My husband purchased an adapter to go from our pc to the home stereo system, I know it wasn't very expensive, I believe it only cost us 10.00 maybe a little less. Is that what you were talking about?

well I was told I could do it without buying any adapters or anything like that..some guy even gave me these long instructions on what to do but i really don't want to do all that..another guy gave me the name of a site but the site looks so complicated...

What you need to do is plug one of the wire's that are like for a dvd player/game unit thing that has the 2 or 3 plugs on it, the red,yellow,and white into the stereo, making sure that it is the audio wire connector, hook it to the aux. area of your home stereo, then plug the one audio wire into the outlet on your pc. That should be all that is needed. My husband only baught the adapter because at the time, he didn't realize that he would not need to use it:)

computer jacks - computer jacks
You can buy an adapter for the speaker jack if its too large or to little or you can buy a large multimedia made for computers

You can either buy a pair of "powered speakers" These are speaker that you would plug into the computer, and they will also have to be plugged into another electrical support. Or you can buy some nice BIG BIG speaker and an amp. The amp plugs into the wall, your big speakers plug into the amp. Then you will need an RCA to 1/8 jack plug the 1/8 side into the pc, and the rca inputs into the amp. And then you can rock out and have the neighbors call the cops on you :)
