will this work and give sound to my computer?

As long as your computer accepts toslink interface and you have speakers hooked into your computer it should work! Toslink optical connections are audio signals only however, it has nothing to do with video signals!

Pretty sure you can just use an RCA to 1/8" adapter to connect sound coming from a computer. Never tried it but since the E8's have RCA out, this solution seems reasonable.

Sure, your sound card would have to have a optical out, then you would purchase a toslink cable and connect it to the optical in on the receiver, then you have to make sure on your pc that it is set to output sound via optical out.....if ur using a mac it should be easy.

Yes. It works with anything sound wise from your laptop or whatever it's connected to.

i'm running ubuntu and it works perfectly... nothing special needed to work... you may need to go to sound settings to make sure it's your default audio output.

The answer is MAYBE. It depends on what sort of inputs your computer has on the sound card and/or motherboard.

yes, if your computer has a sound card (which means it has a headphone/speaker jack). If your computer was made in the last 10 years it is very likely going to have a way to connect external speakers. only very early computers didn't automatically allow for a speaker jack.

It seems to work fine but t was only the lap top speakers that were out not the sound card. Check your device manager to see if the sound card is functioning if the computer says it is. Check your sound systems. Its easy to replace a sound card in a lap top. And worth it.

Don't know, but I don't think this is relevant. Do not forget, this is an interface NOT an external soundcard. If you run Windows, get a USB soundcard instead and use free VSTi's for the desired sound.

It will work with absolutely anything that has a 3.5mm audio port (the green one on your computer). So, yes, it will if your computer speakers and your computer have the audio port.

It could as long as your computer has a 3.5mm input mic jack. And your audio output source has a RCA style output with L(white) and R(red) rca. Also you will need software that can support what you are trying to do. Hope this was helpful. Good Luck!

I would think so, but depends on whether your computer can output audio through MiniDisplayPort. Try to configure your computer's audio output (Control Panel, Sound), run a test directly from there. Try to play video on the computer (e.g., youtube), see if you're getting picture but no sound, even with all the appropriate controls set correctly.

as long as you have a pci slot you will get sound in win 7. i am not into quality sounds so all i needed was a sound card to play the windows tones or a music cd. hope this helps

With these speakers you will need another amp. You could hook some computer speakers up to it and it will work though.

Mine works fine. Does your computer support audio output through display port?

Yes you will need a audio cable also it is a VGA cable and will not support sound. If your computer has a HDMI port you could get a HDMI cable and it would have picture and sound in one cable.

You need to plug speakers into any CPU and then you will have sound. Thanks, Computer World
