does anyone know how to hook up 2 logitech z623's

[Benny2Toes]

i have wanted to buy another set of logitech z623's and have both run at the same time but the only way i know how to hook them up is with a 3.5mm jack splitter and i was wondering anyone knew a different way to hook them up

What's the point of that? If you use a splitter you will have two sets of speakers broadcasting the same signal, and it won't be 4.2, just two 2.1 systems playing the same thing. I guess it works if you have another room that you want to pipe audio in to... (watching movies while you poop?)

If you install a second sound card and you can actually have audio playing from two different sources on the different sets of speakers.

if your sound card supports quad channel, it will work in 4/4.1 mode

what motherboard (audio chipset) or sound card do you have

i dont have a soundcaard yet but i hope to get one for this i guess have any suggestions?

What are you trying to achieve by having two sets of 2.1 speakers running at the same time?

[Benny2Toes]

nothing i just really like these speakers and i can get another pair for 50 bucks from a friend and i was thinking about getting them thats all

with a realtek onboard sound card you can setup a 4.1 config like this
and have a sub for front/rear

that has the realtek sound card

what do you mean by the control pod
setup each sepaker seperately, front set(right/left/sub) and raar set (right/left/sub)
and put both of their volumes at the same level
and use windows volume control to control voth of them

ok i see wat u where saying i just thought because on one of the speakers it has the volume and bass and i thought i could some how control both of them from one of the speakers but controling it from windows is fine thanks for the info man
