Help with audio

[arcaderayfreeman11]

the speakers are blown in my TV and I'm not sure what the Two Jacks that I have are for one of them looks like it's for headphones but I plug in speakers are headphones and they don't work. The other says digital audio output but it looks just like an RCA plug. When I search on line digital audio output it shows a totally different plug like my TV don't even exist the way it's set up. I have a pair of computer speakers I'd like to use with my TV but I have no idea how to convert this RCA looking Jack into a speaker wire input. I have a picture but I can't figure out how to upload it. But it just looks like a standard RCA jack a slightly lighter red tint then the one for the standard RCA in

So far the best I've found that I can pick up from Walmart.com is these 2 items

Sorry for the late reply was still looking around.

Which little box do you want exactly, didnt you get a converter already?

What makes it hard is you still need coax to rca converter. To use your speakers with it you need those additional cables because these speakers use 3.5mm jacks.


Which speakers do you have? Would be easier for me if i can have a look at them and get a picture in my mind.

I guess this is probably the cheapest one but can't pick up at Walmart.

You've never heard of computer speakers? I've owned like a hundred different kinds over the years and they've all been the same. They hook up with a little green Jack that you put in the back of your computer it's a 3.5 mm Jack. Anyway the last link is what I need but I'll probably go with the two above since I can return those to Walmart if there's something wrong with them

Just in case you want to know what computer speakers look like I'll link you to the exact ones that I own.

This is what you said before "I went to Walmart and I bought 3 things a converter box" i was wondering what converter box you bought.

We've already linked you coax converters and explained what you need to run pc speakers with 3.5mm jacks.

Or spend more on pc speakers or sound bar that already has coax input.

 

[arcaderayfreeman11]

the converter box look just like this except for it was a different brand that cost me $20

Now that i see what speakers you're using, you don't want this cord you posted, https/www.walmart.com/ip/6-Inch-3-5mm-Stereo-Female-to-2-RCA-Male-Cable-Gold-Plated-Red-White/467403390

You want this https/www.walmart.com/ip/ONN-3-5-MM-Aux-to-RCA-Stereo-Cable-Audio-Y-Adapter-Cable-4-Feet/829969025?athcpid=829969025&athpgid=athenaItemPage&athcgid=null&athznid=PWBAB&athieid=v0&athstid=CS002&athguid=466001f5-9acf80c2-f9acbe1d55a7e&athena=true

That will plug straight into your speaker 3.5mm jack from converter. Any coax to rca converter will do

I appreciate all your help but for the most part I ended up figuring it out on my own after looking up the manual for my TV and then Googling the audio port that I needed to use I finally figured out that I just needed a standard RCA cable hooked up to a converter. From there I found a converter at Walmart and spent $35 to test out my theory. But the Box itself only cost about $10 and you can get ones with the 3.5 plug built right in. I understand that you were giving me the correct information this whole time but I did not understand what you were talking about and it was kind of useless to me but thank you for trying to help

 

[arcaderayfreeman11]

What you just posted is totally incorrect In fact I bought that item and I knew that it wouldn't work when I was at Walmart and that's why I had to buy a third item because you cannot plug the male end of my computer speakers into the male end of the cord that you just link me to you can't go male to male.

You've given me all kinds of misinformation and most of it has confused me. But I appreciate the effort thank you

Sorry no, got mixed up thinking the speaker input was the input from the computer, the link you posted is the cable you need.

https/www.walmart.com/ip/6-Inch-3-5mm-Stereo-Female-to-2-RCA-Male-Cable-Gold-Plated-Red-White/467403390

Got confused with speakers that don't have a 3.5mm wire already attached.

All kinds of misinformation? Not at all, just the last part, im sorry. Despite screwing up just now, information prior is correct regarding on information we had at the time. We did provide you with adequate solutions and frankly, sorry, you did confuse things as well.
