    Hello there. Hope someone can advise me.

    I have a LG BluRay home theater system, LHB335, as well as an old Sony stereo, HCD-441 (which, sadly, still sounds so much more awesome than the more modern LG system).

    Question for you wizards...is there any way I can connect my old Sony speakers to this LG system & just add some more freaking sound?? The LG has been such a disappointment.

    I'm not so adept at these things, but take instruction well! If you can help, I'd greatly appreciate it.

    In advance, thanks if you can help!
    =)

    the speaker impedance will be different so no. i take it your home theatre is an all in one? if so the best route is to save your shekels for a seperate home theatre receiver and buy some decent speakers,including a powered sub.

    WOW, it actually worked. I got all "fix it!" & I just decided to get all renegade & finally plugged in my old Sony speakers from circa '96....they sound fantastic on the LG home theater system...

    Sounds amazing! Totally compatible, it's great =)

    good deal.didnt think it would work as home theatre speakers are 3ohm resistance and yours are more likely 4 or 8.if they are 8 ohm i wouldnt think the output transistors would handle it long.but hell,if it works,use it till it drops.
