• Bass speaker into computer?
    6 replies, posted
So My bass speaker has just blown. We have an un-used surround-sound bass speaker downstairs and i was wondering if there are any special leads or anything i could do to get it working on my computer? Im not the best with computer sound and this is probably a really dumb question but if there is any way could you please tell me? here are some pictures of what the leads look like on the back of the bass speaker.

Don't they have converters for those? I'm pretty sure they do.

This connecter, would it plug straight into the computer or something else?
No. You need an amplifier to, you guessed it, amplify any sounds originating from your computer. The wattage coming from the headphone jack can only drive headphone drivers (or very, very small speakers).
You'll need a receiver/decoder for it to work. The computer only has enough power output for a receiver to pick up, and then the receiver takes it from there.
