New member Username: Eric2007Post Number: 1 Registered: Nov-06 | I'm trying to figure out how I can connect non-computer speakers to my computer. Is there any way to take regular speakers (like the detachable ones from a minisystem)--ones with red and black wires--and hook them up to an 1/8th inch jack? I appreciate your help. Eric |
