Connecting the S750 subwoofer to an AV reciever

Is it possible to connect the S750 subwoofer to an external AV reciever? And what output on the reciever and what input on the subwoofer in case it works?

Nevermind, I managed to figure it out myself. It worked.

Connecting a Different Speaker to the S750

My computer decided to create an error that shot a high pitched garble throughout my speaker system. Needless to say thankfully it seems it only ruined one speaker the center channel.
The center channel only produces sound from its midrange woofer now. If there is a fix for that i'd love to hear it.
For now i have an old sony center speaker to replace it with. Just curious if its ok to connect a different speaker to the s750. Its power rating its around 70watts rms.

Any 8 ohms speaker will work! Or you could just get the MC100.

Good afternoon,
I have a set of 5 speakers and 1 subwoofer 5.1 from Altec Lansing and I would like to connect the 3 exit cables - 1 black + 1 green + 1 yellow - to my new i-mac 22" - acquired last week - equipped with only 4 USB 3.0 + 2 Thunderbolt + 1 Ethernet + 1 jack for micro or speaker.
What connector type do I need? And where can I connect ot?
Many thanks in advance for your help
Best regards

Sorry you cannot
That speaker system is for sound cards on PC's which separate the channels, the Mac's don't seperate the channels or decode surround sound formats and only pass the 5.1 through the dual analog/optical stereo mini port.
You might find a external device that accepts Toslink optical inputs and then separates the channels and sends the appropriate signal to the powered speakers.

I bought Noal Gallagher's High flying birds on my i-phone 4, it stated that when i next connected to the i-tunes stoes i would recieve the deluxe version. I never did, is there a way i can actually get it without paying a again?.

I almost forgot that using folders can allow each folder to contain a song. I also recall touch tracks or one key play...

A solution to the S750 speaker system problem

Well my s750 died just like everybody elses. But after creative wanted me to pay 75% of my purchase price, I found a better solution. Nope, I am not fixing the unit like you guy's. I do not see the need to fix a poorly design system! I am not sure if creative or indigo/bash/blade audio is to be blamed. But if I had to pick, I would say "indigo/bash/blade audio". Years ago before blade audio became indigo, I had a chance to visit their location in ontario Canada. This was just when they stop making the blade audio car amps.
While I was there, I happened to see this long list of brand names they had started to make amp modules for. Names like Harman International, Klipsch and so on. Anyway I cast the blame on indigo for this reason: Some years ago I had purchased a set of "harman international" infinity IL series speakers. Like our creative s750, the infinity shares a bash powered subwoofer system. And just like the s750 the infinity subwoofer like to blow up too! In the case of the infinity, the power supply was the weak link. The amp module in the infinity at that time, was built just like the blade audio car amps before. Which in my opinion is a much better design than what is being used in the s750. I remember one of the sale guy at circuit city at the time saying, "I wish we would drop this model". He went on to tell me the failure on the powered units were very high. You know there is a problem when the mid level Creative Inspire T7700 7.1, out last the flagship s750. Now, whats my better solution you guy's want to know? Two words , Simplifi Digital! The 7075a 7.1 amplifier along with Definitive Technology Pro Sub1000 and the remaing surround speakers from my s750 system. Yes, it did cost me more to go this route. But what I now have is a much more reliable system. And a sound that the s750 can only dream about. My s750 died while I was listening to Dave Bruebeck quartet "take five" at mid volume. With my current setup, I can listen mid volume all day long with no hiccups.
For those who my have the cash to spend. I recommend looking at my direction!? Keep this in mind, make sure whatever powered subwoofer you choose, is adjustable up to 50hz. The creative surround speakers dont play very well below 20hz. Also make sure whatever powered sub you choose don't use a BASH amplifier. For those looking at the s750 as a purchase, good luck. Or go over to partsexpress.com and get the Dayton Part Number 300-670, surround speakers. Then get the simplifi digital 7075 7.1 amplifier and power subwoofer of your choice and make a better/best system. Sorry Creative Labs! This post is NOT intended to cast negativity. I use and like the products you offer. I just do not like the s750, and the reasons are all over this forum and elsewhere on the net. I currently own 3 audigy 2zs sound cards, three Inspire t7700 speaker system, three sound blasters modems and yes, one defective/dead s750 speaker system. If anything use this post as a positive to what Creative Labs could offer in the future. A system like I now have, sure would be nice with the Creative name all over it.

