Help with speaker connections PC2

9 replies

At the moment I have my standard PC speakers connected to my sound card. I can listen to Nradio, Nmusic and DTV from my Avant on my PC speakers but if I click Radio I have to unplug the speakers from the sound card and plug them into the blanked off socket on PC2.

It's a bit of a pain in the butt keep swapping the plug about. I have a little cable from my sound card into my Hauppuage TV card.

Any advice?

Can you not run a cable from the output of the PC2 to the input of the sound card? I seem to doing something like that when I had a PC.

Problem is that the sound card only has two inputs. One has my Haupp in and the other has my speakers.

I use a splitter - two input sockets going into one jack.

Never thought of that! Couldn't see the wood for the trees. I've loads of other PC2 questions but it won't be long before Santiago joins us so I'm going to save them.

Cheers Peter🙂

As Peter said, a splitter cable is a good solution in this case.
I also used always the PC2 headphones output for the standard PC speakers, you don't need plug-unplug them anymore and it works very well.

What a good idea Santiago, I'll probably mess with that tonight.

I connected my (Altec Lansing) active speakers to the powerlink connector of the PC2 with a converter from DIN/cinch/minijack. All B&O and PC sound sources available without problem!
