Have you tried another browser? It sounds like a possible flash-player issue, especially if audio works else where on the machine. Flash player is needed to view and hear audio from fox news videos and a lot of other videos on the Web.

Tell us the operating System you're using and Web browser

Favourite audio book narrators and thoughts on audio books
Q
Comments (13)
I've been reading audiobooks almost exclusively since 1982 through the US National Library Service's Talking Books program, and all of their narrators are top-notch. Very occasionally there is someone with an accent I find harder to follow but the problems created by unusual accents are never so severe that I stop reading a book. My impression of commercial audio books is that they tend to be jazzed up with (a) background music and (b) narrators who assume different "voices" for the various characters. I prefer just the book, read in a straightforward way. But I do wish sometimes that the readers would make it clear where a quotation begins and ends, maybe by saying "Quote" and "End quote."

If it's not too late, it's always a good idea to take a picture of the equipment that the seller is removing. It's always helpful to know what was there and how it was configured. To answer your question, yes, you want to buy a multi-channel amp to power the speakers in your rooms. It's important to know how many rooms and speakers per room you will be powering to inform the requirements of the amp. Another important consideration to determine is how the owner controlled the system, and how you would like to control the system? Are there volume controls or keypads in the rooms? Would you like to control the system via your smartphones? A couple of options for you: SpeakerCraft, Nuvo Player Series, Sonos

Multi Room Audio for TV

A multi-zone receiver is the usual method but that wouldn't be the simplest solution. The gotcha with BT speakers is you still need to give them power so depends on your setup. Method 1 - Wireless: Get a cheap Bluetooth amp (click me) and BT speakers (assuming TV has BT). If you're good with a smaller speaker you could use a USB powered one for example and avoid all the wiring. The smaller Bose USB speakers sound nice - seen for $80 at Costco. Method 2 - Wired: I'd just get a cheap amp (click me) connect with a 'Y' splitter on the audio to the soundbar to audio input, and output to speakers. Also manually controlled but the small amp could be inconspicuous. Assumption here is you can run the wires easily.

Audiophiles are indeed particular souls, and with good reason. The equipment is an investment, and when you start looking at the uber high-end brands, there's no comparing it to even one of the better lines such as Bose. No idea what brand of equipment your hubby owns, but he values it and that's all that matters. I agree with the suggestion to simply get a larger console to tuck away as many of the components as appropriately fit, but I would not fret the fact that there are speakers on the floor. I think we tend to get a bit obsessive over having our homes picture-perfect, when the reality is that we share them with others who have a host of interests and tastes, and they too should have a say in what goes into a room. Besides, those speakers are not at all obtrusive IMO. (You want obtrusive? These ginormous, tall corner pieces are very similar to my father's Klipsch horns. They currently sell for just under $15k. This is not your Bose sound. ;-))

The first thing I would do is to simply restart the computer, then visit the Fox news site and see if sound comes back, the next thing to try is another browser this will determine if it's browser related. Do you have another browser like Firefox you could try?

Do you have other audio working? Laptop or desktop? Did you mean XP? Did this just start?

Start>Control Panel>Click on the Flash icon>Stroll through the appearing tabs. What version is currently installed?

I know this is a simple fix, but I can't figure it out. Had the icon, needed to turn PC off, later when I turned it on Icon was gone.
