moh.vze.com Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Is there a way to hook me up my logitech Z-5500 to xbox360 and keep the 5.1 surround? Note: I'm a newb when it comes to "hdtv's" all I know is my parents have one in the living room. I'm going to borrow my friend's xbox 360, so I havn't even hooked up the xbox to the tv yet. What exactly would I need to have to hook all of this up?

crazyfrazz09 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 does the z5500 have an fiber optic input? if so the 360 should have a fiber optic output and you need the proper cord to do this. then use the component hd cords from the xbox to the tv so you will have sound from tv and your surround.

Reaper Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 5500 has the fiber optic. just use that and your good to go. don't need to hook it up to the tv just the 360. we did it on my brother's its on the component cable. there's a little cover you take off and pop the fiber optic cable in there. and you'll be good to go.

crazyfrazz09 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 yup thats what i did as well but i also hooked up all the component cords to the tv too so it still has sound. my wife is not as enthusiastic as i am so some times it just gets audio from the tv so i dont wake the whole house up!!!! lol Quote 1998 jeep grand cherokee future teardown and rebuild: 2-15.4 orion hcca's sub amp undecided 2 sets of components 1-concept amp (mids/highs) undecided h.o. alt 2-yellow tops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
