How can I get music from all speakers instead of just the front ones, when connecting to an Ipod (2 channel input)?

Hmmm, I've not had this issue. Generally I use the usb plug on the unit and then can use its (somewhat primitive) menu via the tv/monitor. It works through all the channels for me. I suppose if you're looking for a 5.1 or 7.1 situation then it would depend on the audio file type. I hope this helps...

Use Stereo mode or Mono. - outputs identical sound through all speakers. See page 28-29 of user guide for more sound settings.

YES if you have a USB connector to your Ipod you can plug directly to USB input ON S5400, THANKS ERIC

Yes, I've done it from my iPad with no problems. At most you just need change the output to "Stereo" so it uses all connected speakers.

You must only use one input at a time but if you connect them to an interface you can record the output of the interface through the speakers as well

Just use the in and out jacks on the back of the speakers. Out from the speaker connected to source in to additional speaker.

You can hook multiple speakers, but you won't get all the music from them. The amp is mono meaning it plays only one channel of music. Stereo music has two channels (at least) and needs both playing to sound "correct" This is not the right amp for that setup.

No. It is an old proprietary system that requires a 30 pin iPod to sit in its base and then the base communicates to the speakers. the base does have 2 RCA cracks that can be used to send signals to other speakers but the speakers only receive signals from the base.

You could, you would have to use a 1/8th inch to RCA adapter, then 2 RCA splitters (1 female to 2 male) to run on all four channels. You would control the iPod from the iPod itself. It would be wise to adjust the level on the amp so that when the ipod is at full volume it doesn't distort the sound. Do this by playing a loud song, anything modern, and turn the iPod up all the way.Start with the gain levels on the amp down all the way. Slowly turn the amp levels up until the sound starts to distort and back it off a little. That will set your max volume and help protect your speakers and amp.Hope that helpsRoss You could, you would have to use a 1/8th inch to RCA adapter, then 2 RCA splitters (1 female to 2 male) to run on all four channels.

Only using a "Y" adapter out of your music sources headphone out port. They would not be actually tied together but each would be receiving the same input from your source .

If you mean use for example, an iPad to play music on both speaker sets at the same time, no. They will be on different frequencies and the source can only connect to one thing at a time.

I hook it up through the headphone jack on the ipod. Use the cord with the small computer end into the speaker and the skinny headphone jack into the ipod's headphone input.

Use a standard audio cable to connect the speaker to the headphone jack on the iPod.

You can, but it's not ideal. I hooked up my ipod using a 1/8 jack to stereo RCA Jacks, plugged into the front AV input. Get good audio quality, but no control over the iPod, of course... I'm probably going to go ahead and invest in a dock...

You can but it I don't recommend this cause then you will only hear half of the song playing, several songs will bounce back and forth from right to left channel cause they are designed to be played in stereo

Just buy an extra speaker cable male and female, connect the 1st speaker to anything that you use to play music with, once its playing look behind the speaker and you will see line input and line output. Connect the female jack to the line output and go to the speaker you just bought and connect the male jack to the line input then turn up the both speakers volume and enjoy the song !

I plug my ipod in with a 3.5mm cable all the time. You can also plug in external speakers through RCA stereo plug ins. Older versions of this couldn't do that (my friend has the older version)

Hi DavidThese speakers are passive, which means you would need to have an Amplifier between the speakers and the iPod.While these are very nice speakers, if you want something which can be connected directly to an iPod or other MP3 player (etc) you will need to buy a separate amp to go with these OR buy a set of speakers with a built in Amp.

I plugged it into an iPod and it works well, but it's not a dual speaker - so if you have a song that bounces between two speakers (left to right) you will lose part of the song. Like, there is a Beatles song where I lose almost all the background sound, but the singing is clear.

You can use both newer and older ipods with this speaker - there is a connection cord that plugs into the older ipods and then into the top of the speaker. Then select AUX2 to play. The newer ipods slide onto the connector and then select IPOD to play those.
