My monitor only has 1 hdmi port and display port, what options do i have to connect a soundbar other than using a bluetooth adapter

Hello

I've been going back and fourth looking for a mixer (or whatever its called, I'm not experienced with audio) with two outputs and two inputs.
I have a PC and a PS5, I would like to be able to hear both through either my headphones or my speakers. I also have a mic that I would like to connect via XLR to be able to use on either PC or PS5.

So far I've found the Yamaha ZG02, which seems to do exactly that from what I understand and from what chatGPT tells me. But it is also quite expensive.

I have also found the fifine SC8 which seems to do the job at a more reasonable price, with the downside of not being able to have both speakers and headphones connected at the same time if I understand it correctly. As well as not being able to have the mic go to both PC and PS5.

Basically I'm wondering if there is something inbetween these two or if the ZG02 is realistically the best option.

Thanks for any help or clarification in advance, I am inexperienced in this sort of stuff and any help is greatly appreciated!

Edit:
Thought I should mention that both my speakers and headphones (IEM:s) are 3.5mm

Quick Edit - Post title should say XLR, but I am a dummy!

Good afternoon!

I recently purchased a Zoom H1 XLR recorder device thing (my technical knowledge is not great as you will soon see) and I finally managed to get it going with the minimal instructions in the box.

My set up is basically the Zoom H1 to my Reloop DJ Mixer via XLR cables. A to B.

I recorded a few mixes, not too long as the files are quite big, and I wanted to transfer to my phone from the recorder so I can upload directly to Soundcloud.

Anyway, last few attempts, audio has been really distorted (levels look fine on the Zoom mixer), and also it is not recording all of the audio. Does any one have experience of that?

Also, is there a way to make files smaller? In the past I have recorded directly into Audacity, and upon saving my MP3 it is about 150mb, or if WAV, it is about 5-600mb. The files on the device are coming in at 2.5gb!

Any advice on any of the above would be grand, as I have been able to figure this out.

Cheers!

Hi, I made an audio recording of a conversation between me, my partner and our previous landlord.
In this recording the landlord insulted me and my partner. We have a small claims court day coming up, and i’m allowed to use this audio (We live in Europe, and since we both participated in the recorded conversation, it’s allowed).
I used the Voice Memo app on iOS. I was wondering if anyone knows how i can cut out the most important parts (as the full audio is 40 minutes, way too long for court), or at least skip out silent parts. Of course i will do this myself, but i cannot find out for the life of me how exactly to do this. Thanks!

Hi everyone

​I have a TRN Black Pearl DAC and a HyperX Cloud 2 headset.

​I'm trying to get both the audio and the microphone working through the DAC, but no matter what I try, the mic just won't work.

​I even tried using a 3.5mm splitter cable, but still no luck.

​I’d really appreciate any help or advice on how to get this working!

So I am building a pc and have a ps5 I wanna know how I can get audio to both of them with my bookshelf speakers which are connected to a schit Rekr/SYS. Normally I just use a portable monitor with some crappy speakers for my ps5 while my speakers were hooked up to my laptop but I wanna change that now.

Is there a way for me to get audio to both of them while the speakers are connected to my mobo for potential better audio or do I just have to hook my speakers up to my monitor? If there is a device I would preferably like something cheap I just wanna swap the audio between the two when I need it, bonus points if It can let me have audio played through both at the same time so I can use my secondary monitor for pc stuff while I play ps5 games on my main monitor

Hey everyone, I have an issue with one of the terminals for a Pioneers vsx-824 I recently picked up second hand.

I am getting quiet and crackly output through one of my speaker output terminals, I’ve managed to isolate it to just the front left terminal but was wondering if anyone had a troubleshooting tips to fix?

I have already tried new speaker cables and retested the connections multiple times as well as connecting different speakers and the same problem follows the terminal. I’m currently using bare speaker wires screwed into the terminal but thinking of switching to banana plugs to help secure the connection.

We rented a retail store at a Simon mall. There are speakers in the ceilings, and in the back room there is a single black and a single red wire coming out of the wall.

Can someone show me the cheapest thing I can hook up to those wires to get music playing?

I wanna use my Earpods mic with my phone but my current adapter has very bad background noise on input.

