Looking at these monitors for computer speakers. Will I need any additional items?

The inputs on these are, one XLR and one 1/4", you will use one or the other, so you would need cabling to match that on one end and to match whatever the output is on your computer. Usually a 3.5mm trs to either two xlr or two 1/4" does the job. Such as a Hosa CMP-159 Stereo Breakout or a Hosa CYX-402M Stereo Breakout.

Depends on what kind of sound card. Laptop int. sound card I would say yes you need a card. External, or pci-e would be good.

No - in fact it's a great idea - just need to connect to the outputs of the computer. This is BEST done with an audio interface, hooked up to your USB or whatever, but you can also just run from the headphone output (not quite as perfect a sound, but good!) using adapter cables.

You will have to attach speakers to your computer. If your monitor doesn't have speakers, then no matter what cable you use, you will have to use the audio ports on your computer to attach speakers. For example, I currently just leave my headphones plugged into my computer.

These are not computer speakers. That means that they need an amplifier (such as a receiver) to be used with the computer.

Well, speakers are the custom choice, you need to know what do you like and how they should sound...I'm using Polk Audio Monitor 200.

The speakers are exactly as you described. However, very few monitors (if any), including high end monitors such as this one have decent speakers. You'll need to buy a dedicated speakers in order to achieve any level of bearable sound quality.

If I were you I would look for a good pair of PC speakers. Technically it is possible using an amp and converter cables. If you are using the computer as part of a music system setup then it maybe worth going this route.

Yes. If your computer has an audio output jack, the speakers will work. BUT remember they must be used with their included power adapter AND they only make sense if you intend to mount the under a compatible Dell monitor. If you don't have a Dell monitor, choose a different speaker for better sound quality.

These speakers have 1/4inch and XLR inputs so you will need to get a pair of speaker wires, I'll suggest a pair of from Stagg Twin Cable - Male XLR / Male RCA length of wire is up to you.

Speakers are decent and better than some TV's or other monitors that I've heard. I think they're just fine for basic use and good enough to replace a cheap 2.0 speaker set if you're trying to reclaim desk space. But, in comparison to the Logitech S120 speakers (a cheap 2.0 speaker set), the S120s do sound a bit better and seem to have more depth. So, it really depends on how much you use the speakers for. If you watch a lot of videos and listen to a lot of music using your computer, I would suspect you would still want something in addition to what the monitor has built-in.

No such thing as a stupid question,these are not what you need, these are very nice stereo receiver speakers, what you need will cost much less than these. These will not work for just hooking to your computer, not at all.

Probably not. Honestly these speakers are cheap. They only look good displayed thats all. Dont waste your money on this. Its cheap for a reason.

Yes,the monitor in question does have speakers.Of course they are next to better than nothing @ all.

No speakers with this monitor. You will need to use an external sound system.

If you already have speakers, get a receiver or amplifier. Amazon should have an assortment to browse.

Powered speakers will do. Audioengine for instance, are good. Check those out.

We recommend these monitors: Behringer Media 40USB Digital Monitor Speakers.

I would advise getting a small sound board and an interface and hook these up to them
