Hello I have a samsung PPM42S3QX/XSA plasma tv with attached speakers Samsung PSN4230d. How do I get sound to come out? Am I supposed to have some cable from the tv to the speakers? Thanks

If you have a usb input and the set has the correct codecs built in, you will be able to watch a movie. May not work with all files. The usb input on a dvd blue ray will usually work with everything however.

Hello,

That TV is covered under a class action settlement from Samsung due to power supply issues. You should be able to get the unit repaired free of charge by contacting Samsung. You can get more information about the class action settlement here:

With the Samsung PPM42S3QX Power Supply Board is the likely the cause. Testing and diagnosing - Remove the back of the TV and check the voltages on the power supply. The output voltages will be labeled on the board. Look for obvious need for replacement such as swollen caps, bad fuse, burnt components.

try connecting an external amplifier and speakers to the audio out RCA jacks in the back of the TV, aux or tape monitor are good inputs on the amp to use , it sounds like your internal amplifier has gone defective,

It could be the speakers or the main board. The audio circuit is comprised of the main board, speakers and wiring. That's it. I have seen pinched wires cause problems as well as the other components listed above. You can call 1-800-samsung or go to samsung.com to find the nearest authorized service center.

Internal sound board/amp is probably bad. But make sure that the speakers were not turned off in the sound settings menu for the television. You could try hooking up and external reciever to the audio output jacks of the TV and see if you get any audio from there. If you do at least you can still get sound from your tv...even though it is not from the internal speakers.

Hello,

The model in question does not have standard speaker outputs, so there is no way to "directly" wire the speakers up.

Presumably because the TV has built in speakers.

However, you can use the audio outputs on the rear of the TV, Red RCA plug and White RCA plug to drive the speakers connected to a hi-fi system, Surround amp or similar?

The cables are very cheap, available from Argos and the like.

You will notice the improvement in sound.

Does that help?

you need to hook the cables up to the tv if you want sound to come through the tv.

me too i want to know

yes x 40 samsung with it buy hdmi cable for it also u will love the quilt of dvds and suround sound feel 200 best speakers
