Hi there,
I have a fairly (perhaps very depending on your viewpoint! - 7 years old maybe?) old-school, basic home audio system for my PC consisting as follows: with a subwoofer under my desk and two table top satellites all by Logitech. I have broken the knob off the satellites so cannot adjust the volume anymore!
A friend of mine happened to have a spare pair of functional Logitech satellites (newer but not very recent models), which they were happy for me to have so I now have these in my possession and am wanting to swap in and out the dual satellites as a direct exchange, whilst retaining my original subwoofer (there isn't a second one in the picture).
Sounded simple enough.. Wrong unfortunately, because I hadn't appreciated that the connector on the end of the new satellites is a 9-pin serial (presumably for connection with a more recently designed subwoofer unit), whereas my subwoofer has a receiver for a 9-pin MINI DIN receiver (what was on the end of the original 2 broken satellites). This 9-pin MINI DIN female receiver seems to be a fairly obscure connector as I can only primarily find adapters for converting from female serial into male ps/2 6-pin versions and 8-pin versions of MINI DIN.
I have been looking online for adapters / converters and combinations thereof to try and think of a possible solution that could make this setup work. Can anyone please help me further in this vein as I have come to no avail?
Hope that all makes sense. I will be very grateful for any help.
Thanks a lot in advance and best season's wishes!
