Hi. It's my first time here and I'm so lost! Help!!!
I moved into a house with in-wall speakers built it. I have 10 speakers inside the house and 4 speakers located on deck. In my basement, there are 6 pairs of wires (white + black) with LAN cable. Then there are 3 wall "volume controllers". I was recommended to buy a 5.1 channel receiver which I did. Then when I got home, there are 6 sets of wires, and only 5 sets of place to hook the wires. I've connected them, and only 6 speakers were producing sounds. Each wall volume controllers are linked to something that looks like a LAN cable, but no light comes out when trying to change the volume.
I hope that makes sense. I was told to buy 5.1 channel, but now I'm wondering whether I really needed it. If not, then what must I buy? How do I connect this?
I've been struggling with this for the past 2 days and I'm getting bit fed up...
Any help will be much appreciated!!!
