I need a hand working out the most sensible way to sort my speaker setup out.
Mid-july (upon the release of conroe) i'll be basically buying myself a new computer. I do a bit of amateurish home music recording - and as such I have a nice pair of tascam monitors which I would like to be able to use with my computer setup. Seeing as im a student, I can't afford to shell-out a load of cash for a whole new set of speakers, it would put my budget all out of whack and I may as well make the most out of what i already have.
They use an XLR cable (on the end of the speaker) and phono on the other end (this normally goes into the mixer).
How can I connect the speakers to my computer?
Sound card with phono input? will any mere cable adapter do the job?
I'm pretty sure this can be done - people use phono for getting vinyl and stuff onto their computer don't they?
