Why are you trying to connect PC speakers to a receiver? Its a waste of money on the receiver. Get some stereo speakers. Even something used on craigslist will outperform computer speakers!

Um, what EXACT speakers are these?


I've never seen computer speakers that weren't self powered. (beyond basic $5 ones that played very low)

not the sub i have a sony active subwoofer

Your Creative speakers use RCA plugs and are designed for very low power levels. You'd need to cut the RCA plug off and strip the wire just to get it to fit in your Onkyo, but I don't recommend that. They will not sound good and you will probably damage them.

Why are you determined to use the Creative speakers? If you already have a powered sub just get some real speakers, don't use computer speakers. Even these would outperform the creative speakers.

Now that we know what you have. You have a system that was powered by the subwoofer. Apparently that subwoofer died?


Anyway, the biggest issue will be what ohm load these are. More than likely they are 3ohm. That in and of itself isn't a big concern. 6 watts(more like these will handle 10) is much louder than you expect. But then, we don't know how inefficient these are.


Yes you can use them, but don't be surprised if one of them blows one day and all of a sudden sends the receiver into protection mode.
