Hooking up game systems to a stereo

[Joe Redifer]

Nah dude you NEED a brand new QSC 400 watt amp... one per speaker. And new speakers. And a Dolby CP650 pre-amp processor to handle it all. It'll only set you back a few thousand.

I got my JVC amp for nothing as it was defective and the right channel had huge distorations and I needed to do alot of work to get it working (back when I was in collage and had full access to the electronic lab) so it I am not going to throw it out just because every so often it doesn't like the high inputs levels I throw at it.

I mean what are the changes that I will find a defective QSC 400 watt amp that I can get for nothing and repair back to a fully (or close to fully) functional state.

Did you take any English courses at collage?

Back on topic. Even with my old TV that had good sound, it still sounds better going through a amp, even going through an old 8-track stereo (Morse 1510) sounds better then most TVs.

Sound products haven't gotten that much better since the 80s. Great stuff from that era still sound great these days. Like old video games .

yess,i just use a stereo to 2 audio Din plugs white and red offcourse works great and i apre the lenght.

I found when I just tried some cheap-o earphones I was still getting sound from my TV, so I unhooked the audio plug on my AV cables (mono sadly ), and then I got all sound through the headphones.

Does anyone else have to do that? Will it hard my stuff? Are you suspost to do that? Sounds great, regardless.

[Joe Redifer]

The connection of the mono AV wire shouldn't have any relation to the headphone jack. Having anything plugged into the headphone jack doesn't shut off the sound going out the A/V port. Having it unplugged certainly wouldn't "hard" anything unless it excites you in some way.

[David J.]

I meant harm.
I had some earphones plugged into my Sega Genesis, and I was getting sound out of the TV, even when using earphones. Should that happen if using AV cables? I had the volume all the way up on the Genesis. When I was playing in RF back in '93, and borrowed some headphones there was no sound coming out of the TV.

When I removed the audio plug (white) on my AV cables I was getting all sound (Genesis and Sega CD PCM) out of the headphones. Is that how I am suspost to do it?

[Joe Redifer]

On my launch day Genesis, it makes no difference. Sound goes through all outputs no matter what at all times. They may have changed the Genesis 1 somewhat so that inserting headphones blocks the audio from the AV port. Why they would do this, I don't know, but they also removed the high definition graphics.

[David J.]

Wait a sec. Your saying that sound comes out all inputs no matter what? So if you have headphones plugged in, the sound will still come out of the TV on your system? That's what's happening on mine, so I just unplug the audio plug on my av cables. I'm getting some speakers after work tommorow.

[Joe Redifer]

Dat's wut i b sayin yo. There is no harm unplugging the audio connection. I never even bothered to plug it in after awhile even though I hate hanging cables.

[ary incorparated]

yeah you can better buy yourself some decent/good speakers the this problem is gone i hope for you, BTW buy this cable with it and it wil work fine.
