Hi there,
My hometheatre unit took a nose dive. I would like to use my existing five surround sound speakers plus one sub woofer with my laptop. Is there some unit I can buy which will allow me to plug these speakers into something then into laptop etc...? Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
John

Hi,
We live in South America so I can't just get another old Panasonic home theatre from ebay or send my broke unit in for repair anywhere. I also cant afford to buy a whole new theatre with speakers and all as electronics here are super expensive.
So I am hoping there is some kind of stand alone unit that I can simply plug my speakers into and then plug the unit into my laptop (which does have HDMI).
So even if the cost of this mystery unit a bit, it would be the solution for me.
Thanks for any advice.
