1. Is it possible to hook up and run my pc through my reciever? my computer sits only 6 feet from my computer... so there is no reason to go wireless if i don't have to.... but i could go wireless to the front room...

2. I recently bought a vewsonic Va1912wb monitor with a speaker built in... I also have 2 speakers and a sub hooked up to my PC... when i plug in the monitor there is not enough volume and certainly no bass... is there a way to use both (monitor plus 3 speakers) on my computer? or do i even need the speaker on the monitor hooked up... is sounds good right now... i just wanted to use the monitor if i could benift by doing so...

1. PC to Receiver

Use this cable:

http://www.monoprice.com/products/produc...format=2&style=

The 3.5mm stereo plug connects to your sound card and the 2 RCA plugs (red and white) go to audio inputs on your receiver.

2. Using monitor speakers and separate speakers simultaneously

Connect this cable to your sound card:

http://www.monoprice.com/products/produc...format=2&style=

This gives you 2 audio outputs so you can hook up both the monitor speakers and your separate speakers.

thanks for the info... i thought it might be as simple as this... but one time i tried to do my own thing with a car audio amp and fried the amp... didn't wanna do the same here.. ( I will save that story for another day)

When i hook my computer up to fmy stereo i will use the same output i use now for my computer speakers ( green plug comming out of my sound card) or am i to use a different color output?

thanks
