I inherited some speakers and a amplifier as well as a mixboard but I have no idea how to wire them to my computer, I regret not taking a picture of how it was wired before I took it apart :'(.

Here are my speakers:

What chu got there in the pic for an amp is two channel. or one channel bridged. 2 speakers or 1 speaker. If you want a sub there may be an option on that switchboard for sub out. If that's the case you could get a sub woofer with an internal or external amp and connect it via the switchboard....

Looks to me like you have a two channel amp for 2 speakers and you have 3 speakers... the math does not really add up.

Looks like your USB port (on the back of the amp) will connect to your mobo sound-card perhaps? Here's a link that explains what an hiqnet USB port is: http://hiqnet.harmanpro.com/about Looks like it "should" work... As stated by jrrdmchls, that amp is a 2-channel only.

What your budget and what size room are you looking to fill?
