Is there such a Cable my Speaker System?

I have a Sony 5.1 Home Theater System hooked up to my Audigy 2 sound card, with a Audio L/R to single mini-jack(line out ). Is there a cable to go from the Home Theater System Audio L/R to 3-way mini-jack to go to all 3 line outs of my Audigy 2? And where can I buy it's

The L/R inputs on the receiver will still only be capable of receiving L/R. Unless the receiver can upmix (which is artificial), you can't use those connections to get a 5.1 signal. To send a 5.1 signal you would need a digital connection, those are capable of passing over AC3 signals from DVDs for instance, or 3 analog connections to pass over the sound from the soundcard. You can't send the signals from those 3 connections into L/R only, and have it come out as 5.1

  • I own a Zen Vison: M and am wanting a speaker system for my player

    I know there aren't any docking speaker systems for them yet, and I honestly doubt there will be any real soon.
    So what would be the best way to go?
    My X girlfriend had an I-Pod (poooo) and she had this speaker system.

    Honestly that thing would be the only reason I would go gay for I-Pod.
    What would I have to do to get something close to that?
    A dock: http://us.creative.com/products/prod...7&product=4485

    Wireless remote?:http://us.creative.com/products/prod...Specifications
    The wireless remote confuses me becuase I swear the other night it said it suppotered the Vision: M and now it just says the Vision.
    I've also found this, The Player Dock http://us.creative.com/products/prod...5&nav=features
    But would it be compatible with the wireless remote?
    It's so hard being a creative customer, There aren't any worth while accessories yet.
    Anyway, if anyone could help me that would be great.

    Hi There,?I just bought my Zen Vision M yesterday and so far I'm very happy with it. I had a Toshiba Gigabeat S30 first but the battery was horrid (seems to be very close to the Zune in design and features etc)?then I swapped for an 80GB Ipod video but there is a massi've problem with the EQ settings wanting to clip passed the digital headroom (google "ipod distortion")?Got The Creative Zen Vision M and I can say the following so far:?The sound output is strong and powers my $200 Sony in ear headphones with clean power even with bass all the way up. It's got a custom 5 band graphic EQ which works well to customise the sound to how you want it (I hate the standard MP3 EQ options of most players)?The sound quality is Very Very Good. (I'm a Hi-Fi freak and a competent home recording engineer)?I can see the screen easily even on a hot bright sunny day outdoors on 50% brightness (Very useful)?I have a couple of MP3's that were converted from WMA's and on some players they dont play but the Creative plays them fine. The use interface is easy to navigate but not quite as good as the Toshiba Gigabeat but looks nicer. The FM radio is great sounding aswell which is a bonus and you can custom name the stations. You can set photos as wallpaper and it comes with 6 player skins to customise the look. Battery seems pretty good. when its not locked the screen goes dimmer instead of turning off completely but the battery still seems to last ok. (if you lock it though it will last even longer.)?I haven't found anything bad about it yet. Toshiba Gigabeat S30? 5/0Apple Ipod Video 80GB? 2/0Creative Zen Vision M?? 0/0 so far?hope this helped.

  • Replacement Cables For SB 7.1 speaker system????????

    Hey there everyone,
    I wanted to know if anyone knows where to find replacement cables for Creative Speaker Systems??
    Let me know I have AIM SN Crash95x2
    or email @ [email protected]

    I can't read good, I didn't see your hardware. My mistake.
    I reinstalled my drivers, and that seems to have helped. I think it may have had something to do with Windows XP SP2 or my onboard sound, I don't know for sure though.

  • Itunes 11.1.3.8 shows a speaker icon in front of the seclection but it is not playing. the progress bar does not move. there are speakers attached to the system and all other programs do profuce an audio output.

    itunes 11.1.3.8 shows a speaker icon in front of the seclection but it is not playing. the progress bar does not move. there are speakers attached to the system and all other programs do profuce an audio output.

    Go to the Edit -> Preferences-> Playback
    In The bottom section of the page click the drop down menu by Play Audio Using and select Windows Audio Session or something other than "Direct sound" or whatever it displays. Click Okay. This worked for me! I hope it works for you too!
    Thanks,

    external camera,  av cable input to Ipad. is there such a thing? to record vision?

