    Solved! the color coded plugs from the subwoofer are not the same colors as the ones on the rear of my PC...How do I know which ones t

    Typically, the SW is one connection and is an orange colored connector. The LF/RF/C/LR/RR are likely to be coded individually. Take a pic of your end connections and post it here.

    new car has bluetooth...had cd player in old car...how can i now listen to my cds via bluetooth in car

    Either that or spend the money and replace the factory head unit with one that has both a CD player and BT. One will be far cheaper than the other.

    5.1 or 7.1 audio from TV to PC

    You're already getting audio from the TV over HDMI. Your headphones aren't designed to play actual 5.1/7.1 positional audio based on the fact that they use processing to replicate it. That's the whole "virtual surround" part of it. In order to play full 5.1/7.1 audio as it was originally...

    Headphones: One for Music/Movies, one for gaming?

    "Best" is going to be highly subjective. What will matter is your price range and/or any brand loyalty you may have. Sennheiser makes some nice cans for sure, but so do Audio Technica and a host of others. You also need to take the type of headphone it is into consideration as the design will...

    Solved! My cable connector broke off how can i hook up a tv anttena

    Cutting a re-crimping a cable for your antenna or for your box isn't a difficult chore by any means. If you'd rather not take that on, as has been suggested, just buy a new cable and you're set to go.

    Headphone sound quality decreased after I threw them

    It looks like you're in the market for a new headset or pair of headphones. Temper tantrums break gear and cost you money. Exercise a bit of restraint next time and accept the fact it's just a game. You'll be happier, your gear will last longer, and you'll save money in the long run.

    Noise Cancelling Gaming Headphone?

    You're not likely to find something like what you're looking for and if you want a noise cancelling set, you're going to have to go with a standalone mic. That said, the sound reproduction in a dedicated set of quality headphones would be better than any "gaming" based set be they noise...

    Facebook page is bad loading with Chrome ?

    Interesting. Do the items that are taking a long time to load eventually do so or not at all? FB is a beast unto itself and with a host of issues. Your using WiFi could be just one piece in a much larger puzzle. :/

    Subwoofer buzzing sound

    I just thought I'd ask seeing that powerline internet has been known to cause issues like you've described. It's always worthwhile to rule out as many things as possible before coming to the inevitable solution that your worst fear may be realized: Your amp is dying or something is creating a short.

    Facebook page is bad loading with Chrome ?

    It could be your use of the VPN that's causing the lag. Have you tried using Chrome but without being behind the VPN? Have you tried an alternate browser for the sake of comparison? Lastly, what kind of connection do you have to your Internet: wifi or hard line connection? Are you on cable, DSL...

    Subwoofer buzzing sound

    How do you have it connected? Is it plugged directly into a wall outlet or a power strip? Do you use powerline adapters for Internet in your house or is there anything near the sub which could be contributing to the interference/buzz?

    Connecting LiteOn DVD recorder to new vizio d24f-f1.

    To properly display component video, a cable for it will be required. I don't think using a composite video cable will work if plugged into component.

    Connecting LiteOn DVD recorder to new vizio d24f-f1.

    If your TV has multiple inputs, there has to be a way to select between them with the remote or on the set itself.

    I have a Hisense 32" TV and there was a storm last night that caused a power outage , I tried to turn the TV on the next day a

    Your PSU in the TV could be dead. Also, if you have it plugged into a power strip, the outage may have caused the protection circuit to trip and you simply need to reset your strip. How do you have it plugged in? Strip or direct wall connection?

    Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Over-ear Headphones

    Both of the choices you've made are good in terms of quality and reputation. I have this pair (though not in wireless) and can first hand vouch for the sound reproduction as being top notch: https://www.audio-technica.com/cms/headphones/70fcffbb14c297c5/index.html They're a little above your...
