Hi all. I wanted to know how do I hook up my ps2 through composite and also hook up my z 5300's to it as well? I want to use my ps2 on my 2405fpw with my z5300's. Would I need a special adapter or something through radioshack? It says its able to be used for game systems and came with an adapter to plug the rear and front speakers into one plug for stereo electronics that cannot do 5.1.

I want to know what colors go to where on the 2405fpw cause the composite jacks are different colors than the ones on the plugs. They do have a yellow one for video which my monitor and plugs match up. Do i plug the audio plugs into my monitor or somehow plug it directly into my z5300's?

Yellow plug to monitor. Composite in I believe it is.

White and Red plugs will need to go to your soundcard via a Y connector (makes the Red and Yellow into one stereo connect which you plug into line in on soundcard).

If you do not have a computer to hook up you will have to see if the z5300's accept the plugs that the red/yellow are (I forget what they're called). If not, your out of luck (I don't think speakers have direct plugs but I am behind on the times).

ok i have one of those plugs. Now when i put the red and white composite plugs into the adapter it connects into one single female plug (im guess since it doesnt have a thing sticking out u can plug into.) how do i connect this to my soundcard cause it doesnt have any male connectors. BTW i use a x-fi extreme music card for my comp.