    How about this workaround buy iPad replacement camera of eBay about £6 open up your iPad remove the camera and extend the wiring out through the case to a female male connector long multi core wire solder camera to the end hay presto one fully functional external camera you will need a very large magnifier as the wiring is xxx small and of course this will void your warranty so I would suggest you do it to an old iPad 2 not your shiny new 3/4

  • How to install my 5.1 speaker system

    Hi,
    I'm going to purchase a new 20" iMac once Leopard is out in October, I will be moving from a Windows PC and would like to continue to use my Creative Inspire T6060 5.1 speaker set.
    I have noted that the iMac only comes with a headphone jack, currently my speakers connect via three seperate jacks into a soundcard.
    What is the best way to connect my speaker system?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Headphone jack on all current Mac models (include latest aluminum iMac) doubles as SPDIF digital optical output as well. In other words, both analog (for headphone/line-out) and digital audio outputs are built into the same combo jack. Same analog/digital implementation for the audio input jack. Alternatively audio output can be sent through USB bus in digital form to external decoder. Thus unlike PC, the compact iMac does have many extra features already built-in.
    All you need is an external 5.1 decoder to decode 5.1 digital output from headphone jack or USB port into analog format with three analog outputs for Creative Inspire T6060 5.1 speaker set (woofer/centre, front L/R, surround L/R). The only such decoder I have come across is Tutle Beach's Audio Advantage SRM (www.turtlebeach.com) though there are many surround audio decoders/receivers (mostly with SPDIF optical outputs) on sale in audio equipment shops. Take note that Creative Inspire T6060 is active speaker (amplifier built-in) whereas outputs from some surround decoders/receivers are meant for passive speakers. The difference is between low line level outputs (for active speakers) vs high amplified outputs (for passive speakers).
    Optical Toslink cable with two different connectors on both ends (standard Toslink / 3.5mm Mini Plug) is required to connect between headphone jack output and external 5.1 decoder input. In case when USB port is used, any good USB cable built for peripherals (printer, external drive etc) will do.
    Since I never play game and hardly watch movies with my new aluminum iMac, only good stereo audio is required for music appreciation with following setup:
    iMac USB port -> Firestone Fubar3 DAC -> Firestone Tube Head Pre-amplifier (vacuum tube) -> Harman Kardon SoundStick2 speaker
    Hope the information will help.

  • How to interconnect Creative 7.1 Speaker system to

    HI All,?I have bought a Creative 7. Speaker system. I have connected it to my TV using the Audio Out (left & right) to the Auxiliary In of the 7. speaker system and now only 3 speakers are producing the sound. The center and the surround speakers have no output. Please guide me on how I can interconnect this 7. system with my TV and get the speakers working. Thanks in advance.Chris?

  • FPS2000 Digital Speaker System

    I currently have an FPS 2000 Digital Speaker System, with an Audigy 2 Platinum sound card on a Win XP system.
    The subwoofer itself has no input jack to connect from the Audigy 2, but there is a Digital DIN connector on the subwoofer that will connect ALL speaker channels to the sound card. Is there a cable available that will do this with an Audigy 2? If so, where can I buy one? Also, I'm currently planning on buying a new Win7 Pro system.
    Will I be able to use the Audigy 2 and FPS2000 speakers in Win 7 Pro's XP mode?

    Ah, I have just found the cable here :-

  • Can a 5.1 PC speaker system be hooked up to a 2009 iMac computer?

    Can an older 5.1 Suround sound speaker system from a Windows XP based computer be hooked up and operate through a 2009/2010 Intel based iMac computer?

    Hello joebono,
    I'm not sure which logitech system you have so I don't know what your setup is. I know on my computer my Logitech 5.1 sound system is USB.
    With that being said there is not enough ports on the computer to connect all the cables to the computer to make a standard 5.1 surround system work. What you need is a speaker system where everything connects to the sub woofer and then you connect the woofer to the computer.
    Alternatively like I mentioned on my own personal system is you have a speaker system powered through USB.
    This thread also discusses the issue you are experiencing.

