no headphone jack on samsung lcd tvs Solved

Question

Hello,

I just bought the latest Samsung UE46B6000VW and there is no headphone jack!!

Is there a way (not too complicated) to connect headphones so I can watch TV without disturbing anyone in the house?

Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

After several hours of fruitless research and a number of trips to multimedia stores, I finally found a solution!
For your information, I have a Samsung LED screen (which of course doesn’t have a jack input), and the Freebox Revolution (V6).
To save you unnecessary searches, here are the useful pieces of information I found:

1- An optical jack adapter DOES NOT WORK for audio headphones, don’t be fooled!
2- Optical jack converters (don’t confuse them with adapters) simply do not exist.
3- If you think you’ve found a solution, check in your TV manual that you are indeed using OUTPUTS and not INPUTS. For example, the RCA jacks on my TV are inputs and therefore cannot be used to connect your headphones to an adapter.
4- I tried, but couldn’t get any sound with a SCART - jack adapter. Some have succeeded, but according to the reviews I found online, it doesn’t support HDMI, or it only provides sound and no picture... In short, I don’t recommend it.

WHAT I DID: Just when everything seemed lost, a salesperson suggested using the RCA outputs from the Freebox (not from the TV). A cable that allows one of the Freebox sockets to be converted to RCA jacks is included with the box.
So all you need to do is buy an RCA jack adapter that you plug into the back of your Freebox. Then just mute your TV and adjust the volume with the Freebox remote, otherwise you’ll hear the sound both from your TV and your headphones.
I don’t know if this will work for other types of boxes; to find out, simply check if there are RCA jacks (yellow and white if I’m not mistaken) on the back of the box.
I bought this adapter for €10 at Surcouf, and it works wonderfully!

Otherwise, the other much more expensive solution is to use a home cinema system, which plugs into the optical output of your TV, and you will get a jack output on the speakers...

With that said, I hope I’ve helped you, and I wish you good luck with the rest of your search!

Hello everyone..................
I've noticed as well that Samsung no longer includes a headphone jack on their latest LCDs!
To connect a headphone to this model, you need to use the optical output with an adapter that costs around
€65 I don’t have the name on hand, but you can find it by asking Google! If Samsung is doing this for cost-saving reasons, I think they are being a bit stingy! I've heard that LG is doing the same! Good luck to you!

I have the solution.
I tried the optical adapter for 4.65 Euros online, but it's not effective, especially if you have multiple inputs: DVD player, home theater... Let me give you the solution: Buy an TA 110 Ldk "audio transfer system" adapter online. You'll generally find it for 38€, but I found it for 17€ plus shipping costs. And then, there's no problem. Connect the TV's scart output and hook up the DVD player from the home theater, and IT WORKS.
Good luck with the connections, but with a little method, you'll get there.

Hello,  Does that mean you have to buy a home cinema to be at peace?

Go to Darty and buy the TA PG2R Gigogne Electronic Peritel socket. This electronic box, while splitting the PERITEL input of your television, ensures the switching and distribution of sound from the video source to the speakers of your HI-FI system or your infrared or high-frequency headset.  Happy New Year

Hello,

are you saying that with the box from Darty (link provided 2 messages above),
it doesn't work?

Only what comes into the TV via the SCART connected to the adapter,
and not the signals from the TV, in the case of the integrated TNT for example
or the signal coming from the second SCART?

Thank you for your response, I am also looking for this type of box for a Philips without headphone jack or RCA.
Grrrhhhh!!!!! :-(

jeanbat51 · Answer

Mmmmh yeah!!! It might work for the Samsung but not for other TVs, for me it's a Philips and it doesn't work. Too bad!!!!!

berette · Answer

Hello everyone, problem solved for audio connections on Samsung LCD TV. In fact, you need to connect an adapter for 10 euros purchased at Darty (but not the DARTY brand as it's too expensive at 29.5), the brand is Temium reference SCART adapter, it's a piggyback SCART socket with an RCA adapter. Not having the space or the desire to invest in a home cinema, and with the TV sound being of mediocre quality, I invested in a set of ALTEC speakers for 49 euros, the sound is GREAT.

Be careful, contrary to what I've read here and there, you need to connect the adapter to the decoder (I am with Numericable) and make a parallel connection red to red, white to white, and connect the audio cable from the speakers to the remaining RCA adapter socket. Also, remember to enter your TV's menus for optimal sound settings.

