    Default Genius SW-5.1 Surround System +REP

    Hi

    I have a Genius SW-5.1, 1000, 5.1 channel surround system, cool eh?
    Model number: GE60571

    I bought them for my PC, which I haven't used in about a year now, as I bought a laptop, however to connect it to get sound, there are 3 jacks, orange, black, and green.

    Green = Front
    Black = Surround
    Orange = Center/Woofer

    Now obviously in a PC, you can quite easily plug all of these into the appropriate places, but on a laptop there is only 1 headphone jack, which is pretty useless as I can only plug one of them in.
    So my question to you is:

    Is there any additional wires and whatnot I can buy to enable me to plug it into my 1 headphone jack on my laptop and then plug the 3 wires into that so I can have the full surround/center and front playing, rather than a lousy one

    Thanks!

    Here is an image if your not sure.

    We've been trying, we've been crying
    Hoping that they will do more than keep lying
    I need to believe that people can change
    Or else this life has all been in vain
    What's the point of fighting if we're fighting for a lie?

    Cheers mate! It's sort of what I was looking for, perhaps a little bigger than expected and more money haha! But Unfortonatley, my Laptop isn't that good and only has 2 USB slots, and they are both constantly used! I have a dongle ya'see, so that occupies one, and then I have my USB mouse, and thats both my USB slots filled, so I wouldn't be able to use that

    Is there anything like a headphone splitter that would do the trick so that way I can just plug it into my headphone jack as opposed to having to use a USB slot?

    Many thanks!

    Hmmm, do you REALLY need the sub? Unless your watching movies non-stop of course.

    Something like this would work - http://www.amazon.co.uk/3-5mm-Speake...bxgy_ce_text_b

    I'll try find a splitter with 3 thingos

    This could work - http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Rocksta...p_ob_e_title_0

    I found a 3-way splitter but its like $50 D:

    Yeah that should work, but do you want to spend that much?

    I suppose you gotta spend a lot, seeing they're hard to come by.

    That's only $13
    Would things like that work though, because I'm sure they didn't make it into 3 different wires for the fun of it lol.

    No it wouldnt, it'd just be 1 2.0 stream multiplied 3 times, you'd be better off getting what i said and getting a usb hub for the other devices