  • PS3 Speaker system

    Hello everyone,
    I am in the search for a surrond sound system to hook up to my PS3.  I am hoping to buy this as a Christmas present for my husband.  We recently purchased the PS3 and so we do not need a complete home theater system.  However, before we purchased the PS3, we were looking strongly at this whole system.
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/LG+-+1030W+5.1-Ch.+Home+Theater+System+with+Blu-ray+Disc+Player/9258956....
    I have a couple of questions. 
    1.  Is there anyway to maybe purchase this system, hook the speakers up to the PS3, and then use the blu ray player in another room?
    2.  If I can't do number 1, is there a comparible system of speakers in the same price range?
    3.  Is there a completely different speaker system, under $500, to hook up to a PS3 that would give us an awesome sound?
    I am completely out of my relm here.  I do not know a lot about electronics period.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    No matter what you would need a receiver to us speakers with the PS3.  Either your TV speakers or if you want louder, cleaner and a surround sound you would need a Receiver.  You would hook up the PS3 with an HDMI cable to your TV and  a Digital Optical cable to the receiver. 

  • Problem connecting 7.1 speaker system to iMac

    I purchased creative 7.1 speaker system yesterday (Model No: Inspire:T7900). The package contains a cable to connect iMac and woofer system. The cable has 4 pins to one end and 3 pin to other end. According to the manual, I connected the 4 pins to woofer system with the matching colors. Now the problem is how to connect the other 3 pin end to iMac. iMac does have only one analog out, if I connect any one of the plug, only 2 set of speakers are giving the sound and the output switches from speaker to speaker everytime I change the pin. Is there a way to connect all the 3 pins to mac so that all the 7 speakers will become functional. Please help me... I'm very much worried :(:(

    I'm baffled at how you got it to work. I'd be humored to know what kind of loops you must have jumped through to get it going. Humored... and very much interested in the hack.
    I brought one home from a Microcenter today for my PPC Mac Mini (10.5.2) particularly.
    I've tinkered with it all day but it just is not producing any sound.
    The manual instructions do not lead to results.
    It does show up as a device by profiler. Alas Audio MIDI Setup is refusing to recognize the FireWave.
    So I'm out $100 and am looking at another trip back to return it... unless it CAN really work.
    I've emailed Griffin.
    Doesn't work on a 10.5.1 Mac Pro either.
    I cannot find ANY devices that will do hardware decoding via firewire /or/ usb that are supported by 10.5.2 that aren't total overkill for what I'm using it for. This seemed like a perfect solution, but I'm really dissatisfied that it didn't work out of the box and with the lack of Griffin's support.
    So please if you can help me figure this out I'd really be grateful.

  • How can I use a 5.1 speaker system? Logitech X-540 5.1

    I am looking into buying this:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-X-540-Multimedia-Speaker-System/dp/B000LBHFMO
    Although, I am aware there aren't enough ports in order for it to work on my laptop.
    How do I go about getting these ports externally? I mean like, an external sound card? Does such a thing exist?
    Thank you

    I imagine there is, but I can't recommend one. It will need an optical audio input through which to receive a 5.1 digital signal from the MBP's headphone port, and a digital-to-analog converter to provide the analog signal that the speakers evidently require.
    I wasn't able to find specs for the speakers to see how many channels of input they expect.

  • Help on setting up 5.1 speaker system

    Hi there, I have very recently changed over from a windows PC to a Mac (I bought it last week)
    and i was hoping for some help on setting up a proposed 5.1 speaker system. I am looking to buy the Logitech z5500 system and I was wondering if I need any other hardware in order for it to operate without any problems.. maybe things like extra sound card? i understand that there is a digital out slot - what type of cabling would i need in order to connect it up this way?
    any help would be very well received.
    thanks for any time in advance!

    as mentioned above, All that you need is a optical cable (a toslink) and that will provide you with the 5.1 sound output. BUT and this is important, the Game or Movie must support 5.1 for you to get 5.1 sound (not a lot of Mac games have 5.1 output) also you will need to ensure that you setup the right settings on your sound Preference panel. You dont need any additional boxes or cables as long as your 5.1 speaker system accepts 5.1 audio via digital toslink (eg optical cable). the z5500 is suitable and will give you 5.1 sound if used with a game or movie that has 5.1 sound output.
    Good luck and enjoy the sound
