Hi
I connected a Philips HTL2101/12 soundbar to a Philips 42PFL7613D/12 TV with a digital coaxial audio cable(spdif port)
It makes a noticable echo. Now I’ve read I can just turn off the TV speakers but the TV has pretty good ones and I wanted to use it together. Would using 2 RCA component cables remove the echo?
Yup that Works, good old fashioned RCA. I suspect its because with spdif the singal goes from digital to analog so it introduces a 1ms delay, but with RCA its just analog to analog. Might have slightly worse quality, honestly cant hear it, but now I can use ALL my speakers, no echo. I suspect HDMI introduces lag same as spdif so if anyone has a similar problem, heres how to solve it.
