Will they work well with the adapter plugged into the back of the computer, or is it better to have line of sight?

I have not tried to connect them to my laptop. The speakers come with a USB blue tooth adapter that I used on my older laptop and it worked great.

Some monitors have a round power plus on the bottom (or back) of the unit.You don't need an adapter if the monitor has the round plug.

It all depends on the connector type, and the polarity of the adapter vs the one on the device. If the shoe fits, as they say, just don't turn the brightness and volume up all the way or you may burn out your adapters no matter which one you use. Half a volt usually doesn't matter except to laptops themselves, other devices aren't as sensitive as some will still work at lower voltages, but barely in some cases.

I've actually used them while playing computer games while my roommate watched football on TV just a few feet away (4-5'). They do an okay job at that. I could really only hear the TV when my game was quiet. They'll probably work pretty well as long as you sit a little farther away than I did.

I haven't tried them with my computer. They plug into an "audio out" connector, same size as the headset plug on your computer. In theory, this should work.

You should not. The adapter has a 15 pin (female) connector on one end. If you are connecting to a monitor... just make sure your cable is 15 pin male...

The USB cord to the port is about 3 feet and there is enough between the speakers to get around the monitor. They sound very good to me. I have extended my USB ports with a hub that is near the monitor so I wouldn't have to be concerned about reaching the back or front of the computer. Now is you are going to use these with a laptop, you don't have the same issue. Hope this helped you. Tom Savarese, America's #1 Disco DJ.

YES! I use them when watching blu-rays on my HP laptop on long flights. I had no problems pairing them at all!

Yes work perfect. Just reminder as is common mistake.... You have to have power cable plugged in the adapter to make it work.

would be nice is the used USB power, then you could plug them in to a usb jack on your monitor

Yes, even having my laptop monitor being very close never had an issue. These monitor speakers are build to Sheild any interference. I would suggest any of the krk speakers.

No. They are designed to receive signal from an infrared transmitter, like a car DVD player. They will not work with your computer.

All the cords are included with the monitors and will allow for connection with the headphone jack on most laptops or the audio out jack on desktops. In the rare instance that you would need to adapt to an RCA audio (red/white) connection, there are inexpensive adapters available for that purpose.

I use mine to watch tv shows on my laptop computer, and they work wonderfully. The block out sound that is around very well.

This would depend on your wifi wireless service. I have one 6 ft from monitor and the other about 20 ft. away and they work fine.

On my understanding, the computer will know where the item is connected. Weather it be a USB port, or the Y-USB hub. I have different connections for different devices, and they all work just fine the way there are connection. So the only thing I can say is it's up to you as to haw they are connected.

We had a system it plugged in to, but I have seen adapters that you can plug into a computer with. However, I will forewarn you the one I got had HORRIBLE quality. It would alternate between a muffled sound and whisper quiet. No amount of adjusting helped.
