Hi everyone.. hope all is well.
Here's my question/dilemma:
I've recently built a home vinyl setup and bought a pair of emotiva 5S studio monitors as my "speakers". -- They came highly recommended, but the reason I pulled the trigger on these is that I've read that they can both pose as a studio monitor for mixing and also have a dynamic enough range where they can easily be used as speakers as well.
I'm currently building a home recording setup and was wondering... how can I plug my monitors into my PC to have them channel audio from the PC and my vinyl setup?
The emotivas have both an XLR input on each speaker and also a RCA, which I currently use on my vinyl setup via a phono preamp.
So my two additional questions are:
1) Is there some kind of all-encompassing adapter that would allow me to use my monitors simultaneously via record player and also plugged into my tower? In essence just toggling back and forth between turntable and PC?
2) If not, is there some kind of adapter out there that would just let me channel audio from the computer through the monitors? Worst case scenario is I switch back and forth between plugging the monitors into the PC and then back into the phono pre amp? I can live with that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated guys and gals.
