    Hi,
    You need to use a male RCA to male jack cable. It looks like this: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71R-10H4f0L._SY355_.jpg

    Connect the left (red) and right (black) RCA plugs into the inputs labeled "CD" on the amplifier. And connect the jack cable to the TV.

    You may need to configure your TV in its menu to use the jack port. Most TVs do this automatically, but if it doesn’t work, check.
    Switch the audio source to "CD" on the amp.

    After that it should work.

      I don’t understand the arrival of the PC.

      Motherboards for PCs are generally more tolerant of the input/output voltage range of a jack. I know this because if you plug certain RCA cables into a jack coming from an amplifier into a phone, the phone can freeze and restart to go into safety mode. Like the TV here. There you go.

    ok
    thanks but I’ve already done that before.
    I plugged it into the headphone jack but it keeps going into safety mode too often and it doesn’t give a good sound feel.
    Thanks

      If you do the same but by plugging the jack into a PC, does it do the same thing? or does it work fine?
