Connecting the speakers

Hello. I have a Dell, impressive Altec Lansing ADA995 THX 5.1 audio system of survey and I'm trying to understand whether it is possible to connect this sound system for my laptop? If Yes, what is the best way to go to maintain high sound quality? Thank you!

Hello. It depends on what model of laptop you have, as there is a lot of variation between models. If you have a model with 3 audio jacks then you should be able to use the speakers. I would like to know the complete model name and give you the instructions to configure it for 5.1 audio output.

If you have a laptop with only an audio port unique helmet then you will need to get a usb sound card that has 5.1 audio jacks in order to use the speakers.

  • Pavilion 23tm - connect the speakers but connection problem

    I have a Pavilion 23tm connected to an Asus S550C laptop. I did not like speakers of the flag so I wanted to connect a pair of Bose multimedia speakers.

    To use the speakers, I can't use the HDMI cable to connect the monitor to the laptop but would need to use DVI monitor. The problem is that the laptop is not a DVI input (it has VGA) and the monitor does not have a VGA input.

    Is it possible to bypass the monitor speakers by using the HDMI connection?

    Or what should I do?

    DOH! Figured it out. Is there an easy way to disable the speakers to the monitor using the software.

  • Connect the speakers (or Bluetooth)

    I have an iMac 27 ", using OSx 10.11.4 and I was wondering if or how I can connect speakers to the iMac (not bluetooth). Doesn't look like there is a port on the iMac to do, specifically my Altec Lansing that I used for my previous PC. But they don't small rca type connector (to the). I'm guessing that these work or not able to connect to my iMac?

    Also, I have a bluetooth wireless speaker, I can use, noticed but after I have pair it to use, if I close the bluetooth screen it "unpairs", that means to use the speaker bluetooth every time, I need to keep it open to the bluetooth screen (and just minimize it)?

    Also, on the bluetooth screen, I see a pair of speakers I can pair supposedly, who do not belong to me. I wonder if this is one of my neighbors close (I live in a condo). I don't want to try to pair it and try to use it, not knowing what might happen. I also see it says that my iMac is now detectable also, did mean others nearby can see that on their list? If so, can they do something or try to open it in some way or somehow? Sorry for these questions, I am a fairly new mac owner

    Thanks to you all!

    If your Altecs have a stereo 3.5 mm mini-plug you plug into the audio socket / headphone in the back of your iMac.

  • Connecting the speakers front and motherboard MXP

    On Monday, March 21, I collected my mobie from service after the replacement of mothervoard Center and now both my SIM slots work. At sea I got 6.0.1 update that I've updated quickly. But since the update my melodious sound of the front speaker disappeared. Its cracking and the sound is now similar to some low-quality speakers.

    When I went to the DEPOT, he was about to be closed and some other preparations of new furniture service center was present. The environment is dusty. This could be the reason behind the issue of quality of speaker?

    Is the replacement of the motherboard, nothing to do with the sound, or something is wrong with the 6.0.1. Anyone faced with this its problem of quality after the 6.0.1 update?


  • Pavilion 25xi: connect the speaker Hp pavilion 25xi

    Hello.. I have a problem, connect the speakers supplied with the monitor of 25xi Pavilion. The connection on the sheet of paper supplied with the monitor shows that the speakers can be connected using the adapter. However, the power adapter has no provision to do so. Or the monitor has an audio input jack. Displays the the laptop HDMI cable but without sound. Have I been delivered with an incorrect power adapter or that the sound can be activated through my portable speaker? Help please...

    Hello

    The screen itself has nothing to do with external speakers

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=Oq5EJUV9Rqw

    and you have to deal with external speakers as of different devices, not a single unit with the monitor. What is the model of speakers? Normally, they should have their own power supply, and you must connect directly to your computer, not through monitor as you can see in any case no port.

    Please try to connect the speakers DIRECTLY using the helmet on your laptop. I think it's a promotion complement (or throw in). Speakers and monitor function as two different units.

