At the risk of sounding rude, first, try the owners manuals. They usually have hook up guides for typical systems. Robert Hartley has a book called something like "Guide to High-end Audio" which provides a glossary and lots of info. If you have specific questions, first try using the search feature on the forums archive on this site, and then post a question if you can't find an answer.
KaBOOM And a room full of Smoke Help??
Hi, my name is Christine. My husband is trying to set up a nice sound system and as recently bought audio components like a reel to reel, tuner, equalizer etc. etc. He was trying to hook them up the night before and one of the components exploded and bellowed out a bunch of smoke! Yep! It's toast.
He's not really a newbie with this, but he has more to hook up and it's a little confusing. Is there any "How to" books or any advice on how he can hook this all up where it's easy to understand and make it all come together and sound right?
Also, if there's any thing like that for hooking up a surround sound system for TV's? Ours never sounded quite right and can't figure out why.
Thanks for any help you can give us, we don't have a clue where to find that information. :)
