uhh. is that even the same idea as mine? he wanted to hook up his PC to a sound system, that really doesnt specify what kind of sound system he wants to hook up, it could be a 5.1 surround sound sterio system.


I want to hook my PC speakers up my tv

and I didnt understand wtf you were talking about in your post

"youll probably have to have a patch cable with 1/8th inch on one end and rca on the other"

wtf is that called?

1/8th inch connector is like whats on the end of a set of head phones.

rca (patch cable) = vcr type plug

so , pc speakers to your tv/stereo you would probably have to find an adapter that went from 1/8 th inch (female) connector to (male) rca. (male has the prong / female has the slot)

you can probably find something like that at radio shack.

This is the adaptor that you need. I've found one packaged with the last couple of speaker sets I bought.

One other question, will I have to have a STEREO TV for this? cuz all I have are 2 A/V plugs, my TV is a mono speaker.
