    u had a question and you asked it, that isnt being ignorant. anyway, i need some more info. does your tv have an audio out plug? and does each speaker have its own separate plug?

    Yes on the back of my TV I have a Right & Left audio output... My computer speakers are BOSTON BA635 ... the speakers have the main BOOSTER I think is what it is called then the speakers each have a cord that comes from it and then into the back of my computer?

    Did that answer your question or did I go around the world and not answer!???

    Thanks

    im assuming that the cord that plugs into your computer is a 3.5mm cord. so u could buy an adapter to convert the end of the plug to two rca ports. then u could run standard audio wires from the tv to the cord from the speakers. the only problem would be havin to unplug the speakers from the tv and reconnect it to the computer if u wanted sound from the computer. if you go to a place like Radio Shack and explain the cord sizes you have they should be able to tell u exactly what u need.
