    I know I am being silly. I have no idea how to connect my PS4 slim to my bose solo 5 soundbar. what cables do I need?

    On the bose soundbar there is a aux port a optical port and coaxal connector.


    Thanks

    there is no optical out on tv. There seems only to be an analogue connector. I am not sure if ps4 can use some anolgue connector and if so how?

    Slim doesn't have an Optical port.

    Get rid of it OP, sounds awful :D only joking.

    Might be a case of taking analogue direct from TV and removing TV sound.

    You wouldn't be connecting the Playstation with the soundbar, you connect the TV with the soundbar. That's what I do anyway.
