea.
A better device is a small media server like the Western Digital TV Live box. Roku2/3 are also good but do not handle as many file formats as the WD box.
These media servers EXIST to access web services and play computer files. They have great support and get frequent firmware...
(sigh) This is about the 200th time someone has asked this same question since New Years.
Your BluRay system is a Disk Player.
It plays disks.
He gave up the ability to hook other things up to it for the low price.
Pop in a Pixar DVD or BluRay and go to the disk setup menu.
You will find test-patterns and instructions for properly setting the basic Brightness, Contrast and Color.
Your Sony Bravia system is NOT a AV Receiver. You cannot run HDMI through it.
Does the Bravia system have an optical input? Many of the box systems do not. If your system does have an optical input, look on the back of your HDTV. It should have an optical output.
Get a optical cable and run...
The box systems are Disk Players with attached speakers.
Some of them have 1 input but it is usually left/right analog. Think "MP3" player.
Thats it.
They do play disks pretty well and some people love them. But as soon as you try to hook up to get sound from your TV, game system, media...
The entire guide is on the Dish Network site.
You just bring up the Guide (hit "Guide" button on the remote) and it will show you every channel. Find the one that says "KCBS" or something like that.
Well - apartments and bass tend to not mix. Bass is an explosion of sound in the room that will rattle the walls.
Your price is also way to low for a 5.1 sound system that includes 5 speakers, some type of decoder/amp and a subwoofer.
For a simple install, you might look at a Sound Bar. Go...
