I have the bluesound setup ready with the soundbar, the sub and 2 pulseflex (first version) to make an home theater 5.1. I'm looking to buy a projector (BenQ tk800) wich have only the connection below.

to

I want to connect it to my soundbar and have the best 5.1 sound possible durong movies. I know it will be at faux 5.1 but what would be the best way to connect it. Will I need a converter? A specific cable?

On the projector, i'll connect a PS4 and the TV cable 

 

Thanks for the help!

  Hello Alex,
  
  

  The Pulse Soundbar has an Optical input and Analog RCA input available to connect to your audio sources. From the image you provided, I believe only the Audio Out will send audio from the projector to your Pulse Soundbar. Since the Pulse Soundbar uses an RCA analog input you will need a 3.5mm to RCA cable or adapter to connect these 2 devices.

  Ok, and will i'll be able to have a kind of surround sound with RCA analog input? 

  If not, should I look for projector who provide optical audio out? Does the opticial audio input would provide a surround sound or it will be the same has the RCA analog ?

  Because I hesitate before buyiing projector between the one that I showed up BenQ tk800 and the Optoma UDH50 wich have those output (with optical out) ... i prefer the BenQ tk 800 but if I will have a better with optical... i could choose the Optoma model

  

  Thank you
