    Hi,
    I am trying to connect speakers that I usually use for my mp3 (they
    have only the green jack) for my TV so I bought a cable that links the
    green thing of the speakers to a white and red plug for the TV but it
    does not work. Any idea what I missed?
    I have an old style non HD non flat screen TV
    the cable I used is http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000I23TTE
    and the speakers are :

    Thanks a lot,
    -Sophie

    Did you turn on the external Speaker output on your TV?

    On some TVs you have to explicitly turn it on since it turns the internal speakers OFF.

    Look for a setting that looks something like:

    AUDIO OUTPUT = INT/EXT
