Today I 'scabbed' a HIFI system from a multiskip just for the speakers. Each speaker has 2 wires coming from it (+ and -). Is there a way I can connect them to my computer.
BTW - The speakers have NO power cord.

Here's how you do it:

1)Take a power drill and turn it on
2)Find the direct center of your Monitor
3)Push the drill into this spot
4)After througholy drilling through the Monitor, take two wires in each hand
5)Put one wire from each hand into the hole
6)Ejaculate into the hole
7)Take the remaining wires in your hands and connect them to your ear lobes
8)Jump out the nearest window, if there is none available, make one by smashing your head into the wall repeatedly
9)Once you have left the building, climb up the nearest telephone pole.
10)Bite down on the thickest wire you can find

Your speakers should now work perefectly. No need to thank me, just doin' my duty
.

Sorry no telephone poles in Aust.

But how can you do this with my speakers.

Dont drill into your monitor! :P You might get shocked to death by the capacitors! Get someone else to d it for you

I think you just got facked in the ass. (Metaphorically speaking.)

mickle, you cannot just connect speakers to your computer, the output from the computer is not powerful enough to drive the speakers. you would have to build or buy an amplifier circuit to poewr the speakers. You could connect the speakers how they are now and in theory have them work, but they would probably be so quiet you couldnt hear them without your head right next to them and no background noise in the room.

I'm not sure if it helps but you could maybe use the HiFi system you got as an amplifier if it supports an AUX-in (maybe with a 3.5mm to cinch or so). I actually did that when my pc speakers sucked too much. One day I got the idea to use the aux of my stereo and voilà, it worked. (I have niiice harman/kardon pc speakers now though)

if he robbed it of its speakers im guessing the rest of it is broken or he doesnt have it any more

actually i had a similar prediciment, except they were at a dump along with a semi-smashed radio. ive actualyl got it set up to my pc right now, and it's dead sexy. find something that uses this system as speakers(radio), take it apart. use the little black-red-black-red prong-eater thingy, along with the power supply and if it has it the earphone out thingy. blame, should work, mine does. i dont know any ofthe technical [IMAGE], my friend merv helped me with it....he's been gone for abou a month and a half without warning...

aha. I chopped up some headphones for the plug and attached one speaker to them and plugged it in my comp. IT WORKS. Semi loud though - normal volume.

I think you can buy like a volume kit which you can attach to it right??

yes...volume kits...

What are these splitters called?: I need one so I can bring 2 wires from 2 speakers (4 wires in total) to one headphone/speaker plug.

there should be three wires coming out of the headphone/speaker plug. one wire should be the ground, it should just be a bare wire without any insulation. there should also be a red one (right) and a white one (left).

take one wire from each speaker and connect it to the ground (so you have two wires connected to the ground wire). then take the other wire from each speaker and connect it to one of the other ones, so your left speaker would be connected one wire to the ground, the other to the white. the left speaker would have one wire connected to the ground, the other connected to the red.

edit: once you connect both speakers, your volume will be much lower.