My system specs below. What I have now simply blows the S750 away. And this is mated to my Audigy 2zs card. I am tempted to try my Terratec Aueron 7.1 universe which does sound better than my 2zs. The Simlifi Digital amplifier is one serious unit. This amp has one HUGE toroidal transformer inside of it! I was able to see it thru the vents on top of the cover.

How to connect Gigaworks S750 with AUDIGY 2 ZS

Hello,
I'm a french user so please apologize for my bad english ;-)
Well, let's talk about the problem.
I've bought a GIGAWORKS S750 (occasion) and AUDIGY 2ZS. I tried to connect them but i'm having problem. Let me explain :
The cable used to connect the GIGAWORKS to the Audigy 2zs have 4 plugs on each side. On the subwoofer i connect the pink/green/black/grey and then on my audigy 2 zs i have to connect 3 plugs (black, grey & pink). But there one more (the grey) which is "alone" and i'm not able to connect it on my audigy 2zs. Moreover, I don't have sound "side" when i used the THX Setup Console, and when i make a test the Rear speakers correspond to the Side speakers...
So my question is : is there something wrong with the cable i used to connect the gigaworks to my audigy 2zs ? (as i'm able to connect 3 plug on my audigy, why is there 4 plug ?!).
The guy who sold me gigaworks have maybe forget the good cable ?!
I can post a pict of this cable if needed !
Any help would be great...;-)
Thanks,
Florian

well, if you buy a new set of gigaworks speakers, there is a special cable in the box to connect the audigy 2zs (3 to 4 pin connector), which I also use, because I have the same setup.
you should contact the person you bought the set from, and ask for that cable.

Gigaworks S750 Subwoofer

Can another subwoofer be attached to the Gigaworks S750 Speaker System? Or additional speakers? Basically, I have a set of Creative Inspire 6.1's and I would like to hook them up to the Gigaworks S750 Speakers if I get them, is this possible?

why would you want to do that? If you connect a cablesplitter to the cable connecting the center/sub, you can redirect it to another subwoofer. but you might try placing the sub in a corner first, cause using splitters and such isn't an inprovement to the audioquality

Connecting the canon SX50 to HDTV for video playback???

Connecting the canon SX50 to HDTV for video playback???
ok, Got this Camera, like it, except for a few confusing issues. I was told, in order to playback HD video onto my HDTV Samsung, with an HDMI4 on the left side of the TV, all I needed was a HDMI to HDMI cable.
(#1) Shut off both TV and camera, plug the cable into this HDMI plugin, turn on the TV and Camera power supply, and it should recognize, then start paying.
Well, I did it both ways, (#1) shut off,then turn on, and (#2) I just inserted the camera's HDMI to the HDMI4 while both were on, and tried opening up the Samsung's' Tools >Inputs, etc, and still nothing!
Is there an easy way to accomplish this?
The second issue i'm having , is how to shut off the slow motion playback, when viewing the videos, which were not recorded in slow--mo, and it's frustrating trying to playback in normal speed, but instead it plays in slow-mo.
I'm not quite sure I'm recording in full HD...The payback is only 60i

Thanks grazie!
Well, i accomplished most of that and at least got the video on the display (Samsung Anynet HDMI3) But no sound!
I was also able to control the SX50 TV Display with my samsung remote, kool.
As far as the playbgack volume, I checked the camera, I did notice the OPERATIONAL SOUND was off, but when I played back the video on the camera itself, i did have volume.
On that subject of Slow motion videos, if i'm watching each video, then see one playing back in slow-motion, does that mean i actually filmed it in slow motion, without knowing? ( i can send it through Pinnacle Studio 15HD and speed it back up, but theres no background volume anyway) if i did unknowingly videotaped in slow motion, i bettter be more observant in the future.
I'm going to increase that ''Operational sound'' on the tools / Camera and try to playback to see if I have any sound.
I have a Yamaha 7.1 reciever, and TV, BD player,Time-Warner cable all is connected to this receiver....I was pushing all buttons for inputs to see which one would work for sound with video, but could not find any. Thanks, or grazie grazie!

