Hi friends

As I mentioned in Equipment section, I owned Odessey 5.1 Home theater system and a Creative SB Live 5.1 soundcard.

I have two computer systems

one is Lenove desktop, Pentium-D processor,1 GB RAM, 80 GB HDD,SB live Audio card running Windows XP SP3

another is assembled machine - Core-i 3 processor, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB HDD, integrated Realtek ALC887 HD Audio 7.1 channel running on windows 7 pro

I want to use ( connect ) my speaker pair with both the system, off course alternatively, don't want to play both at same time.But I don't want to plug audio jacks every time when I want to

change my sound source.

I learn from the net that I need Audio switch OR Audio Mixer.

I really need it ? any alternative ?

If I realy need it, please suggest some chip solutions. I am not a professional but home user.

I hope and appreciate help/reply from the experts of our forum. :dontknow:

What speaker system do you have? What connectors do you use to connect it to the two systems?

We need to see links for your speaker system and sound cards in order to know what kind of connections we’re dealing with.

Regards,

I doubt it. This is a stereo only switch.

My mistake, I thought that is what Vimal was looking for.


Vimal, what is your current connection method to your speaker system? RCA, SPDIF, TOS, HDMI?