    Kind regards.

  • Can I connect my ipad to a type of ordinary boom box and play music through the speakers?  The boom box has an audio jack.  So would simply use a 3.5 mm plug going both ways?

    I have an ipad4.  Can I connect it to a boom box type device to listen to music on the speakers of the box.   using an RCA type plug/plug?

    The iPad lacks a RCA type connector. You can connect from your headphones to an auxiliary, if it works with the headphone jack.

  • Re: Satellite C660: Sound through the speakers when the headset is connected.

    I have a brand new 258 C660, running on Windows 7.
    Playback device: Realtek High Definition Audio

    * Whenever I have headphones or external speakers connected via the 3.5 mm jack plug, sound still comes through the built-in distant.*

    Here's what's happened so far:

    When I plugged the external speakers were first, I was asked to choose if I had plugged a headphone or speakers. I selected "speakers" and then also, perhaps foolishly, choose "do not ask me again".
    Now, I can't to this selection again.

    Here's what I've tried so far:
    -Reboot
    -Try different headphones, try them on other devices
    -System Restore (not, for some reason any)
    -all settings via the sound control panel

    Basically, I think that I am looking for a way to disable the internal ATAPI Jack when the external Jack 3.5 mm is used.

    I am aware, there was a similar thread some time ago, but the problem may be slightly different and perhaps due to the fact that I chose "do not ask me again". At least, I hope this isn't a hardware problem...

    Thanks in advance for any advice

    Don t think there s hardware issue.

    Try this:
    Connect the headphones.
    Go to the control panel-> Sound-> playback tab
    Here, you should see the speakers and headphones.
    Now choose the headphones and set this default value.

  • No sound from the computer with connected generic speakers VISTA SP2. Symbol pregnant shows active with the Digital Audio device.

    I have vista SP2, I connected to generic stereo speakers using the green light at the back of the computer. Vista does not recognize the speakers. The speaker symbol at the bottom right shows "digital (HDMI) 2 high definition output audio device." It shows active. I had this problem before, and VISTA should pick up 'speakers' something to that effect. I have no sound until it captures "speakers". I can't get VISTA to recognize this. It keeps starting with the digital audio device. Don't know what to do, checked all the forums. It should just pick up these simple generic markets good speakers. Before SP2, I lose sound when VISTA is in standby mode. He would then turn off the stereo speaker and replace the digital output device driver... However since SP2 I can't get VISTA to recognize that I have just connected speakers and not a digital output device.

    Yes, when I uninstalled the driver, THEN shut down the computer and then restarted, he picked up the device high definition audio "speakers" good pilot is NOT the

    "digital (HDMI) 2 high definition audio output device that he used to pick up."

    I now have sound!

    I hope that it stores the right driver now as in the past, when VISTA went into sleep mode, it will disable the speakers, and you have to restart every time.

    Thanks for your help.

    You can add instructions to boumediene, the fact that you must RESTART your computer to search for new drivers, once you uninstall.

    Hello

    Take the receiver the most out of the image and connect the laptop directly to the TV. Does your sound work now?  What SW you use for audio/video playback? MediaSmart? Try this also - disconnect the cable - release MediaSmart - plug the cable and then try again.

    Press Fn + F4 to switch to HDMI only. This action refreshes the screen, transfers to the screen from the laptop to the external display and audio now comes from the HDTV sound system.
  • Sound appear through the speakers connection adapter to Satellite P300

    I have a Satellite P300 and every time that I conect the connector AC/DC for power I hear a sound in the headphones or the speakers.

    This sounds like a terrible sound and I use the p300 to work with sound and I need help to lose this sound.

    Can anyone help me?

    Hello

    It's very strange. Are you sure that the sound comes from the speakers and not AC/DC adapter?

    For me, it sounds like a hardware problem, but before moving on to an authorized service provider be sure that the latest version of the BIOS is installed. You can download it on the Toshiba site.

    If it doesn't work you should contact an ASP. The technician can check this.
