The speakers should not be a problem. All the sockets are labeled left / center / right / left surround / right surround and subwoofer.
Connect the yellow composite video out to the TV's yellow composite video in . Along with video out of the Curtis you can connect two red and white audio out to the TV's audio in socket.

There are NO audio or video inputs on this device, so how would TV-audio get into it for amplification? It's NOT really a Home Theater System, but a DVD player with speakers.

I'm having the same problem and have found the manual to troubleshoot at Curtis's site - http://www.curtisint.com/web/products.asp?brand=CURTIS&subCat=HOMESYSMJR&catName=DVD%20HOME%20SYSTEMS

you need to plug rca cables into the audio out of your tv providing it has them then go to the setting menu in the tv go into the sound options and turn on surround sound

as far as hooking up your blu ray player to the sc-pt660, the only real way to utilize the surround sound (with true surround sound) is through the optical audio out. You need to connect your blu ray player through hdmi to your tv and then connect your blu ray player to your surround sound using the optical audio out/in. I, personally have the sc-pt660 hooked up through component cables so I don't waste an HDMI input on my TV. Except for cd's, there is no reason for you to use the actual dvd player part of the surround sound considering you have a blu ray player. In conclusion, hooking your blu ray player and the sc-pt660 up to get better video simply isnt possible (your blu ray player alone gives the best possible resolution, 1080p). As far as audio goes, run an optical audio cable from your blu ray player to your sc-pt660 to get true surround sound.

we had to hook sound cables from DVD player into digital cable box, not tv and now surround works in tv mode as well as dvd.

You will need audio cables to connect the output of the TV to the input of the unit.

i have no sound through tv only the dvd
