How to connect S750 to a Pioneer receiver

My HDTV only has 2 component input. That's why I want to get a Pioneer VSX-050TX receiver to add several more inputs. Since I already have s750 in my computer, I don't want to get another set of speakers.
I'm new to receiver and have no idea how to connect it. What I want to do is that the home theatre and the computer can share the s750. And I can also take advantage of the receiver's decode functions. Thanks!

Most receivers will have 6 analog inputs for 5.1 audio (or 8 for 7.1). You will need two "camcorder connectors" ( http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cg...tem=SP-AVCABLE ) and one "male minijack to male stereo RCA cable ( http://shop.store.yahoo.com/chicagod...autostre2.html ). You can find the second cable much cheaper at RadioShack. Because I don't have 7.1 speakers, I can't tell you what to connect to where, so you'll have to experiment or wait for another poster. You'll plug the minijacks into the soundcard and the RCA ends into the receiver.
You can connect the satellites of the S750 directly to the receiver's amped outputs, using the receiver's amp instead of the GigaWorks's. Plug the subwoofer into the LFE output in your receiver to the subwoofer in on the S750 amp (you may need another minijack to RCA cable), using the GigaWorks's amp for the subwoofer only. Note that many HT subwoofers have their own amp built in and do not use the receiver to amplify them. The LFE out on the receiver is unamplified.

    Hi,
    Called up the apple support services on Dec 9, 2013 and was on line for almost 1 hour without a solution. However, received a call back from team in Singapore on the same day and commitment to revert on the issue within 24 hrs. Received a call within 24 hrs and the entire discussion came down to the point that I have to manually set the grace digital equipment.
    I tried other options and eventually the simplest thing to do was to set the connection option to DHCP only and ignore the error.
    Now its working fine..

  • How to connect my iMac to AV receiver?

    I want to watch movies on my iMac but use Cambridge audio Aero 5.1 speakers through AV receiver Cambridge Audio Azur 751R. How do I connect my Mac to the av receiver? What cables/connectors do I need?
    thank you for your help!

    To do this the right way, get an AppleTV ($59 refurbished from Apple's online store), set up the AppleTV and  connect it to the AppleTV's Optical out to the Receiver & HDMI out to your TV. Then set up Home Sharing in iTunes on your iMac and finally wireless stream movies to the big screen TV from the AppleTV. Anything else is a kluge and won't work as well as  you would like. If you have a 2011 or later iMac  you can also use the AppleTV to mirror the iMac's content to the BigScreen TV.

  • MacBook Pro: How to connect to a Dolby TrueHD receiver?

    Hi there,
    As there are more and more Blue-ray video's coming out these days I decided I want to switch to blue-ray. Since I own a MacBook Pro (model 2009) I need to attach an external one.
    Though, what I wonder is how to get the best audio quality of my mac. Most blue-rays support Dolby TrueHD, and my receiver has an optical in for that. But how can I connect my MacBook Pro to my receiver, so that it truly is Dolby TrueHD (or DTS-HD Master Audio for that matter).
    Thanks!
    p.s. Specific brands or types of cables are appreciated, as I guess I'll have to go to the shop to get something.

    I'm not sure if I'm reading this correctly (as your MacBook Pro can't play Blu-Ray DVD's) but you can connect the MBP Digital output to the receiver using a Toslink cable like this:

  • Connect MBP Retina to Pioneer Receiver no HDMI Audio

    I'm connecting my MBP Retina using the HDMI cable to my Pioneer SC-68 receiver. The video works fine and displays great on the TV, but I don't get the option as to selecting the HDMI as an audio sound output. My only two options are Internal Speakers and SC-68 Airplay, which I figure the two linked up over the network by themselves.
    I can use Airplay mode, but then I get no video on the screen.
    Any ideas? Is Apply blocking the audio on the HDMI or choosing not to support it in favor of their Apple TV?

    I'm also having this problem.  I briefly saw the SC-LX86 (EU version of the SC68, lovely Receiver btw) option in my Sound preferences today after installing an SMC update, but my rMBP froze shortly after requiring a hard reset and the option had gone on reboot.  Very frustrating.

  • How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver. I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. thanks

    How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver? I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. There are 4 HDMI-in ports on the receiver - BD, DVD, DVR/BDR and audio. In my system preferences for sound, the receiver doesn't show up as an output option. Can anyone please advise. (ps, this is my first time posting a question, so I hope I can find your answers!) thanks, JP downunder

    For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA  audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver.  Use something like this:

    First you'll need to restore network defaults on your printer. From the printer front panel:
    1. Press the Wireless button.
    2. Choose the option for Wireless Settings.
    3. Choose the option for Restore Network Defaults.
    4. Choose Yes.
    The wireless light should start blinking again.

