Hi,
I have a samsung curved soundbar (HW-H7500). It worked great while I was living in a small apartment, but now I'm in a larger space and am looking to put together a proper surround system. The layout of the room is such that there is not a great place to mount an in-wall center speaker.
The question is, is there any way to hook the samsung curved soundbar up to a traditional AV receiver to function as a center channel in a 5.1 system (only inputs are HDMI, optical, aux)? To save some time...I know it defeats the purpose, it's an active soundbar, quality, blah blah blah, but (i) I already own it, (ii) it looks great with the TV, and (iii) it avoids a lot of brain damage trying to find a good place to mount a real center speaker in the room I'm working with.
The receiver I have is Onkyo TX-NR838 if that's helpful.
Thanks
