Hello

Can anybody please help me? I have a little problem (who doesn't). I want to connect Logitech Z-5500 and Z-2300 together. How should I connect this two systems? I'm using Club 3D Theatron Agrippa DTS 7.1 PCI and Vista OS. Is the way that I use digital Z-5500 for movies, and 3,5 Jack's for listening music? How should I connect 2300s and 5500s cables? Y conectros mybe? where ?

Thank you very much for anwsering

BTW: I'm so sorry for bad english :ange:

That looks like the Auzentech Explosion, call the manufacturer and ask if it can support for Digital and Analog output signal at the same time by their driver. The on board soundcard like the Realtek AL850, supports digital and analog signal output at the same time. With that, connecting the Digital signals to your Z5500 and analog to your Z2300 is easy. So hopefully, card having a chip that came from the same manufacturer, A driver would have been made for such operation.

If not supported, get a y splitter and connect the Z5500 orange and black mini-plug to your sound card (Center/Sub and Rear). Next is to connect the y cable to the front channel of your sound card and both green cable of the Z5500 and Z2300 to the Y cable. This you're only using Analog signal. If digital signal is required then all you need to do is connect one to your Z5500 but the Z2300 may not work depends on your Theatron card features.

Soundcards with the C-Media OxygenHD chipset are capable of simultaenous analog and digital output.

If that's true, too bad sharkNM audio card is one model below the C-Media OxygenHD chipset. sharkNM you might want to check X-Meridian or the same card from different manufacturers.

You don't need the splitter. You can just use the sound output from Z-5500's Control Unit where you can see the music note and connect it to Z-2300. Voila!