Connecting the Audigy 2 to a home theater sys

I've seen a lot of posts on this subject, but have seen a number of different answers. Hopefully I can get a definiti've answer...
I have an Audigy 2 ZS card (ordered as part of a Dell E50) in my PC and want to connect it to my home theater system. The home theater system has both analog, digital coax, and digital optical inputs. I want to get the best possible sound quality coming out of the PC to play music, thus I would like to have a digital connection between the PC and receiver.
The question I have is specifically what type of connector do I need to make this digital connection. I have seen people mention using a regular mini-plug to RCA connector, but didn't really say whether that got a digital signal or not.
I've looked on the Creative web site a bit, and saw some cables, but didn't know for sure which one was the right one. Please advise specifically what kind of cable I should get for this.
Thanks.

You will have to ask the store if they have a 3.5mm minijack to RCA cable. Somewhere within the Getting Started program of the Audigy 2 ZS Sound card they have a section which shows you illustrations on how to connect your sound card to different setu
ps.
The digital connection will give you the purest stereo signal for your music, but you will not get surround sound unless you are listening to a surround sound?digital feed which the Home Cinema Recei'ver can understand (i.e. Dolby Digital, DTS, or regular PCM). This means that unelss you are listening to DVD Videos?with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtracks, you will only get stereo sound out the speakers, no multi channel EAX, no DVD Audio or CMSS either. Best thing to do is to connect the sound card to the Home theater system using Analog Mutlichannel input. Get 3 3.5mm to 2 Phono Cables. Plug each 3.5mm end into Line out ,2 and 3 on the back of the sound card. At the other end of the cable, match the 2 phono plugs?to the respecti've sockets on the home cinema amp. For example Line out is the front left and right speaker so just match white with Front Left and red with Front Right. Line out 2 - white goes to Rear/Surround Left and Red goes to Rear/Surround Right, irrespecti've of the colour coding on your amp.
Line out 3 - white goes to Center, red goes to Subwoofer, irrespecti've of the colour?coding again?- am not too sure on this one so be ready to reverse the connections if the speaker test comes out wrong or the "Front Center" voice booms out of your subwoofer!?By connecting it through multi channel analog input, the sound card will do all the decoding, so you can enjoy CMSS, EAX, Neo:6 and any other multi channel pleasure that the Sound Card provides in all its glory. The digital connection will provide purer sound but NOT surround sound unless you invoke a multi channel source such as a Dolby Digital or DTS?DVD, this is of course assuming you have set up the DVD software to correctly channel the sound to the SPDIF out and then set the sound card to passthrough SPDIF signals through digital out!?Good luck and hope that hel

How to connect the Airport Extreme to Windows 2003 network?

Hi there,
I recently bought an Airport Extreme. I plugged the wired cable to the Airport that previously was in my MacBookPro and gave me access to our Windows network.
What do you need to do in order to access the Windows 2003 network from the Airport Extreme?
Thank you very much in advance your help!

Thanks Tesserax!
for your support..
I changed it the way you told me..
it is very simple... and sounds very logic..
But after I did changed it in the correct IP address of the server
and I changed the IP address of the Internet Router (this was a must concerning the AP utility)
1> the internet was slown down..
2> the server was not reconisable by the iMac.. he gives the server a PC status ?!?!
3> the connection was poor and was not found in the AP network
very strange so I changed it to the old version
is there really no option?
perhaps with the DHCP? or with the Internet router?
FYI
I have:
1: Internet/ connected with a HUAWEI router, recieved from my internet provider
2: connect the Huawei router with the AP Extreme Router
3: connect the AP Extreme router with the Server NAS
4: AP Extreme router is the basis.. and from there I do have an Apple Airport Network

Can S750 subwoofer be turned off?

