I recently go this logitech 5.1 surround sound set, and I thought I gotta find a way to hook it up to my computer, and to my xbox too, so my question is simple. How.
plug the 3.5 mm plugs into the sound card's outputs (there's 3 of those wires, you gotta have a 5.1\6 channel soundcard which has 3 outputs).
the rca plugs on each speaker plug into the subwoofer, and the one big wire with an end that looks like a ps/2 plug plugs into your subwoofer as well.
then plug it into the wall.
to hook it up to the xbox you need an rca(female)-to-3.5mm(female) adaptor
I know how to hook it up, but not how to hook both up at the same time, and have some sort of switch over thing.
shoulda explained more :P
well you could use 3.5mm to rca cable to plug xbox into your computer's line-in. then you can just play games and listen to music at same time. ( i like this way).
or buy\make some sorta switch... radio shack would have them.
isn't it kinda of obvious how to make a switch? if not then ill make a guide for you. :P
So what your saying is you want me to think, thanks ass, =p. So lets plan this out the speakers came with a game thingy for xboxs etc. And into there goes 3.5mm jacks So If i get some 3.5 mm jacks and some speaker cable, and some DPDT switches,and solder the switches to the wires, so its like an ab thing.
