Abstract
A sharing device is composed of a distributor and multiple output units. The distributor has multiple input ports to connect different audio sources, such as VCD/DVD players, and has multiple output ports to correspondingly connect to the multiple output units. Each output unit is further connected with a sound output device, e.g. speakers, to broadcast audio signals. When the multiple output units are distributed at different locations, a user in any place is able to select a desired audio source by controlling the output unit and listen to music provided by the selected audio source.
