a/s/l? Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I've googled it and such but..... I have a digital tower/cd thingy with 2 bitchin' speaker hooked up to it. In the back of the digi tower/cd thing there is a little thing that says "VIDEO/AUX IN" under which has 2 holes for input....named "LEFT" and "RIGHT". Where in my house can I find a cord to hook up my laptop to said holes via the headphone port? Or what cord do I need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 You need a RCA pair to 1/4" jack. Radio Shack has them, spend a little bit of cash (at least $10) and get one that won't wear out or sound like shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a/s/l? Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 THANK YOU! Any chance of finding one in my house? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomentIsNow Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I doubt it. I might have an extra one if you live in Toronto. It shouldn't burn that big of a hole in your wallet if you get one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Sorry, I meant 1/8" plug. Here's a pic....also you're going to have to make sure the sound sends to the headphone jack and not the speakers. Usually this is automatic but in this case it probably won't be because I said it was automatic. And turn down your stereo. And you can get them ANYWHERE. Seriously, most drug stores have them. Radio Shack is open till 9, as is Best Buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomentIsNow Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Shai, you running a system in your house w/ that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcs Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 dont let ASL disconnect your system from your laptop. It will never work again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 No, but I've DJed parties with exactly the same arrangement. It's not ideal but it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shai Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I copied that out of the Google bar without really paying attention. "Sure, trust me, I know what I'm talking about!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomentIsNow Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Aha my amp in my basement takes 1/4" jacks. It's pretty damn old, still decent outage. Rattles the hell out of the kitchen ;] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
