ok so heres the situtation, i have been having problems with my control pod and have had to send it back to logitech twice due to the backlight flickering.
on my second time sending just the control pod logitech sent me an entire set of speakers. so i now have 2 sets of speakers and 1 control pod.
i have a SVGA extension cable (15 pins) that will work with the unit to make the control pod cable longer. so i know i could cut the cable in half then solder in a second female connector to plug into the second set of speakers. it would work in terms of getting power to everything BUT will i kill my control pod due to to much voltage or amps?
i know if you have the same voltage on 2 different wires you can put them together and nothing will happen since there is no potential difference. the same reason why you get 7v from using a 12v and 5v wire for fans.
i'm worried about the amps though.
i would basically be making a Y connection.
so do any of you see any problems with this?
