I have two main questions here, the firs tof which is: The receiver has the following inputs: 1x FM antenna 1x Ground 1x AM 1x "Pre-amp subwoofer" RCA 3x Stereo RCA Line inputs 1x Coaxial Digital 1x Optical Digital Since it outputs directly to the speakers, that looks like this: http://www.sellabrate.com/EbayPhotos/6460p.jpg My problem: The 5.1 Speakers I already have set up, which I really like, have three 1/8" plugs for their input, because they are designed for use with a computer. My question: Can I simply strip the three 1/8" wires into their 12 individual wires and connect them to the twelve shown in the above picture? If I did, would the speakers reproduce the sound like normal? Howabout the sub? Would this just effectively add another volume control? (the my current speakers have built-in) |

The receiver I am interested in has a digital coaxial in (thats the orange one, ight) and an optical digital in. My DVD Player has optical and digital outs. Is it okay to connect: Optical digital out on PC to optical digital in on my receiver. Coaxial Digital out on DVD Player to coax digital in on receiver. Would this produce true 5.1 sound from both the PC and the DVD Player? |
