I have 2 Logitech z-2300 and I want to hook them up together in my room. I have 2 subwoofers and 4 speakers but each subwoofer has only 2 speaker ports. Each sub also has only one port to hook up the remote to the sub. I was wondering what is the best way to hook both of them up to the laptop without losing its power. And I was thinking about selling both of my 2.1s and get a 5.1 instead but one of them is kinda broken. It works fine but i wouldn't really be able to sell it. i think they would rather get a new one becaues the z-2300 isnt that expensive. Could you help me and give me some ideas? Thanks

See if there is a Y adaptor available and run one z2300 for the left channel and one z2300 for the right. I'd think you could find a male to 2 female Y adaptor at Radio Shack. Plug each sub into a female plug and the male back into your laptop. Just make sure when you hook all this up that the left satelites stay on one side of the listening position and the right on the other in order to maintain a proper stereo image.

Thank you so much. However, wouldnt that make the output of the speaker weaker?

I shouldn't make a big difference.
