    Will these only work with LG, or will it work with a Samsung?

    AFAIK it should work with any make of TV; you just gotta make sure you have the right outputs e.g. optical out etc.
    Having said that, the customer reviews aren't great on this. If it were me I'd push the budget up to 200 and get a Yamaha:

    It's too small, slim and light to sound good. Nothing to do with being 160W.

    The whole reason that TVs nowadays sound like ass is because they are too slim to fit a decent sized speaker. So buying a 5cm deep soundbar with tiny speakers in a light plastic enclosure to 'upgrade' the sound is fairly pointless.

    True, I bought if mainly for bluetooth phone tunes in the bedroom though, let's hope it does the job.

    This'd require Parcel Motel, but AVF gave it a decent review

    I want to connect this to an old Samsung TV that doesn't have an optical connection. What sort of adapter do I need? Had a quick look on ebay and most of them are for the XBOX 360. It says this is for 42" or bigger but presumably it would work fine with a 32" as well? The sound has got very poor on my 32" so this would be ideal. The bluetooth functionality would be very handy too.
