can you use these on your home stereo system and not just on portable players?

Sure if your stereo system has a 3.5mm jack (a headphone jack) slot. However, if you plan on using this just for your home stereo system, I'd not recommend these. I'd rather buy a Bayerdynamics tesla series or Sennhieser HD series headphones. Those headphones come with all accessories because they are meant to be used as headphones for your home stereo system.

Yes they will. I have used them in my Samsung Galaxy cell phone and my Galaxy tablet. They will work with a home stereo device too. Beat of luck to you.

Yes. Anything with a 1/4" jack. Also, they can be used as headphones with your iPod or stereo.

Yeah...you need a REALLY good sound card to use these, and even then, it'd be better if you just stuck to using an A/V Receiver or something instead.

You can but you will need to run them through a power amp not a straight plug and play.

I do not believe so. They are designed to plug in to a computer using mini phono plugs. If your component stereo accepts those types of plugs it probably would work.

I don't see why not. They are great quality speakers. Still haven't had a chance to hook up my system but don't anticipate I will be disappointed.

Not really. Perhaps only if you connect your stereo receiver via RCA jacks, but even if so, you better not use your receiver and computer at same time or may be problems. If your looking for sharp quality sound I'd shop elsewhere, if you just want loud boombox sound, then maybe you'll like these.

you can use any speakers with them that play on normal stereos. anywhere from 4-16 ohms should work.

Sure, laptop, stereo receiver, portable disc player, PC, basically any stereo equipment with a 1/8 inch jack. If you have a stereo receiver with a 1/4" headphone jack you can still use these by getting a 1/8" to 1/4" adapter.

Yes they can. However, you will need a RCA stereo audio (male) to 3.5mm (female) adapter.

I love mine I use them daily.....I do not think they will convert mono to stereo.

Yes, they could be used, however they are better used as secondary speakers to fill out the sound in a surround sound system. They would be lacking for a stereo system as the primary speakers. I think a little tinny to be used for true stereo sound. Good luck.

I have mine playing through a Tv/stereo system so I don't know why you couldn't hook them to a computer !

Can't say. We only use them for CDs. Don't know why they wouldn't, but ????

No -- that would miss the whole reason for buying these -- wonderful room-filling sound. If you want headphones you would plug them directly into your player, instead of plugging these speakers into your player.

Hey, not unless you have a power amp and mixer. These are non-powered and have no built-in amplifier at all.
