Small Stereo Speakers

I have a set of turntables that I scratch with, and I was wondering if I could somehow connect them to a pair of home stereo speakers? Each speakers has a red and black wire. The turntables have a wire with a gray head and an orange head...
Can I do this?

you'll need an amp, that has a "phono" input
if you're using real records

they have a lot of the low end EQ'd out, to keep the gooves small,
so if you plug a turntable into an amp without the "phono" input, it will not sound very good
it's called the "RIAA EQUALIZATION CURVE"

Speakers with red and black "naked" wires to some type of adapter to plug into computers soundcard?

Sure. Just head over to Radio shack and buy a couple of jacks. Wire the speakers to the jacks, and plug em in.

Be aware that your computer doesn't put out much power for the sound, so it may not drive the stereo speakers very well.

Some day, you may want to add a power amplifier in between the computer and the speakers.

I have a good sized boat and have a stereo in the main cabin but would like to have extension speakers in the pilothouse. Wiring this kind of thing is very expensive on a boat. Is there such a thing as wireless speakers that might work? I only need small speakers and they dont have to be high power.

I haven't seen any wireless speaker sets themselves, but there are wireless Audio/Video sender units. This link is just one source. The prices can range from $50 to over $1000. Just google "wireless audio" and you'll be able to find something that will help. Here is an example page

I moved a while ago and finally getting around to hooking my stereo back up and I'm having trouble figuring it out.

There are 2 sets of speaker wires going into the bottom of the subwoofer. One positive & negative connection says "left" the other a positive and negative which says "right." The speaker wires are already hooked in there.

The problem is where do I hook them into the back of my stereo?

Here are my possible selections:

Rear Speakers (has 2 - one for right, one for left) - I hooked my small speakers into this. Is this correct?

Center Speaker - has only 1, doesn't say right or left, if I put the wires into this one, I would have to put the wires for both the left positive subwoofer connection and the right positive subwoofer connection into one connection. The same would go for the negative.

Front Speakers - You can plug 2 speakers into A and 2 into B.

Please tell me what to put where. I have 2 small speakers & a subwoofer.
My stereo system is an Onkyo and is about 15 years old. My subwoofer has no other way to connect to the stereo besides the cable. It is a part of a Cambridge Soundworks set.

Place the subwoofer connections in the corresponding left or right FRONT SPEAKER output, and the two small speakers can either both share the CENTER output or Share with the subwoofer, if you connect them to the REAR the sounds will be inconsistent and faint!

Good luck!

I've got an iBook G4 and would like to start a bit of music production on it... My problem doesn't lie in software but my real problem is using the small speakers on the laptop. I was wondering is there any sort of lead that can connect the laptop with my stereo speakers so I can hear the sound from there?
I looked on my speakers to see the Headphone jack since I have the 3.5mm cables you all speak of... but there is no jack on either speakers... BUT there are 2 red and white sockets (for left and right speakers) on the main bit of the stereo. Is there a cable that connects that to the laptop?

If your stereo has a line input you can get a lead to go from the head phone socket on your pc to the input of the stereo.
probabley 3.5mm phone jack to 2 us phono plugs
