om... I'm looking for a reasonably prices way to connect my PC to my stereo to play MP3s. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Your audio card should have line-out connection that you can feed into your receiver (the tape-in, aux-in, or any input not being used (except phono). You will need a cable that has a stereo mini jack on one end (for the audio card), with dual (L+R) RCA jacks on the other end (for the stereo). Depending on how far away you computer is from your stereo, it might be easier to purchase a portable CD/MP3 player to hook up to your stereo. |

Thanks Simplest is to run a cable from the "line output" of the computer's sound card to the auxilliary inputs of your stereo amp. This will generally require a converter cable for 1/8" phono plug to dual RCA jacks. A far more elegant (and expensive) solution is to buy the SliMP3 device. The software runs a server program that delivers the MP3 music over a wired or wireless ethernet connection to the SliMP3 device. The latter plugs into your stereo and is controlled by a remote. You can select and play music from your computer over your stereo, using the remote (or also controlling it from the PC.) I bought the wired version and have been very pleased with it. Perfect for me since the computer and the stereo are in different rooms and the distance is too far for line level stereo cabling but no problem for ethernet. -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |
