From the question it sounds like you would like to hook multiple components to one surround system. For that you would need an A/V selector ($20 - $40).

---- Setting up a surround system using an A/V selector with multiple components (RCA)

1.) Connect all components to the selectors inputs. This requires RCA (Yellow/Red/White) cables from each of the devices. Connecting the video and audio into the ports that you would like (i.e. 1,2,3,4).

2.) Find the output from the selector. Take the Video (Yellow) and connect it from the output on the selector to the input on the television/monitor. Then attach the audio (Red/White) from the selector into the surround system.

3.) To use a device, turn it on and then select it's appropriate number on the selector and it will switch the audio/video to the TV and sound system.

This same setup will work for any type of audio/video hookups granted the selector must be changed to support the types (i.e. Component, S-Video, VGA, HDMI)

How do you connect Sony Bravia KLV32EX400 to a 5.1 channel surround sound system?

The KLV32ex400 has no surround output capability. The only audio output is a stereo 1/8" headphone jack.

Do you need a professional to do stereo equipment installation?

No, you do not need a professional to install stereo equipments. This is because stereos installation is not very hard. You will require some speaker wires and hook them all up to a receiver. The receiver will then need an audio input from a source.

What is wrong if your DVD player will play background music but not the actors' voices and can you find repair instructions on the Internet?

It's could be because the DVD player is set to play 5.1 surround but you do not have a surround system. Go to your DVD's audio setting and change it from 5.1 to normal stereo. The problem is most likely in your surround receiver. As most DVD player's don't have surround output anymore, your receiver is where you set your speaker configuration. If you don't have a center channel speaker (the one above or below the screen), you must set your receiver to mix the dialogue of the movie to the left and right speakers. How you do this is described in the manual for your surround receiver. When playing back movies, you should select the stereo 2-channel mix from the options or setup screen.

Is there a way you can add 5.1 audio to Auxiliary Inputs?

Auxiliary inputs to a receiver are always stereo. If you have a 5-channel analog signal (from a computer or other multi-channel device), you will need a receiver with a 5.1 analog input. This has 5 separate RCA inputs for left, right, center, sub, and the two surround speakers. An analog output from a VHS-Hi Fi VCR can be input into the stereo aux inputs of a receiver and decoded to Dolby Surround, but this format is actually only 3 discrete channels, left, right, and surround. It has no separate information for the sub or the center channel, and has a limited bandwidth on the surround channel.
