Question about speaker plugs

Post by rdjdnd »

I have some surround speakers that plug into a sub woofer that isn't mine. Is there some adapter that I could use to change the plug into something that would hook into my sound card?

Does that make sense?

Thanks

No it really doesn't make much sense.

You have 4-5 speakers that originally connected to a subwoofer that you do not have correct? If so your problem most likely will not be how to plug them into the sound card but what is going to drive these speakers. Most likely the subwoofer contained the amp that gave the surround speakers their power, without it your dead before you start.
