Help Me with my SPEAKERS.

[Szeki845]

I have Harman Kardon Soundsticks iii (Not the wireless ones).

I got a long desk 2 metres in length. I have the sub woofer on the shelf next to the desk. The problems is that the left speaker cant be placed on the far left because the cable is not long enough.

The right speaker is good because its positioned on the right side of the desk next to the sub. But the left is 2.4 metres away from the sub and the cable don't reach.

I bought a "female to male RCA cable" because i thought i just need to extend it but now when i connect it the left speaker to the extension (Speaker wire to female and the male RCA to the sub) the left speaker is very quiet. i checked the levels and they are correct. What can be the issue?

the cable you bought is like this one http://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-6-3-5mm-mini-audio-extension-cable-black/4370029.p?id=1219098070090&skuId=4370029 it should go from the middle plitter on the left channel where the right channel is plug and not on from the sub ,the sub have it own connector unplug sub and try with l and r speaker alone first .

Because the signal has to travel a further distance, it might be degrading the signal, making it quieter than the right. Try Scout_03's suggestion, otherwise if you use your computer, you could just change the level balance in windows or Realtek control panel.

The cable i bought is this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B001NWRJ4E?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 I plug it to the left speker and the other end to the sub. i have to connect the speakers to the sub because thats where its all connected and then a 3.5mm jack goes to the pc.
