Can these speakers be configured to work with a Laptop and how... Thanks!

I would imagine they can as long as you have Bluetooth on ur laptop. Runs easily through my iPad and phone

As long as the laptop has a mini-jack for audio out, yes you can hook them up to a laptop.

Yes they work fine with a laptop. They have an inline microphone on the left ear cable. They do not have a volume control so you will need to use your laptop's volume control instead.

It MIGHT be possible to drive these speakers with a PC, but you will need a sound card with some pretty good power to do it. (FYI... I drive these with my Onkyo A/V receiver which has 135 W/channel AND my laptop can lug into the Onkyo.) It is not something I would suggest given that some pretty good speaker systems designed to plug into a PC are already out there.

Yes, no problem! You need an HDMI cable coming from the laptop to the adapter, a VGA cable from the adapter to thr projector, and you can try to plug your speakers either to the adapter - there's an audio jack in it - or to the laptop itself. Either way it should work.

Yes, through a integrated amplifier or receiver with sufficient wattage to power these speakers. The laptop by itself would have insufficient power.

it doesn't mater what OS you have! as long the computer has a 3.5 audio jack output it will work. I cut the mounting bracket and I used sticky tape under the monitors. I three of them and they sound great too. the on/off switch/volume is on the right side of the speaker.

Yes I can and do plug mine into a ASUS Laptop and they work very well, I use them with my HTC android phone as well and am equally satisfied. Might I highly recommend a LOGITECH-984-000193 (for tablet) or LOGITECH Z305 W/USB (for laptop) speaker for quality room filling sound. All sold on Amazon.

They can be used as both computer and bookshelf speakers. I use them for my computer. Yes, they can be hooked up directly to a computer. The power source and audio cable are included. They can also be hooked up to a receiver too. In short, these are pretty awesome speakers. Extraordinary sound quality, especially for the price.

Not sure I dont think so I have a set of these connected to a alienware laptop and they sound pretty good, they also look good sitting on the glass desk, easy to operate oh and also I use these speakers with my ipad mini and they great.

These speakers do not come with wires. To connect them to amplifier/receiver you'll need wires, which is usually the case with any stereo system. Regarding the computer - I'm afraid that a typical sound card of a computer/laptop will not supply enough current to make these speakers work.

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

You can hook this up to your laptop if it had an HDMI display port, AND you intend to use a VGA monitor. I had a micro HDMI port on mine so I had to use a micro HDMI-to-HDMI cable to connect my laptop to the unit. You will need a separate 3 mm male-to-audio cable to connect your laptop headphone jack to your speakers.

The plugged in speakers override the laptop speakers. As soon as you unplug them the laptop speakers will be in play. I had to adjust volume on the speakers via the laptop though. If there were a volume control on the speakers it would be so much easier.

One use for the pair and I haven't tried to power them indirectly with a usb adapter direct to an electrical outlet yet so don't know if that will work or not. Great sound for Small speakers and price and some cpu configs allow u to set them up as surround rear speakers if u ever get a better system down the road. My dell Inspiron i3000-3847 (bought via blind.com they Amazon for under $400 and as fast as a $2000.00 desktop) desktop set it up that way when I hooked my Bluetooth Sony soundbar and sub up and forgot to disconnect these. Very good vocal sound/treble for price but if u are a big music/movie buff u will want to upgrade and use these as ur backups like myself One use for the pair and I haven't tried to power them indirectly with a usb adapter direct to an electrical outlet yet so don't know if that will work or not.

This speaker system needs but two connections. You must plug into a 110 Volt AC receptacle and also plug into the earphone out connection on your laptop. The system will work very well for you but will not be as portable as your laptop is.

I use them with my laptop. The cord plugs into the side USB port. My laptop has 3 USB ports as do most desktop computers. You just plug them in and maybe adjust your sound settings and that's it.
