    Question Setting up two PCs with the same inputs.

    It's a good thought. Thank you. Last PC forum I was on was from PC Format magazine, which has been defunct for a number of years. Nonetheless, if anyone has any thoughts they'd be warmly welcomed.

    Question Setting up two PCs with the same inputs.

    I'd be most grateful if you could help with a potential set up issue, relating to two PCs using the same inputs. My wife has a Lenovo laptop and a Surface Pro 6. The laptop has a USB C connection, so it's easy to run a single monitor, mouse, keyboard and power, through that alone. She also...

    Question Connecting the Hue Sync

    So I've recently purchased a Hue Sync. With six lights in my lounge the initial set up (plugging the Sky box straight in) has been very encouraging, so far. I'd like to run the service though my setup. I have a Yamaha RXA 1070 AV receiver and a 65 inch UHD LG television. Usual feeds in: Sky...

    New Xbox 21st May 6pm

    Were it not for the fact it can't play 360 games I would have ordered this in an instant.

    No bass sound to speakers

    My sincere apologies for not replying sooner. Still didn't get any luck with them. However, my other half said she doesn't like the size so we ended up buying from Richer Sounds in Brum some Cambridge Audio 2.1 set up for about £350 and she's a lot happier now. (I also had to do some SERIOUS...

    No bass sound to speakers

    Thanks for the reply. I've linked to pictures of the info tab, the cable feed and- if it helps- the side, bass speaker which remains silent... http://www.flickr.com/photos/sparksy/8689306891/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/sparksy/8689306987/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/sparksy/8689307105/

    No bass sound to speakers

    Ahh excellent. I really appreciate your support. Apologies if I haven't quite grasped some of the finer technical details here. I've made the suggested changes although there remains something still not quite right, predominately that they are still working as passive speakers. The front...

    No bass sound to speakers

    By that response I fear I may have done something a bit stupid! :oops: These are old, second hand Eltax speakers. Two floormounted with 2 x +/- connections, two rear speakers with a single connection (though not currently plugged up) and one additional central speaker. Am I pathetically wrong...

    Another hello from another newbie

    Not quite. Which way would you go around a roundabout? ;-)

    Another hello from another newbie

    Why thank you folks. I forgot to say; five points if you can see the error with that road sign. It's featured here... http://goo.gl/maps/sm11R

    Another hello from another newbie

    Hi all, Just thought I'd say hello. My name's Matthew (were that not too obvious) and I live with my partner and cat in the Black Country. Not much had a chance of recent to invest in new kit, mainly due to finances. However, as we've just bought a house (two incomes as one.. hurrah!) I hope...

    No bass sound to speakers

    Hi there - first post (hopefully of many)... Just bagged myself a very nice Yamaha RX-V673, which is great. However, slight problem with my (somewhat old) Eltax 4.1 speakers. I've run connections through to the lower ports on the back of the speakers from (what I believe are) the subwoofer...
