Hey everyone. So during these past months I began using some music hardware that had been lying around my house, pretty much unused for literal decades, and now I'm looking into creating a simple audio setup (with a turn table) for my small room.
First of all, let me list all the hardware I have at the moment:
Unfortunately though I only have an AUX to triple RCA cable (red, white, yellow) lying around. I thought it shouldn't be a problem, so I just used the red and white RCA cables, connected them to the AMP just like in this image and connected the AUX end of the cable to my PC, first in the green line port of the MOBO and then to the normal 3.5mm headphone jack port.
Unfortunately though, after connecting both speakers to the power AMP, only one of them worked and played the audio from the PC. I tried lots of things such as completely removing the CD/USB unit and connecting the RCA cables from the PC to the INPUT port of the amplifier. Of course I tried lots of things from Windows settings as well, but the problem persisted. Only the left speaker would play.
I was also able to replicate the same exact problem by using a YAMAHA RX-V367 AMP and another computer and the speakers are working just fine, so it's probably a Windows problem.
So yeah, I would appreciate a lot if someone could help me solve this
Additionally, 2 last things. Does anyone have any suggestions on basically the best pre - amp I can buy for my turn table for under 35 dollars or so? I'm located in Europe and these are the ones I've been considering:
And if such a method works, out of curiosity, what would happen if both the PC and turn table played audio at the same time? Would the AMP prioritize one of the two inputs or something like that?
Sorry for the large post and thank you so much in advance.
I have replaced your preamp links with ones that have the referral tags removed. We do not allow those.
