Tip 1: How to connect a subwoofer to the active speakers
Active speakers have their own amplifier, so connecting them to the subwoofer it is rather laborious and requires an individual approach. In this connection, the compatibility of the devices is initially checked, and after that the process of their integration is carried out.
Instructions
1
Determine whether the existing subwoofer can be connected to the active columns. To work together, both sound devicesmust have a dual stereo output and power channels. Otherwise, your venture will not succeed. It should be noted that the active speakers do not need additional software when the subwoofer is connected directly to them.
2
Get it on the radio market or in thespecialized audio store audio cable "pigtail", which has a double RGB connector, which is popularly called "tulip". In this case, on the second side, the cable should be presented with bare wires.
3
Connect the RPG wires to the columns and subwoofer. Active speakers are connected via"Tulip", and a subwoofer - through a special slot for connecting passive speakers. In this case, it is necessary to observe the polarity | R | L || R | L |, otherwise the system will not function. If the subwoofer does not have a latch type connection but a tulip connector, then a double audio cable with a double RGD connector is used at both ends.
4
Plug the subwoofer into the network, while activeThe speakers will operate in passive mode. Otherwise, if the speakers are powered, there may be a conflict between amplifying systems, which will lead to a background of sound reproduction or the failure of acoustic devices.
5
Connect the subwoofer to a personal computerthrough a special output and check the operability of the acoustics. If the sound does not appear, go to the "Volume Settings" or "Mixer Setup" menu and check that the audio playback devices listed therein are correct, as well as other volume settings. You can also check the compliance of the sound drivers in the "System Properties" section - "Device Manager".
Tip 2: How to connect an active subwoofer to a computer
Connecting an active subwoofer to a computersomewhat different from the installation of a conventional sound system, here you can not do with a conventional audio adapter, since the subwoofer connection requires an additional connector.
You will need
- - Acoustic wires.
Instructions
1
Read carefully your soundcard, or rather with its outputs. Count the correspondence of their number to the number of columns. If you have an additional output to the subwoofer, there should not be any special problems, however, if there is none, you will have to turn off a pair of speakers. It is best to turn off the side, but it remains at your discretion. It is best to check each of them in turn and choose the best combination.
2
If in your sound card the number of outputs isor more than the number of speakers together with the active subwoofer and there is a connector for connecting it, connect the special speakers to the acoustic wires, fixing them on special terminals. Screw the other ends of the wires to the main speaker device, usually they are attached to the rear panel using the same terminals.
3
Connect the speakers to the audiocard, connecting the main unit of the speaker system with the corresponding outputs using wires with jack-connectors. Connect the active subwoofer to a special connector on the sound card.
4
If your sound card does not havespecial subwoofer connector, connect the speaker system in the same way as in the previous step, only connect the subwoofer using special wires instead of two speakers. If there are not enough connectors to connect all devices, reduce the number of output devices.
5
If you have never connected an acousticsystem, entrust this matter to a knowledgeable person and familiarize yourself with the connection sequence of the wires. If there is no such person in your environment, find the detailed instructions for connecting the acoustics to your sound card.
