yes if you run them in sequence.receiver to #1-#1 to#2-#2 to #3 and so on.however sound quality will be affected.not recomended.
That depends. If they're computer speakers and all your wires are headphone-jack style, then all you do is run the headphone wire from your speakers and plug it into your computer speaker input on the sound card, or a headphone jack. If they're not computer speakers and you want to wire component speakers through your computer, you'll need a receiver to power them, speaker wire to go from your speakers to the receiver, and a cable to go from your receiver "input jack" to your computer. That cable should have a red and white RCA on one end, and a headpone jack on the other.
Typically one would hook up 2 - 4 speakers. But, keep the impedance correct (resistance, for lack of a more complicated definition) by wiring speakers in series and/or parallel and theoretically there is no limit to the amount of speakers, 6 - 8 should not be a problem.
One can find more information about purchasing an AV receiver and surround sound set of speakers by visiting an electronics store and speaking to an employee there. These employees are usually very knowledgeable about topics such as this.
yes, you can, either via a Y-cable to the sub output, or via a pre-amp, or hook them up parallel to a mono amp or if you have a 2 channel amp then just hook them up regurally but if you have a mono amp then...have two positive and two negative wires coming out of the amp then hook 1 negative wire up to the negative spot on a speaker..then do the same with the other..then do the same with the positive
on factory wire harnes, there are 5 speaker wires. 4 are (+). on speakers, but only one (-). when i hook up aftermarket head unit do i hook up all negative speaker wires together
No, the speaker has a negative and positive port, they both need to be plugged into for it to work. if they aren't, then the speaker will not create sound
If you are just hooking up a sub to a home theatre system, all you need is 2 cords. One will hook into a typical power outlet, and the other will hook from your sub to you receiver.
The SONY SA-VS350H has seven speakers (two floor-standing front satellites, two rear speakers, one center speaker and a slim 150W subwoofer).That seems to be the closest to eight we find.
The direct answer to this would be, no. But I think you might be asking the wrong question. To get surround sound to play your television programs you would need to put your cable/satellite box through the receiver. As a side note: There are two ways to do this. 1. If you receiver supports video pass thru (which would mean that there are VIDEO IN jacks and VIDEO OUT jacks) If not then proceed to the next option. You will hook up everything from the cable/satellite box to the receiver and just one cable, which will be the video signal, to the television. 2. You will hook up only the audio cables to the receiver and a single video cable straight to the television.
No, the output of most DVD players are analog stereo (front channel only) or digital optical or coaxial. The DVD player must be connected to a surround sound receiver, and then the front and rear speakers can be connected to that.
Ideally you want them behind you with one to the left of you and the other to the right. You can do a search on the net for surround sound speaker layout and you'll get a couple of examples as to where to put them. If you have satellite speakers for the surround (these would be the smaller speakers) than you will want them mounted on the wall (with speaker mounts due to the positioning of the speakers) so that they are pointed at the location you will be watching television. This goes for all the speakers. The receiver should have a set up feature that will either have you inputing information as to the location of every speaker (distance in feet the speaker is from where you will be sitting) or if you have a higher end model than you might just have to plug in the mic (will come with the receiver) and put it where you will be sitting and let the receiver run through a series of sound checks to figure out the best settings based on your positioning.
You need some vinyl to go with your turntable.After that you just need an amp(or receiver) and some speakers.
