Default HELP Connecting a buttkicker to my setup

so I just bought a buttkicker used and i am trying to figure out how to connect it to my current setup. i looked up the manual for it online but it didnt seem to help me any. I have a ps3 connected to an LG hdtv with a component cable. i do not have surround sound or anything like that. so based on my setup how do i connect by buttkicker so that it will work while i play ps3 games. thanks for all your help!

The buttkicker gamer only uses one audio channel (left or right), so all you have to do is connect the provided splitter to one channel of your PS3. Then run one side of the splitter to your sound system and the other to your buttkicker...piece of cake. If you'd like I can post photos of my setup for you.

Welcome to the site,

I've attached a photo of the wiring between my Xbox 360 & Buttkicker Gamer. Bare in mind that I'm using an HDMI connection, so the audio from my Xbox 360 to my TV is not shown.

Hope this helps,

Ok, taking this off topic. How do you do the thumb nail thing with your photos?
