Ive got logitech z 5500's and i wanna hook them up to the tv. the only way it seems to work is through the headphones jack and it sounds crap. cant turn it up laod or it cracks. anyone got any other ideas on how i can maybe do something to hook them up a different way or somthing?

I'm not 100% techsavvy and all that on the matter, but seeing as noone has replied I'll give you 2 pence. Now be off with you.







The only way I can think of doing it would be to go:

aerial -> pctv card
then
sound card -> speakers.

I would have thought that speakers such as logitechs and the like were designed to be used with a PC rather than a television. Kind of like using a Ladyshave to brush your teeth - designed for one task, but not another.

You can use the audio out put from your scart socket on the TV, as this is line level. Get a switched Scart to RCA adaptor, then a RCA to minijack lead. And hey presto. I do this, but use the RCA outs on my freeview box into the back of the pc. Rather than taking the signal from the scart socket.

if you havent got line-out sockets then just use the headphone sockets and turn it up on the amp, down on the tv, should work fine.
