Hi!
I'm planning to hook my SoundBlaster Live Value up to my Onkyo HTS-650 receiver. The proposed gameplan is
to attach an adapter to a digital coaxial cable, hook that into the SoundBlaster, and hook the other end of the cord into the Onkyo receiver. I wish to ask four things:
1) What kind of adapter would I need?
2) Would the audio quality (I'm interested in hooking up both appliances primarily for MP3 listening) be
about equal to that of a device such as an M-Audio Sonica?
3) Are there any potential problems? I went over the forums and read about SBLive Values blowing up receivers
and causing popping sounds while connected via a Coaxial Cable.
4) A sort of unrelated question, but can/should I connect my receiver to my sub with a coaxial cable or is a regular A/V cable sufficient?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and help; this forum is a godsend for a n00b like me.
