New member Username: IncurablegeekPost Number: 1 Registered: Dec-12 | Briefly my system has: 1) 2 Sony SS-B3000 Bookshelf Speakers - Front Wall Mounted 2) 2 Polk TSi500 Floorstanding Speakers - Rear 3) Klipsch SW-350 Subwoofer - Rear Floor 4) Denon AVR2112CI Integrated Network A/V Surround Receiver Problem: What is the optimal way to connect the Subwoofer to the Denon Amp? Why a problem. Well, the Subwoofer Sound In on the back of the Denon Amp is for Fiber Optic and the Klipsch Subwoofer does not have a Fiber Out. Purpose of the System: I listen to jazz while working on the computer and therefore have the system set up in stereo mode; not for traditional 5.1 Channel AV See attached snippets. (Note: Unable to attach snippets although I have shrunk them to fit on a pinhead. Sorry.) Thanks for any help and my apologies for such a stupid question. Although I am "old" to computers, I am "new" to AV. Question: I am told that I need to present an "argument" to bold, underline or format text. How and where to do so? |

It was just good old RCA, so I bought: 1) 25 foot of cable 2) Cable splitter I found what I needed over at MonoPrice. Once again, sorry to be such a PITA.http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10236&cs_id=1023603 &p_id=2683&seq=1&format=2http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10236&cs_id=1023603 &p_id=6261&seq=1&format=2 |

Used to connect a sound bar, it is a way to restore at least minimal sound quality to your TV since the modern set sounds no better than a clock radio. This drives the net cost of a decent set way up. I've never seen a sub connect w/optical. Somewhere buried in the sites 'helps' are instructions on how to do all sorts of stuff you'd think would be easy but requires proper formatting. |
