Audio quality worsened if...

[gerbs]

I fork the wires from my current setup to 2 PCs so both my computers use the same speakers? I'd be using (three) 3.5mm Y-adapters to do so.

btw, one card is an audigy 2 and one's an audigy 4, and the speakers are Klipsch Pro 5.1 - so if there's a noticable difference how bad would it be?

Thanks


edit:

i could also split the connection at the subwoofer (where the ports are) instead and then run 2 sets of wires but that doesn't seem very logical

You should isolate the two PC's by soldering/wiring in isolation resistors in line with each conductor that connects to the sound cards jacks that would mean, for a 5.1 system, 12 resistors, 10K Ohms would be a good choice. (Normal y connectors do not have this.)
