DTT 3500 Help Me Please!

Can anyone please help me how to connect my DTT 3500 speaker system to my p.c.,I'm a dummy when it comes to electronics,I recently bought these from an auction,with no instructions as I have a FPS 1000 with 2 speakers dead,however the DTT3500 are far more superior and I would dearly like to fit these instead. what I have is 4 sattelites with jacks, centre and woofer with clip ons and jacks, optic cable, I think is called a tandem cable with green(looks like p-c.plug) on one end and a red and white jack on other end,a transformer with plug to something and a remote control,I think I am missing something.
My FPS 1000 speakers plug into the back of the woofer which is so much simpler, can anyone out there help a music lover pensioner.

Dtt 3500 - Can't choose Dolby Digital DIN / PCM Audio

Hey all,
I've had a DTT 3500 for quite some time now and I was always very satisfied with this surround system.
I recently bought a new 7.1 System for my computer and now use the DTT 3500 along with my videobeamer to play Playstation 2 and XBox games... the soundoutput from these devices works perfect.
My problem is as follows:
I would like to use my DTT 3500 from my computer too, I hooked the DTT 3500 up to my Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS soundcard with the "digital cable" that came with the DTT 3500. I then choose 5.1 speakers and "Digital Output Only"... but I don't hear any sound coming from the DTT 3500.
According to the manual I have to choose "Dolby Digital DIN / PCM Audio". When I try button with which one would accomplish that, I fail as I can only select Optical and Coaxial... I never get a "green light" next to "Dolby Digital DIN / PCM Audio".
Does anybody have the same problem?
The Audigy 2 ZS works wonderful with my 7.1 system and if I uncheck "Digital Output Only" I hear sound, all no problem... also, if I use an AC3 source (eg. XBox 360) I hear sound from the DTT 3500... I just have a problem hooking it up via digital output from my PC with Audigy 2 ZS...
Please help, this is driving me nuts! (And I tried to get it to work all sunday long... )
Cheers
Onkl

onkl0r,
Try disconnecting and then reconnect the DIN cable again. The speaker will need to detect a DIN connection first before the DIN option is selectable on the speaker end.

Connecting DTT 3500 to Audigy 2

HI there,
Hope someone can help cos I'm going mad! I am trying to connect my Audigy 2 to my DTT3500 speakers. For a long time I have had them conected to my DVD player and as a result have lost the pc adaptor cable that came with the speakers. So, I ordered a 4-pole minijack to mini Din/RCA cable from Creative, as this was the solution suggested by every site I looked at.
However, having just received the cable I have found that the cable has a female RCA connector and a female mini din connector - the same as the DTT 3500
Does anyone know where i can get hold of a converter so that I can finally play my games in surround!!?
Thanx
F

flangie,
From what you wrote, I think you might have purchase the wrong cable. Did you purchase this cable or this cable 2. Cable 2 should be what you need for the DTT3500. Cable are meant for the DTT2500 speaker and FPS2000 speaker.

Finally got my Cambridge DTT3500 DTT 3500 working in 5.1 surround on my iMac!

fyi, just got an iMac and was struggling to get 5.1 surround sound using my Mac with my old faithful DTT3500
So I'm posting this just in case anyone needs to know how to get the DTT3500 to work with an iMac:
- Cable: Belkin Pure A/V Digital Optical cable with Mini-Toslink adapter (available from Apple) but there are other similar cables available on the market.
- Connections: iMac audio out (Mini-plug) to optical in (Toslink) on the DTT3500 (using the supplied mini-toslink adapter with the Belkin cable)
- DTT 3500 Settings:
*Set/toggle the "Creative Multi Speaker Surround" button to "Fourpoint/5.1"
*Set/toggle the "Dolby Digital/PCM Audio" button to "Optical"
*Set/toggle the "Multi Channel" to OFF i.e. both "Line In" and "Digital DIN" are off(dark)
*Set/toggle the "Dolby Pro logic" button to "Digital In"
NOTE: you can change the "Creative Multi Speaker Surround" option to your desired audio purpose if you don't want surround e.g. Music, Stereo, etc. but when you want surround sound again just remember to reset the "Dolby Pro Logic" button back to "Digital In" since it gets toggled OFF when you select anything other than "Fourpoint/5.1 DIN" (using the "Creative Multi Speaker Surround" button) and it DOESN'T TOGGLE BACK ON again when you re-select "Fourpoint/5.1 DIN".
That's it!
At least I can hold off buying some new speakers/surround processor for a while, since I'm now broke after buying the iMac

Well I'm not using Vista I'm using XP SP2 and I have the same problem.
On the windows sound control panel there is a button called speaker volume. when you click on it you get a bunch of sliders with channels -8. Ive discovered that if I move the master sound control in any of the Creative Sound modes software Entertainment/Audio Creation or Gaming the channel sliders in the windows control panel numbered 3-7 all go to zero which stops the surround sound working. It leaves channels and 2 and 8 alone which can be changed with the sound control in the creative software.
Even checking move all the slides together option on the windows control panel is cancelled as soon as I twitch the main sound control. It's driving me nuts. I keep thinking I must be missing something really obvious here but alas I can't think what.
Ive tried lots of different solutions to no avail. Interestingly when I tried to use the autodriver update thing on the creative web site it said that i am using Vista and you'll have to download manually. Which I did and still didnt resolve my problem.
Sorry no solutions just more problems lets hope someone can help!
Edit - Just discovered - I have XFi Pro if I use the I/O Console volume dial it works fine, but if I use the software volume control it all goes wrong. Think I posted in the wrong thread as well as this is vista but it just seemed so relevant.

Lost the cables to my DTT 3500

I am currently the lucky owner of a DTT 3500 sound system and a SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS soundcard, my problem is that I seem to have lost the cables I need to produce digital sound.
From searching the internet I've discovered that I need to use the Digital Out port of my soundcard and the Digital Din input port in the DTT 3500, which also seems to require a bit of converting.
Thus my question is: Which cables/converters do I need to buy to preserve the digital quality and achieve 5.1 surround sound?
Thanks in advance

I have a DDT 3500. While I really love that setup and sound from it, I developed some issues with my optical input stopped working in the decoder. So the speakers and everything are all sitting in my garage and I replaced it with a DTT-100 Decoder.
To answer your question:
You have to have a Digital Din cable. I will have to look at the documentation because I cannot remember if the digital din plugs into the sound card or the sub woofer. I thinkthe Digital Din Cable goes from the sound card to the DDT3500. Maybe someone can chime in here and help confirm what I am posting.

Help needed please, with Iphone stuck with apple picture and progress bar after software update attempted

Help needed please, everytime I try to update the software version on my iphone it comes up with a message saying it could not be completed and is now frozen with the apple picture and progress bar on it. Do I unplug it and hope the macbook pro sees it again, I also stupidly did not back up before starting the download which I realise I will have to go back to the previous back up. This keeps happening, everytime I do this type of update, I'm starting to think I should just give up on updating my software on the Iphone. I thought it was happening because I was using a window based computer to do the updates, this time I used my Macbook Pro. Please somebody help

Hi silvano,
If you use a regular pattern when entering values, press enter (return) after entering the last value in a row. That will take you to the first Body Cell of the next row.
Start in Cell B2
1 Tab 2 Tab 3 Enter
4 Tab 5 Tab 6 Enter
7 Tab 8 Tab 9 Enter
Now you are ready to type into B5 .
Another way that some people find easier is to enter one column at a time
Start at B2
1 enter
4 enter
7 enter
etc.
Now start with C2.
Use whatever suits your work flow.
Regards,
Ian.
