Can you use them for speaker cable (power and audio)?

Are you trying to put this at the output of an amplifier? You may end up with a low impedance problem which can load down the output of an amplifier and cause things to get hot and burn up. Remember, this is a mono cable. You do not have "left & "right". Just "left mono" only, even though it's a "Y" split. If your amplifier wants to see 8 ohms (speaker) and you put 4 ohms instead (that is, two speakers wired in parallel), you can damage your amp.

If your speakers and your receiver both support banana plug connectors (they're usually black and red in color and require the connector to be pushed in) the cables will work just fine. You'll need two sets, one pair for each speaker.

I suppose you could in theory, but since these speakers have no internal power supply you'd need some form of amplification between the speakers and the pc. Not really the use they're intended for.

I used them for my JVC small speakers for my sound surround. Then I find something's wrong with the sound surround and it won't work. Mine are sitting in a corner by the JVC that doesn't work any longer.

They will connect to anything that has a compatible output speaker jack. But they are poorly constructed and unreliable for quality.

Yes, you can use banana plugs to connect to these speakers. This is how I have wired up my system.

They are just speakers. They don't currently have anything powering them. So the short answer is no. Maybe they could if you added a reciever and hooked your computer to that, but you'd be better off (and will save money) if you go with a powered set made for a computer.

Don't see why they wouldn't, the connector is an audio jack, you just have to have the speakers plugged into a power source

You could. However, probably not enough wattage to power additional speakers.

Not sure why you couldn't They have terminals on the back for stripped wire connection or banana plugs Only concern would be the speakers are rated at 130 watt

You can use powered speakers but MAKE SURE YOU USE THE UNPOWERED MAIN OUTPUTS. If you don't you could blow your speakers. The powered outputs are the speakon cable outputs on the back. On the top right if the board you will see main out left and right. Those outputs are unpowered and able to work with powered speakers. You are safe to run powered speakers out if any output except for the speakon cable outputs on the back. You will need 1/4 inch cable...not xlr.

I doubt this will be much help, but I own these and have never needed cables for them. Ever. If your computer has the necessary outlet you should be good to go for headphones, etc. My brother owned a set and I saw how nice his sounded and decided then I could really use a better sound speaker for my laptop - I wish they could work with my TV as well! I hope this helped you somewhat. I found these to work very well and they were a welcomed change. Hope you enjoy yours too!

they need to be connected to the speaker output on your power amp or receiver with the correct type of wire

Yes they can. The plug physically matches the PC jack. And I haven't found that they need an amplifier for anything yet. The PC should put out enough power for your uses.

Yes! Granted, they need to be powered by something, but you can just use a auxiliary cable to play audio through the speakers

Yes, as long as they are wired that way it should be no problem. I hooked up a 8 ohm speaker to test it and it seems to have plenty of power, especially if you are using them for background music.

These speakers need power. I have 120W per channel and they could take more. Dont skimp on power.
