I have 5 PCs that I want to switch between, to 1 set of speakers.
It comes down to a 3P4T rotary switch, where 1 PC misses out, or common all the GNDs and run a 2P5T rotary switch.
Basically I want to know if common-ing the GNDs will produce distortion or something bad.
Also curious to know if a constantly connected splitter between 2 PCs and 1 speaker, apart form the sounds being on top of each other, can damage one PC if both are outputting because they are connected directly together.
Thanks
