2 Separate speaker system setup ?
« on: March 29, 2004, 01:26:35 pm »
Maybe someone can help me out with this.  I want to set up two separate speaker systems - one for a jukebox using my existing stereo speakers and one for mame, using computer speakers.  I don't want to use the stereo speakers for mame because I want the sound to be limited to just the cabinet area.  I want the jukebox however to be able to be listened to throught my gameroom.  I was thinking there needs to be some king of a/b switch like is found on a receiver, but wasn't sure how to hook up the computer speakers to the receiver.  Any ideas.  Thanks

I would think you leave your computer speakers plugged into the sound card and run line-out to the stereo (assuming AUX input there).  Then if you are playing games, either have the stereo off or switched to something other than AUX, such as FM or CD.  Then when you are using the cab as a jukebox, switch the stereo to AUX.  You would also hear the the sound over the cab speakers using this method.
