Speaker Problems
I have the Muse 5.1 DVD sound card and ALTEC LANSING ACS54 Surround Sound Speakers. The speakers, I've had almost 2 years, the card, about a year.
My previous sound card was Creative's 512 PCI card. Anyway, the surround sound worked fine on this card, and it worked even better when I upgraded to the Muse.
My computer was originally in the basement room, where I could let it blast out some. Last fall, I traded room s with my daughter so she would have more room for when her friends drop by. I took the smaller room upstairs, and started to use my headphones whenever I would watch a DVD.
After reading several posts on this board, it dawned on me that I hadn't checked to see if my surround speakers still worked. I just assumed they did, and attributed any difference to the smaller room and lower balance. I checked them out today, and the surrounds (the front speakers) don't work. The woofer works, and so do the back speakers. Checked all my connections and software settings. Tried several DVDs and games, but the surrounds don't work.
My question. Could they have just crapped out on me? Seems like some people have had that experience. Or should I just pull everything and re-connect. Rather than shell out money for new speakers, maybe all I need is some new cables. Any input would be appreciated.
