Sound System Speakers

Just got a new TV/ sound system with 4 speakers, and the men who set it up said they wouldn't say where to put the speakers until I had time to try different positions. So there is all this fine silver wire lying around the join between the walls and floor. What's the best way to lay them down now I've decided where the speakers should go? U-tacks? or plain pins?

Most people like to hide the wires.

You can hide under a carpet, or run under the floor or in walls, or run in plastic wire channels that stick to baseboards, or even get flat wire that can be painted to match the wall.

If you don't mind them running along the edge of the room you don't have to fix them in place except where they may be a tripping hazard .. just push them into a handy crack. If you do fix them in place use staples designed for telephone cable (two legs with a padded plastic cross piece). Don't use push pins because you risk shorting out the two conductors and this can ruin your amplifier.

i bought a new creative 4.1 sound system when when i try to connect it to my built-in sound card in my intel motherboard only 2 speakers are functioning the other 2 aren't my sound card contains 3 places a green one a blue one and a pink one speakers/phones/microphone my sound card supports 5.1 speakers please help
D101ggc
that's the motherboard model

What i did was plug everything in and change the settings of your sound card. That should do it. All the 5.1 means is that it can support upto 5.1 speakers. Also make sure everythings turned on and you've put the right wires in the right places!

if the surround sound speakers are hooked up to the TV, does the TV speakers actually work, or does the sound only come from the speakers of the surround system?

That depends if the problem is with the speakers or with the audio section of the TV or perhaps in the tuner. You should get a estimate to see if it can be fixed. A quick try of a surround sound system could not hurt, but it is not guaranteed to work.

I own a 7.1 Receiver and 7.1 speaker system, I have some more speakers in my house and I was wondering how do I add speakers without damaging my system, do i add anything like another receiver, how should i go about this?

Chickie, you are about as clear as mud! Do you now have 7 speakers + a sub hooked up and want to add MORE? If so, why? If not, what are you trying to accomplish?

1.Harmon Kardon Speaker
2.Altech Lansing
3.Bose
4.Sony
