    Hey, not sure where to post this so i'll try here... What we have at home is a set of Creative speakers, 5.1 things, they're the business hooked up to the PC, but they're kinda wasted, cos the PC is in a tiny room, all the speakers are stacked up together...

    Is there a way of hooking those type of speakers up to my TV? We have a nice big widescreen JVC telly in our sitting room, nice big room, the speakers would work wonders there...

    I have a feeling that it's not possible, but i said i'd check anyways...

    It's not something I've ever done but if the TV has a headphone socket you could use that. BTW, big rooms need big speakers but they' could be better than the TV speakers so worth a shot.

    Ya but the speakers have 3 cable things that plug into the PC... Hmm, might try it out some time in future...

    be careful hooking spekears up to a headphone socket. even though the socket is the same, a normal 3.5mm line out is not amplified while a headphone socekt is so that it can drive the heaqdphones. If you turn up the tv too much you could blow the speakers, or more likely get terribly distored sound as you exceed the input range of the speakers