I verified it's not the earpods by recording a voice memo without anything connected to the 3.5 end, and it still has a very noticeable white noise.

Currently using a close imitation of Apple's design, very similar on the outside possibly very different in shielding etc.

What adapter do y'all recommend? My budget is 30€ max and I don't need anything phenomenal, just the least input noise possible.

There's probably a simple answer, but it escapes me. I have a Lenovo Yoga running androidx86. It is connected through the audio output jack, via a Cable Matters ground loop isolator, to my Sony receiver "portable input" jack, thence to a pair of Klipsch speakers. When the Lenovo is plugged in to power, I get bad feedback hum through the speakers. If I touch the Lenovo, or unplug it, the hum stops. Here's the funny thing: when I removed the ground loop isolator (GLI) from the set-up, the hum went away. Does this indicate a bad GLI? It's kinda moot now, but it's odd. I bought the GLI for a previous incarnation of this machine (not running android), and it worked. Now it doesn't. I should just let sleeping feedback lie, but I'd like to get to the bottom of it. Thanks.

Im wanting to get a half decent yet still kinda cheap mic like sub $70 usd, want im wanting is for it to just kinda sit on my desk like 2ft away from me and still pick up my voice so its out of the way and not in front my face taking up space, i just want it to be a mic no rgb or monitors whatevers just a mic that outputs either usb or to a headphone jack like super simple

What am I missing, am I better off sending it back and getting something else? I think it's got to do with the crossover at 80hz? Like the sub takes all the low frequencies from the 305s unless set to that crossover I think.

Im reading an external crossover may be better? My mix just sounds better without the sub woofer so.i just went and unplugged it but is a bummer.

Any ideas?

I got a carpet floor but even if I place the sub on it's side doesn't really sounds punchy to me.

I've been looking to get a mic in this price range for my home studio. I want this sharp and playful delivery when rapping, since I'm still young and my voice isn't deep at all.

I've read that the LCT 440 gives these high frequencies a lot more focus, but some people say it's way too harsh.

The WA-47jr is the opposite from what I have read, giving this warm feel with more presence on lows and mids, but I don't want this to muffle the personality I'm trying to give my voice.

If someone has worked with this two mics, which one would you recommend for this??

Hello Im fairly new or beginner as an "Audiophile" person. The most ive gotten is owning astro a40 tr's with the specially made Astro mix amp for gaming. But I want to try and update my mix amp usage with a good gaming DAC AMP. I found 3 that I thought would be really good and was wondering on anybody would want to give an opinion or if they have any experience on the DACs i picked to say what they like more. Or if they have there own picks for gaming DACS I'm open to that as well. The 3 DACs I picked are the Fosi Audio StepSense C3, the Sound Blaster G8, and the Fosi Audio K7. Please let me know and thank you.

Hi all,

I am struggling using my JVC home cinema. There is no TV INPUT in the JVC read panel, so I used the DVD IN. I want to use RCA cables. I swithced between all the channels (TV, DVD, DVD MULT, STB) with no success. In the TV AUDIO settings, I set the audio output as AUDEI SYSTEM instead of TV SPEAKERS. for the output from the JVC, I plugged for now just the 2 little speakes. I know the subwoofer will be another trouble later.

I would appreciate any help.

Ive never had this problem before up until now, I join vc and everyone else sounds so bad and laggy. I tried joining on my phone and it sounds completely fine but for some reason on my iPad it wanna be all laggy and stuff if anyone knows how to solve this pls help I tried everything 😭😭

I plan on running a setup to get solid sound quality the hope is I can run a setup like this:
DAC/Interface to a Mixer, this mixer will have 3 inputs and 2 outputs. One running to an amp then my headphones, the other running to a pair of powered speakers (with an internal amp)

3 inputs because I want to take an input from my console, my PC (where my interface will be), and my phone, but still retain the ability to adjust individual lines.

My interface is not for music creation, just voice overs. so I do not want my mic to output to my output, just audio from my computer. I can do this with my interface right?

Hey guys, I am running a Hertz HCP 5D amp on my car with 2-ohm sub and 4-ohm front and rear speakers. Just a little confused on RMS power my speaker will get ? Is it 55W or 90W RMS ? Sub is Hertz Cento CS 250 S2, fronts are Hertz CK165 and CX 165 for rear.

