Hi everyone,

I really did try searching the forum but unable to find anything that answer my question.

Before i ask the question i should tell you what my current setup is. That way, you'll have a better understanding to what i want to do.

Currently, i have a htpc (home theatre Pc) connected to my Yamaha receiver with 5.1 surround sound. Recently, i have the urge to setup a PC karaoke system, using Karafun software.

i have two microphones and a processor/key mixer for the microphone which i got from my family's old karaoke system.

My question is how do i connect that so it'll work with my Pc? In the back of the mixer there are RCA (audio only) output/input in the back. Do i connect this to the Pc or the receiver? Ive tried connecting to the receiver but there's no sound. Should i get a Y cable and connect it to the pc mic slot? Will that affect the sound quality? (which im seeking btw)

any suggestion/recommedation would be greatly appreciated.

tommy

Get a Y cable to run sound from you speaker connection on your pc to the RCA in of your mixer.

RCA cables from the Mixers RCA out to an available RCA input of your receiver.

I wouldnt suggest using a home stereo as a PA, it will eventually blow.
