Hi all

Im looking at picking up the Altec Lansing 251 system for some cheap and nasty home pc theatre action

For research, ive been reading through the user manual for the 251's.

As I understand it, the 251's amp outputs into 3 3.5mm stereo jacks.

Now, my GTXP has provisions to use the stereo jacks for the front and rear satellites (as opposed to individual RCA's), however it then has an RCA connection for Centre Channel and another RCA connection for Subwoofer.

Im assuming the 251's mix the subwoofer/center channel onto one of the 3.5mm stereo jacks, so Im guessing I need to just get a converter plug to convert it to an RCA style plug - correct?

However, which input on my GTXP do I plug it into? The Center or the Subwoofer channel??

Your advice is appreciated
