How to combine two stereo inputs into one output?
I have a pair of self-powered Alesis 520 speakers and I want to connect both my xbox 360 and my computer to it. What's the best way to do that? I tried using a $6 audio splitter, but it didn't work out too well because the sound signals from my pc & xbox were both weakened by that type of connection. Do I have to buy a mixer or can I use something cheaper? I want to get good sound and I want something that will allow both the pc & xbox 360 sound signals to come through at full strength but I'd prefer to use something that I don't have to switch on and off or that requires electrical power. I'd prefer to have it be something automatic and passive, similar to an audio splitter but without its signal loss problem. I think I read there's a decent mixer for around $70. I guess I'll buy that if I have to. I may also buy a subwoofer to add to my system, which would complicate things even more. I guess I'll have to have a mixer if I get the subwoofer, right? I used to use Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speakers but I wanted to upgrade to something bigger, so I got the Alesis 520 studio monitors. I can't use a receiver since these speakers are self powered. |
