Can anybody tell me how to connect my stereo speakers to my computer? My computer speakers are ok but not that loud, and my stereo speakers would be much more gooder.

OK, first of all I would recommend you get a new set of speakers, preferrably a set that comes with a subwoofer - makes all the difference in the world.

Now if you still insist on using your stereo, the best way to do this would be to run a cable from your soundcard's output jack (where your comp speakers are currently hooked up) and plug the other end of the cable into an AUX port on the back of your stereo. Then when you wanna hear you comp through those speakers turn on your stereo, set it to AUX - job done.

If you're talking about connecting your stereo speakers directly to the PC, they might not sound as good as you think. Bigger speakers generally need more amplification to produce a better sound, and your PC doesn't put out (normally) the necessary amount - that's why you would wanna run in through your stereo.

I hope that helps.

You'll want something like this. Any radioshack will have it - just get one long enough for your needs. (this one is 6 feet).

Oh, and go fuck yourself LMMFAO!!111 :-D :-D :-D

8 bucks and a trip to radio shack...

no effin way

What ya do is take two sets of those walkman style headphones. Cut the headphones off. Splice the wires together. Plug one end into the headphone jack on your sound card and the other into mic jack on your stereo.

*Edit: Whoops! was thinking he wanted to broadcast. Gimme a break, it's early.

barch, go fuck yourself. See, now we have a serious answer to the question and a "go fuck yourself" part of the thread. The circle is complete. Thank you, drive through



And now I feel like I'm alive
I don't know how I got so low
These voices in my mind
Tell my it's killing time
It is a thrill I can't describe
