Using a car amp for computer speakers help

[andyholling]

I blew the amp of my Logitech Z560. I wanted to use my cheap 300watt amp I had in my car. I know I need a headphone to RC cable converter. Thats all I know though. I dont know how to power it, or if I need to have remote wire for anything, or if it needs to be grounded. Can somebody please help me. Also be specific, maybe with pics because if you say I need a power supply of some sort, I will not know what that is. Thank you.

Getting something like what EricB posted would be way easier than tring to hook up your exsisting amp

ok

That thing is 30watts, One speaker alone has more than that, each of the 4 speakers are 53 watts and the sub is 188 watts.

Best bet would be to just get a new set of speaker's,That way it save's you all the time and hassle and will save you from a headache too if you accidentally fry your amp while trying to hook it up and that

trust me when I say those speaker arent 53 watts. thet are more like 10-15 watts and 25-30 on the sub. all computer speakers lie about their watts to sell more speakers.

you look at rms watt (continuous) to get a true rating