Hi All,
I'm interested in buying a 5.1 or 7.1 system. I currently have a Klipsch 4.1 system. While I can turn the volume down on the subwoofer, I can't turn it all the way down to zero. Can the S750 system's subwoofer volume be turned all the way down so that it is off?
If not, is there another 5.1 or 7.1 system that allows this?
Thank you,
Bob

the S750 has a power switch on the back, however, do remember that if you use this the control pod will reset.
so if you have turned down the volume and adjusted bass etc to your liking, turning off the sub on the switch will reset it to the defaults

I want to Sync my iPhone 4 to iTunes however I get an error message from iTunes each time I connect the phone to the PC saying that I should restore to factory settings. Frustrating because it's already annoying enough that I can't drag and drop mp3's!!!

I have never been so frustrated before in my life with any phone. I find it obnoxious as it is that I cannot simply drag and drop files (especially MP3's) straight from my PC directly into my phone, which I have been used to doing up until now. Everyone who convinced me to get the iPhone has instructed me that my frustration can be fixed by downloading iTunes and syncing it all up via that program (which I have never used before). So, I downloaded the program successfully, however when I connect the iPhone 4 to the PC and iTunes is open, I get an error message that 'iTunes cannot read the content of the iPhone "iPhone" and that I should go to the Preferences tab of the iPhone and select 'restore' to restore this phone to factory settings. First of all, I don't understand why I need to do that. I have already downloaded apps and other important things in the 2 days that I have the phone. I am also scared that it will erase my contacts. This is such a headache. Music is very imporatant to me, but I am getting so frustrated that I don't have freedom over the phone which I thought was supposed to be one of the best out there. I would really appreciate help in this matter. I am sure the phone is great but I am on the verge of taking it back and getting something else.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:

Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.,

Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.

Absolutely!
Install Splashtop2 on the PC and enable it to be controlled or ran from iPad or Reflection to simply allow iPad to serve as PC unwired monitor. With Splashtop and an Apple TV connected, you use the smartboard as usual, yet the PC and iPad can see the same content. The impaired child can even interact with the Smart Board via the iPad as if he were writing directly on the big screen. Erasing functions can be done by touching the Smart Board manual controls. Several variables are in play that cause this lack of functionality:
    Apple won't permit PC software that infringes its proprietary apps.
    Smart Board companies refuse to develop iPad apps because they feel threatened and are being replaced by iPads
    School districts think Apple TV is meant for copyright infringement and could expose them to safe harbor lawsuits
    Network administrators make it impossible to login Apple TVs because they don't want the streaming occurring
    Classrooms are not able to keep up with the technology of using the iPad
    Clicker companies refuse to play with iPad because they see it as a potential threat to their core business clients
    Apple is not working as hard as it could to exploit its capabilities in education, thus losing money in iPad sales
The bottom line is that we educators and technology developers are hurting our childern with petty conflicts.

As soon as iPod is connected the iTunes close with an errror

Now firstly yesterday i had a crash caused by a dealay in processes and after that my i tunes library went blank, luckuly my music was safe and soon i restored it. After i connected the i pod it asked me to reSync the ipod becuase it appeared to be tied to another iTunes library. After i did that the Itunes closed and gave an error message saying that it has unsuspectably closed. After i got it up and running i connected my iPod again which made it think for a while after which it gave the exact same error message. I used the 5 steps which did not realy help because i cant get my iTunes and iPod running at the same time. I decieded to probe the problem first by reinstaling the iTunes which did not have any effect whatsoever on the system or the problem. A thought came to me that the problem might be in the iPod itself and that i should try somehow to reset it to the default settings, because my itunes would not work i got my pc to reset the ipod to the defaults. After which the iTunes did not like my iPod and got the exactly the same error message again. Seemingly i had already renamed and tied my iPod to another library so that would mean that the problem is in the iTunes or the computer itself. Thus i tried to reinstall the iTunes before i tried again but this time insted of "Renewing" it wanted to completly wipe out iTunes to get a fresh start. So i ask you if threr is a way to fix this or atleast tell me how to completly wipe it out!

I suppose if you enabled disk use, stored it on in the iPod, then copied the file to the computer you're wanting to play it on. If you mean directly from the iPod to a TV... no.
