Q: QuestionThe PDF diagram shows 3 audio jack inputs but the one I just purchased only has 1. Why is this and is this going to be a problem hooking up my speakers?

Asked 5 years ago by Robert78.

• A:Answer I combined two speaker systems. I bought the Logitech Z-2200, back in 2003. When I suddenly had to move, in 2007(after having lived there for five years). I took the satellite speakers, but had to leave the subwoofer. Not long after I got to the new location. I bought the Logitech Z-2300. The subwoofer is pretty much the same in both models. The satellite speakers are a different design. I went to an audio store, and bought a three RCA Y cables. The first one connects to the back of the subwoofer. The second two RCA Y cables, connect to the back of the first Y cable. Then I connected all four satellite speakers. The sound is great. I just have make sure I don't shatter any glass with high volume.

Q: QuestionCan i stream movies to samsung smart tv?

Asked 6 years ago by Bj.

• A:Answer Smart TV's have evolved a lot! in the past years. If you have one of the latest models, while connected to your network via Wireless os Wire, it will be available as a display to connect to Windows 10. I noticed, some TV are more friendly than others. You should be able to open Display Settings on the PC and extend or clone your computer desktop to the TV. When the Smart TV is network friendly, it will be listed as a media server, and there will be an action to send the video playing to the TV. Also, Samsung may have Chrome Cast built in, or some models even allow airplay, so you can stream from Apple devices directly to the Samsung TV. Windows 10 is designed to Cast, Stream or Extend Desktop to a Smart TV if TV model allow those functions.
