I just bought a GE 2.1 speaker system from Jasco products and it will not play when coneected to my dell laptop. I have everything plugged in right.I used the laptop with a different system and it works just fine. With this one I can hear noise coming from the speakers but no music. And when subwoofer is turned all the way up I can hear radio in the background. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Answer
One thing you might want to check is the sound card option related to the digital audio output. Not sure what kind of speaker system you used before but try changing that option and see what you get. Also make sure the speakers are plugged into the speaker output. On my Dell, the mic input is adjacent to the speaker jack and is also the same size and I have gotten them mixed up before.

Is it Ok to join the output of guitar effect to normal speaker system?

I bought an electric guitar and guitar effect.
I already have an old guitar amp which is not good now.
I am thinking to join the output of guitar effect to normal speaker system for live show or to computer for recording instead of guitar amp.
I am just worried if it will harm my speaker system or computer.

Answer
Nyein Z,

It won't harm either the speaker system or the computer as long as the output is not from a guitar amp. The speaker out from an amp can blow up lots of stuff. Don't do that.

Plugging into a 'speaker system' like a stereo from the effects box should be fine, and same into the computer. Turn everything DOWN before you start. It shouldn't hurt anything.

Then the only challenge is making it sound good. Try stuff and I bet you'll find a good sound.

Good Luck,
John
