    Ok, so you have to bear with me here, im amazingly clueless about setting up audio systems. So i have the Yamaha CRX-E400 and its great for personal use...if a little old. I want to connect the reciever to my new Dell laptop somehow so I can play my music through its speakers. I've tried everything I can to connect them to play and I cant figure it out. The link below is to my system. Any advice/ help would be great. especially if someone could walk me through all the hookups/ plug-ins needed. Thanks a ton!

    In order to feed from your computer to your receiver you need a input on your receiver like tuner or aux