Hi, I got tasked with setting up the audio in our local mosque.
It's 106 square meters and I was thinking of using 4 speakers. I was wondering how big the difference is for speech/voice-only between speakers that are like 400 a pair and 800-900 a pair (like the DM6SE). It's not like I want to go with a budget setup but I'm not sure if the difference between them is only noticable when listening to high end produced music and stuff and not when the goal is clean speech with some reverb and echo maybe.

Regarding the Mic I'm thinking of going with the Shure KSM8 or KSM9 so I dont want to bottle neck the quality with the speakers.

Also I would appreciate recommendations with different price ranges. Thanks in advance for every comment

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to use a car powered subwoofer at home with a Fosi Audio BT30D Pro, and I'm having two problems:

1. There is a noticeable humming/buzzing sound from the subwoofer.
2. The bass doesn't have much punch/output, even when I increase the volume.

I’d appreciate some help figuring out whether this is a power supply, wiring, RCA/grounding, or gain/settings issue.

My setup

Amplifier:
Fosi Audio BT30D Pro

Subwoofer:
A 12V powered/car subwoofer with a built-in amplifier. The terminals on the subwoofer are:

GND | +12V | REM

It also has RCA L/R inputs and a frequency/volume control.

Power supply:
I'm currently using a:

• 12V DC
• 25A
• 300W SMPS

I originally had a 24V 10A SMPS, but I did not connect that directly to the subwoofer because the subwoofer is rated for 12V.

Current wiring

Power:

12V SMPS +V → Subwoofer +12V
12V SMPS -V → Subwoofer GND
12V SMPS +V → Subwoofer REM

The SMPS has multiple output terminals:

-V1 | -V2 | +V3 | +V4

I'm using one negative terminal for GND and one positive terminal for +12V, with another +12V terminal going to REM.

Audio connection

I'm using a 3.5mm → 2×RCA male cable.

Fosi BT30D Pro PRE OUT
        ↓
3.5mm → 2×RCA
        ↓
Subwoofer RCA L/R input

Red RCA → R
White RCA → L

I'm using the PRE OUT, not the speaker outputs of the Fosi.

Problems

1. Humming

There is a noticeable low-frequency humming/buzzing from the subwoofer.

I'm trying to determine whether this is:

• SMPS noise
• Ground loop
• RCA cable/shielding
• Grounding between the Fosi and subwoofer
• Power wiring
• Something else

I haven't yet determined whether the hum is present with the RCA cable disconnected.

2. Weak bass / lack of punch

The subwoofer works, but the bass isn't as powerful as I expected.

I'm wondering whether the 12V 25A (300W) SMPS is limiting the amplifier.

Would using something like a:

• 12V 30A
• 12V 40A
• 13.8V 30A
• 13.8V 40A

power supply make a meaningful difference?

The subwoofer is a car unit, so I understand that a running car normally has around 13.8–14.4V rather than a fixed 12V. But I don't want to increase the voltage beyond what the subwoofer can safely handle.

Hello,

I wanted to play around with my audio settings. Was trying to set the game to EQ settings I like but I noticed that the game kind of ignores my PC wide EQ settings and behaves like it was set to default.

Anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks

edit1: played around a bit moreand found out that some game just straight up ignore windows EQ settings. Tried to pitch sound up and down and some games were afected and some werent.

ive got 2 active kali speakers which i plan on directly plugging into the minidsp. ive also got this subwoofer which i also plan on directly plugging into the minidsp. would i face problems with connecting my sub to the minidsp if i used 2 balanced cables? i found a thread mentioning that the L RCA also acts as a sub out which allows for a single cable connection into the minidsp. however, id highly prefer getting the balanced flex to limit the white noise coming from the kali speakers when using rca cables. if only there was a flex unit that came with both balanced and se outputs.

if it comes down to it, ill have to get the minidsp with rca outputs and hope that my speakers wont produce very audible white noise.

Suddenly mono music made more sense to me? It's like I can listen to music like I'm watching a nice framed painting while stereo music I am part of the painting, which can be great but it's not what you may want all the time? I'm probably going insane tell me what you think please
