Juba310 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 I just unhooked my boston acoustics BA_____'s (i forget the exact model number) speakers from my old computer, and was hoping to hook them to my cd player. The speakers are a 2.1 system...two satelites and a sub with digital output. When i plug my speakers (one plug) into the cd player I get no sound from them. Any idea what I can do to fix it? Help is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 the boston acoustics speakers all require a digitally encoded signal (similar to the signal used for single cord 5.1 systems). ya it's stupid for stereo, but that's how they were made...basically, there's nothing you can do to fix it unless you wanna drag around a digital decoder and find some way to power it. i think it'd be cheaper for you to just buy new speakers. (or a nice pair of headphones) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrWho Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 a friend of mine gave me the same speakers (or similar) and i was tryin to experiment with surround sound stuff, but it didn't work cause my sound card couldn't do digital out AND analog out at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