Enjoy your TV!

HELLO YES THERE'S A WAY TO LISTEN WITH A HEADPHONE TO THE SAMSUNG UE40B6000 TV, it's simply if you have the Canal+ CUBE decoder, you plug your headphones into the audio output of the decoder and it's good, I just set it up for my dad.

Hello, otherwise think about getting an automatic switching SCART block equivalent to the TA 110, which you received TV through an antenna or via Canal Sat; it works without cutting the sound for others.  Finally found it, I leave you the link http://www.comptoir-audition.com/Adaptateur-Audio-Video-Bloc-peritel-RCA-145.html

Hello, can you give me the reference for the male SCART adapter with a headphone jack? My Samsung UE 40B6000 A LED TV doesn't have a headphone jack, and you provided a small connector in the accessories that outputs a female SCART, but without a headphone jack. If you could give me the reference, thank you in advance. Best regards.

pkdem · Answer

Hello,  At Fnac, I bought a small cable with a Scart connector on one end and a jack on the other, which I connected to the cord with the female Scart, and it works very well. It costs about €7. I also use it on my DVD player. Best regards

For my part, I found my happiness on the site nectronix for my TV, there was what I was looking for with a headset that is compatible with my Samsung.

vanessa · Answer

Hello everyone!

I bought this famous cable, with a Péritel connector on one side and a jack on the other. I connected it to the cable with the female Péritel output from the TV (Samsung LED series 7)... and it doesn't work for me... Do I need to do something else in the TV menu? Or should I connect it to the DVD player (which is connected via HDMI to the TV)?
Thank you all!

Tutur · Answer

Apparently, the use of daisy chain sockets only works to redirect sound from a PERITEL source.
So if the source is via HDMI, it is not possible to retrieve the sound except through optical on a Samsung LED TV.

For example, I have my XBOX console connected via HDMI, and I cannot retrieve the sound output from the TV with a daisy chain socket.

If anyone has a solution for this...

Chamois73000 · Answer

The only way is to buy a SCART adapter where you plug the jack of your headphones on one side and the said SCART adapter into the SCART socket of your TV - I had the same problem with a Samsung television to connect a Sennheiser headset (like headphones).

Hello everyone, I just bought the famous SCART with the female jack socket but it doesn't work and I have an LG with built-in DTT   if anyone has a solution

You just need to buy an optical cable / mini jack and it works. It's as if your TV is connected to a home theater system.

Hello, why not simply get a Bluetooth headset with a USB connector?

You just need to buy a special Peritel socket with a headphone connection cable and you're good to go. Cost: €4.20.

Go to the Comptoir Audition website and check out the TA110. I ordered it and it works really well. I was feeling despair because I had tried everything and nothing worked, but then, miracle, everything is functioning!

Hello,
I contacted Samsung and they replied: with the Samsung UE40ES7000 TV, the only solution to have sound both in headphones and through the TV speakers is to use an optical-to-jack converter and connect it to the digital audio out (optical) port when the TV is connected to a TV decoder via an HDMI port.
It's worth testing.

pierrolet · Answer

Good evening,
Since my Samsung TV does not have a SCART socket, I tested several methods.
The one that satisfies me is connecting a jack with a double output to the headphone jack of the TV. I connected the headphones to one and my Onkyo soundbar to the other. The TV is connected to the VooCorder via the HDMI port.
This way, I have headphone sound and my wife has sound from the Onkyo speakers.

Neosurf07 · Answer

Hello everyone! I also got duped and in style! My Samsung LED TV has neither a headphone jack nor an optical input, and there are no RCA outputs!

The solution that keeps coming up here is the famous SCART/Jack adapter, OK! Yes, it probably works in SD, but a screen at this price without HDMI image is pointless...
I've read all the solutions, but clearly, without jack and RCA outputs, there's no way to get rid of this damn original sound that comes out at a ridiculous 10w.

If anyone knows, despite everything, a way to do it, I challenge them ^^'

biancoverdy · Answer

and... they're not crazy like that, you need to buy a soundbar!!!!!!

Hi everyone, don't stress, just buy a Bluetooth receiver with a power outlet for 15 bucks equipped with a jack output, you can connect all your devices to this little receiver (neoxeo in my example).
