A short presentation on how best to select the right speaker system for your computer. Disclaimer: I#39;ve been working at Altec Lansing since ...

I have some really old Pc speakers that you can plug into the headphone socket on your pc. So I have been able to also plug them into my tv's headphone socket and get good sound. So i was just wondering if new 2.1 speakers work the same way? And can i plug them into my tv?

as long as you have the correct conector. you can purchase a phono to 3.5 jack if thats what your having problems with.

I have stereo pc speakers plugged into sound card that play fine. Bought a flat screen monitor that has speakers on it and can't seem to get them to play. I've checked everything. Nothing is muted. I change settings and still no sound.

Did you connect the audio cable from the monitor to the sound card.
Did you raise the volume from the monitor, i.e. Vol- Vol+ buttons.

What I'm looking to do is having Ventrilo audio playing through my USB headset, and have music/World Of Warcraft running through the PC speakers. I figured since it's a USB headset, it may work. Any help is appreciated.

Interesting thought, but probably not going to work ...

The only thing I can think of if You cant use the start, control panel, sounds and audio devices setttings would be to see if there's a an actual headphone jack on the front of Your particular CD/DVD drive.

Some of the older ones had an option to plug in a set of headphones directly for listening to audio CDs while using the system, but I believe they shot down that option.

Next option, using 2 programs at once, like an MP3 player (not WMPlayer) and the game at the same time - but they will both try to lock the audio hardware for use, and You can only have 1 MAIN program running at a time even though Windows is a multi-tasking OS.

Just a thought, why not hook up a portable MP3 player and use some cheap speakers and the headset?. Or possibly a headphone splitter jack of some sort?.


Good Luck!.

Don't know about best...but the logitech Z5500 is one I have and it's a 5.1 THX certified....it sounds very good. I've tried several others, including some generic and creative, at the end i settled for this and I was not disappointed. Give it a try.
