Hey Eq_Shadimar Sorry It took so long to post my results. (I didn't get around to trying it out until now heh heh can you say L-A-Z-Y!) I went with the second approach and it works like a dream!! You are right, with no subwoofer in the DVD multi-channel set up the promedia's pick up the slack and route the bass to the subwoofer. IT SOUNDS AWESOME especially since it cost only $16.00 for wires from radio shack. The only problem now is with the DVD's and CD's sounding as good as they do right now I am starting to dream of a REAL home theater. HMMM.....soundproofing, maybe wireless....Klipsch or Bose.....OH GOD, My wallet is groaning already heehee THANKS A TON for your advice Peace M This message has been edited by TiedUpInSpeakerWire on 09-14-2001 at 04:42 PM

Thanks alot for the info! One last question tho' My new DVD player has a built in Dolby digital decoder and virtual surround sound. It can handle surround sound but I think what I am getting from your reply is that once you use a y connector to merge the front left and right channels into the front 1/8" connector of the promedia you lose the channel distinction?? (same applies for the rear channels) Is this correct? Thanks again M

Hi, I have a set of promedia v.2-400 speakers that I got for my computer. I have given up on video games and am looking to use these speakers for audio on a tv/cable/dvd player setup. (I dare not call it a home theater) I am sorry for the complete lack of knowledge here, but does any one know if this is possible? I am thinking 1/8" port converter to be able to hook them up to my DVD. Is this possible? will the converters ruin the left\/right channels? etc... etc... please be kind, for I am not an audiophile or ever even thought of a home theater before. I guess you got to start somewhere..... thanks for any suggestions M
