Alright /mu/. Got these speakers from my dad, he bought them over 10 years ago and never used them. I want to use them with my computer, but don't have a ton of money to blow on a nice stereo to push them. What do you guys recommend?
Pic related, what's on the back of the speakers. The brand is Pro Dynamic.

Get an RCA female/1/8th" male jack, a set of RCA male connects, a Lepai amp, some speaker wire and your good to go...

Just 1/4" cables don't do it. I'm not a 100% mong.
>>66167603
fuck you there are 1/4 in outputs and fucking RCA. you could do 1/4 to an adapter to his fucking computer. no amp needed then
>>66167635
This is OP. I've tried just 1/4" to my computer, to guitar amps, nothing. The thing is amps and computers don't have two outputs for both 1/4" inputs on the speakers, much less 4 for both speakers.

ADAPTER MUTHA FUCKA
>>66167680
What kind of adapter do I need to make my computer push two massive fucking speakers? I need to adapt one regular headphone jack to four inputs on two speakers, which need to be L/R separated.
>>66167760
You don't
You can find receivers at any thrift stores that will push it. Connect the pc to the receiver with analog and digital then push the speakers with the receivers
Alright. I should be able to find something, I just wanted to make sure there wasn't any wizardry technology that I was unaware of. This seems simple enough. Thanks, /mu/

>driving these from the soundcard's line level output
Enjoy, I guess.

What would you recommend?
>>66168032
Op those things are too powerful to drive from a pc
Get a receiver
It's the cheapest option. I've got 3 from thrift stores, all yamaha, 15 dollars each
>>66168295
So just run the PC to the receiver and the receiver to the speakers?
>>66168306
Ya
So you'll probably just use aux to rca or just an aux chord since the pc is only sending sound signal and not power. So the receiver will connect using those cords, then the speakers connect using speaker wires. These are all available for a few bucks from ebay. The receiver might be tougher to find but again you're only using two channels so look at thrift stores and ebay to find one. I'd post links hut I'm in mobile

Do some googling, you retard.
you need an amp, but dont buy a lepai, its no where near powerful enough.
Or any chinese amp that advertises high wattage output for cheap, they dont.

Don't try to make op spend too much
Entry into this hobby should be only like 40 bucks, then op can do start doing research and slowly start spend more and more
Hell, he can ignore amps and just get a 2.1 sub.
Here's a cheap choice