    1. Make sure your computer is connected to the new network, and if wireless, make sure the network connection is saved and connects automatically.

  • How to connect apple tv 2 to pioneer pdp s35

    How do I connect apple tv 2 to pioneer pdp.s35 tv? I connected to one of my pioneer receiver's hdmi ports but when I cycle through the inputs I can't find apple tv.  Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I don't have or indeed know anything about your receiver, but unless the Apple TV can see an active device and connect via HDMI it won't turn on. You will need to set your receiver to use the correct input and then turn on the Apple TV.

  • How to connect apple tv2 to receiver

    Apple tv is connected to tv via hdmi - working perfectly. But i would like to connect apple tv to my receiver as well - for surround sound on movies and for streaming audio from the computer.
    My receiver has 3 optical ports in addition to the DVD coax ( CD, CDR and TV) which one do i use to connect from apple tv  - none seem to work.
    Apple TV set to dolby output.
    receiver digital in is turned on
    No sound from the receiver
    Help!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You need to use one of the optical ports.
    Are you sure they are optical ports.
    Are you sure you are matching the input to the output correctly on the receiver.
    Have you tried adjusting the audio out and Dolby digital settings on the Apple TV.

  • Does anyone how to connect the iphone5 to an audio receiver

    Does anyone know why I can connect my ipod to my receiver using the rca cables and the headphone adapter, yet I cannot do the same thing for the iphone 5?  I have confirmed that the iphone 5 works fine when listening via headphones or simply using the phone's external speaker.  Maybe I need a special cord?  Did something change between the old apple products and the new iphone 5?  Thanks in advance.
    Victoria

    I use a pre iPhone 5 Bose headphones with a normal 3.5mm jack plug on my 5
    and works perfectly so there is no mechanical reason why your cable doesn't work
    As kappy says any 3.5mm stereo jack plug will work

  • Pioneer Receiver, can't figure out how to get sound out of it

    I bought a Pioneer receiver along with my TV and Blu-Ray at BB. Hooked it up; Blu-ray and Cable to Receiver (both HDMI) and single HDMI output to TV. Use HDMI thru-put but it won't allow me to direct sound to the speakers hooked up to the receiver. Instructions say to toggle "Auto/Direct" to "Auto Surround" but it won't allow it in HDMI mode. The manual is in Swahili. Anyone have experience and can tell me what to do? I grant you the right to tell me I'm an idiot for not being able to follow the manual. :-)

    You can delete it whenever you want, to use it to restore your new phone from...
    Navigate to Settings > General > Software Update and install any updates available.
    Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

  • How to connect my nokia 6120c to my mac laptop?

    how to connect my nokia 6120c to my mac laptop? i want to use my phone as my modem

    Hi,
    Listed below is the step by step intructions to configure the Nokia device as a modem to a mac. If you receive any cases/questions related to this, please provide the steps mentioned below.
    Steps:
    Connecting your Mac to the internet is convenient and easy with your a compatible Nokia S60 device. You'll need a Nokia S60 device that supports a 2G or 3G data connection (such as GPRS or HSDPA), a compatible Mac (with the latest OS X), a USB cable for your Nokia device or a Bluetooth-enabled Mac, and a network subscription with your mobile service provider.
    To set up your device you'll need to know your operator's Access Point Name (APN) and have the packet data service enabled. For help with this please contact your operator.
    -In the following example, the APN name "Airtel" is used. This name will vary depending on your operator.
    -On your device locate and open the Settings application. This is normally in the Tools folder.
    -In Settings select and open Connection >Select and open Packet data > Select and open Access point >Type in your operator's Access Point Name
    -Exit Settings. Your device is now ready to be used as a modem for your Mac!
    -Bluetooth Connection: Pairing between Mac and Device using bluetooth, follow the instruction from here:
    http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/​device-as-a-modem
    Note: Preferred mode is USB as it much faster than Bluetooth.
    Connect the device and then go to System preferences- >Network- >Select Device (Nokia XXX)
    Click on Advanced Tab > Modem tab
    - Vendor : Nokia
    -Model:GPRS (GSM/3G)
    -Telephone Number: *99***1# (contact your operator to get this settings)
    -APN: airtelgprs.com (contact your operator to get this settings)
    CID: 1
    Once connected it will be highlighted in green.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Cheers
    Sandy
