    I have a set of Boston Acoustics computer speakers (woofer and two satellites that run into the woofer) that came with a gateway desktop I bought a few years back. They work fine with my desktop, but when I plug them into the headphone out on my W3V...nothing, no sound at all. The W3V works fine with my 6.1 surround sound HSU system thru an Onkyo receiver, but not with the Boston Acoustics speakers. Any suggestions?

    On W3V - sweet

    If you had them set up for digital out - you probably didn't turn it back to just stereo

    Thanks,

    In the control panel.. you should have had to change them in order to set it up for 6.1.......... so just go back there.
