Beolab 4 pc speakers

Hi all,i have a 26" beovision 8 tv running a pair of beolab 4 powerlink speakers at the front,i have acquired another pair of beolab 4's for the rear BUT the PC version,

My question is:

can i run the standard lab 4's via powerlink and the pc's via the headphone socket and achieve an acceptable sound?

I have tried the pc's via the conversion leads but don't work but do via the headphone connection...

I would expect using the headphone to suppress the main speakers ... Not sure what the alternative cable issue might be.

Are you trying to create a surround sound setup ?

Thats the ironic thing,when the lab 4 pc speakers are connected via the headphone jack it does not suppress the sound on the other 'powerlink' connected lab 4 speakers...

If im not losing any sound quality this may do for me....

Mark, there are special cables for using Beolab 4 PC with Powerlink. Similar to this one: http://picture.yatego.com/images/503f7d37882402.5/f4d8c3625af3ea03fc2e09198eb9ff5d-kqh/-vivanco-adapter-kabel-5-pol-din-stecker--3-5mm-klinke-klinken-stecker-din-5pol-.jpg

 

 Search for it in the forum - there is a thread with this problem!

You're hooking them up the way they're designed to be hooked up, only instead of a computer you're using a TV.  Not sure why you think you'd be losing sound quality.

It is the sound already connected on the other pair of beolab 4 speakers which are connected and still work via powerlink while the pc speakers are connected via headphone socket i was more concerned about....?
