SS-B3000 PC compatible? Can these speakers be hooked up to a PC via a 3.5mm jack?

No... That's a line-level output and these are not powered speakers. You could buy a stereo or surround-sound receiver to power these speakers and use a stereo 3.5mm plug to dual RCA plug adapter cable (or cables for surround sound) to connect the sound card to a line level input on the receiver (CD, DVD, tape, etc...).

These are not self-amplified computer speakers. These are passive speakers that would connect to an amplifier or receiver. So you would need an amp to connect them to a PC.

No, they connect with an RCA jack to the headphone or speaker output jack on the PC.

Not out of the box. They will require a conversion from either HDMI or Optical audio (toslink) to 3.5mm stereo jack (headphone jack)

You can use them with your computer but you need a small amp as the Dayton speakers are not powered. Amazon has several amps that would work well.

Not directly. You would need a powered external amplifier with a digital input (from the PC) and analog output (to the speakers). Most modern receivers provide these interfaces. So, if your PC happens to be nearby your home receiver, you may be able to play your PC audio with these speakers. You'd need to route your PC's digital audio output to your receivers audio input. Then connect the speakers to the appropriate analog output channels on the receiver.

These speakers just have connectors to hook up stereo wire from an amplifier to the speakers. They are not designed for use with a computer - It may be possible to do so, however, but you would probably need to have an amplifier between the speakers and the computer.

These speakers are meant for use with a stereo receiver, so unless you have a receiver connected to your PC, probably not.

I don't think they were meant for it, but I do know there is speaker wire that goes into a 3.5mm that the klipsch pro series uses, i don't know if you could use that to plug right in or not, and that would depend on how many connections your computer has

only through an amp / computer or mixer. There is no way to do it directly. These are not powered speakers - you need to patch into them through a power source.

Sorry I'm not able to help. My son got the speakers and he's not an expert on The subject.

You will need an amplifier and an audio box to connect the amp to your PC. These speakers become more expensive than sticker price when amplifier, audio box, and cords are considered. I would NOT purchase these. Spend the extra money now on a pair of good self-powered speakers and an audio box and thats all you'll need. Spend the money on that stuff now or spend MORE money on these speakers as you go.

I don't see any way to connect headphones to these speakers. The speakers plug into the headphone jack on the pc (along with a usb port). Hope this helps.

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.

These speakers need an amplifier/receiver with a decent amount of power. Mine are hooked up to a 65W RMS per channel receiver. You can then go to Radio Shack and buy an adaptor cable that has a headphone jack on one (for the computer headphone jack) end and the right and left channel RCA connectors on the other to connect your computer to the amplifier audio input. The cable will run you around $5.

Yes. .....you will need a power amplifier. ...they are not powered speakers.
