Sorry guys, Not too up to scratch on some of the terms for audio and their inputs, outputs, etc.
I certainly know a lot about the standard inputs/outputs... Line In/Out, Aux, RCA, and so on. But I have a question I'd like to ask and I may be fairly noobed in nature here.
I have a Pioneer HTD7 System... it's a home theater system. In the back, it has two plugs for each speaker... subwoofer, centre, left, right, rear-left, rear-right. It's those black/red clips with a positive and negative current. Does that make sense? The system has standard inputs like S-Video, RCA, etc - but I don't think there's any for surround sound.
Anyway... I also have a Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic sound card. Is there anyway I am able to plug in one or more speakers using those positive/negative clippy plugs into my computer? Clearly it'll involve a converter of some sort. If you could just point out the options here, that'd be great.
Just ask questions if you're confused or want to know more. Thanks!
Regards
Rhys Andrews
