Reddit mentions of 12ft 3.5mm Stereo Male to 2 RCA Male Splitter Cable

you could just get a cable like this or this and use your computer's microphone port for recording. the quality of the audio and available sample-rate/bit-depth options will depend on how nice your computer's soundcard is. if you want to record each individual channel on your mixer (to allow the adjustment of levels and application of effects to specific tracks in post production) you will need a more advanced multi-channel audio interface. an iRig allows you to plug an instrument which has a 1/4" output into your iPhone's headphone jack, this wouldn't really help you as it only allows one channel and still leaves the analog to digital conversion to your computer's sound card. if you are looking for something better, explore the USB interfaces suggested in the other comments.

This is what you'll need for audio:

I would suggest you get the Pi from somewhere else. It should be around $35 (I got mine from Newark.com)

Get one of these: http://www.amazon.com/SF-Cable-3-5mm-Stereo-Splitter/dp/B0016LFN2C/ref=sr_1_2?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1334943829&sr=1-2

$3 and free shipping. The red and white plug into the tape monitor output on your receiver and the 3.5mm goes into the mic jack on the computer.

The "AUX IN" ports are where you plug your phone. You will need a cable which has a connector for your phone and on the other end there is RCA connectors. If you have basic 3.5mm connector on the phone then you can buy 3.5mm RCA cable.

You would use this: http://www.amazon.com/Cable-feet-3-5mm-Stereo-Splitter/dp/B0016LFN2C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1394029540&sr=8-1&keywords=stereo+to+rca+cable

Connect the stereo end to your source, and connect the RCA ends to the back of the Muse amp.

Then you would follow this diagram on how to wire it up:

Credit goes to /u/ZeosPantera for the diagram.

You would set the crossover on the back of the subwoofer amp to around 80 Hz. The specs on the Micca's state that they're good down to 60 Hz, but I don't know if I believe that. Listen to see if there's a hole in the bass to determine where to set the crossover. You want it to sound as seamless as possible.

Ah, okay. I think the "mini jack" output means you can just get something like this.

Optical is a better option, but since it's a digital output, you'd need a DAC to convert to analog for the amp. If you want to go that route, cheap ones are around $30, and the best you'll ever need is around $100.

For non-simultaneous playback:

Here's what you could do:
Buy one 3.5mm Stereo Male to Two RCA Male Splitter Cable, and one 2 x RCA Male, 1 x 3.5mm Stereo Female, Y-Cable 6-Inch. Also get a 3-Way Audio Video AV RCA Switch Selector Box Splitter. That all together is $9.82 US.

Connect the xbox to your TV as normal. Use the RCA cable included with the splitter to connect your TV's audio output to the Splitter's Input 1. You don't need to connect the yellow video connection on that cable. Then use a male 3.5mm Stereo to RCA cord to connect your laptop/iphone's headphone jack to the Splitter's Input 2. Plug the 2 x RCA Male, 1 x 3.5mm Stereo Female, Y-Cable 6-Inch cable into the Splitter's Output, and connect your headphones to the 3.5mm female end. You should then easily be able to switch between ipod/laptop and xbox/tv sound feeding to your headphones by adjusting the splitter's output switch. This is a very basic setup, but should achieve what you're going for as long as you didn't want the two inputs playing simultaneously.

For simultaneous playback:

Here's what you could do (I admit this is probably a bit of a wrap around way of doing it, but it was fun to come up with):

Buy:
Two Behringer MICROMIX MX400 4-Channel Mixer, one 3.5mm Stereo Male To 2 RCA Male Cable, one Male RCA to male RCA cable, one male RCA to female 3.5mm cable, six 3.5mm to 2RCA female adapter, and six 1/4 inch to 1/8 inch stereo jack adapters. This setup without shipping and handling costs $75.55 US.

This thing only outputs in mono though, so it doesn't benefit your headphones greatly (only one side will play sound). This is why we're gonna get two of them though, and this is the fun part. Check out this picture: http://i.imgur.com/UPMX5j2.png. It has the steps included with a crude illustration. The benefit of this setup is that you can have the ipod/laptop coming in at a different volume than the tv/xbox. Also has space for two more inputs if your ever have more you want to plug in (or to allow a laptop and ipod to be plugged in at the same time).

I... I think that setup would work.

Sure. You'll just need a 3.5mm to RCA cable. http://www.amazon.com/Cable-feet-3-5mm-Stereo-Splitter/dp/B0016LFN2C/

male 3.5 to male rca splitter.

Also if the plug has a ground on it you'll want to get a groundless adapter otherwise you might encounter some interference (a hum).

you need something like this:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0016LFN2C/

which are availible anywhere, then you can plug one end into the phone and the other two ends into where it says inputs on the second picture, (dvd, etc)

I use the CD input and connected my iPod using something like this. I also tried on the VCR connection and the "mono" connection (not sure what that is).

I tried turning the tape monitor loop on and off and that didn't change anything.

I don't know of a mute option on the receiver, but if it was muted wouldn't that also mute the center and back channels?

I'll ask my friend this evening if he ever had any issues with it.

EDIT: here is a link to the manual if that helps at all

Hey, I currently have my dad's old mobilepre usb and was wondering if i could hook it up to a schiit magni 2 using one of these.

Would it be possible?

Okay so, tell me if this shopping cart looks good.

As long as the TT included an RCA cable, no. But you will probably need another rca cable to connect to your speakers.

This one if you are connecting to red and white inputs

This one if you are connecting to a 3.5mm jack

Well... 3.5mm is the same signal as RCA, so you could use that same exact switch with a couple of cheap plug adapters like this:

or if you want a switch designed with RCA in mind you can do that too:

http://www.amazon.com/RCA-DT902AV-2-Way-V-Switcher/dp/tech-data/B0014KOAD8

in fact, it would be cheaper for the OP to pick up one of those RCA splitters and adapt it to 3.5mm then even the original 3.5mm switch I linked to.

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT USE COAXIAL/RF. If you do, the internet will hate you.

Here's what you need to get:

Video Cable
http://www.amazon.com/Third-Party-Genesis-AV-Cable/dp/B004H7TX0A/

Audio Cable
http://www.amazon.com/SF-Cable-3-5mm-Stereo-Splitter/dp/B0016LFN2C/

Plug the video cable into the back, plug the audio cable into the headphone jack. Combine for best results. In a nutshell, the headphone jack has stereo sound output, the rear output is mono.

You CAN get your system modded to output RCA through the rear, and you can also have it modded to output S-Video, but I hear it can be costly.

I looked into the audio adapter, and apparently this is the best option. Will I need to buy this cable to connect to my speaker system? Thanks.
