Hello,

My TV has a little audio out deal at the front (RCA and 1/8" plug), so I tried connecting it to my iMic. The iMic will accept audio input and output to USB. I connected a gender changing USB adapter and my Soundsticks to it hoping I'd be able to get sound from my TV out of my Soundsticks, but this isn't working.

Anyway to get something like this to work, or am I SOL?

That's cute, but no, it won't work.

Why? Digital to analog?

So, no possible way to do this at all?

The soundsticks and iMic are both dumb, they rely on the computer to do everything.

Perhaps I'll look into upgrading to the new version of the Soundsticks (SS II), which I understand will support this...
