I have logitech z506 speakers wired through my computer, which uses my 55 samsung tv as a moniter. However, once i switch sources, say to play the ps4, all i get is tv sound. Is there a way to wire them through my tv instead and still use the speakers for all sources? As it is, not all the speakers want to work so id like to finally get them working correctly.
 
Solution
depends on how many inputs your tv has.
if your tv has enough inputs for everything you can input from each device to its own input, the pc should connect to the TV via HDMI.
then all you need to do is change the tv channel/input for each device. then connect the speakers to the TV'saudio out.
not enough inputs and you may need an adapter/converter.
PS4 on HDMI 1
PC on HDMI 2
CableTV on channel 3

the TV is the selector box, everything will connect to its own input, use the remote to switch between inputs. whichever input is selected the tv will output the audio to the speakers.
