Enjoy full, natural sound from your desktop or laptop computer, or tablet, from just 2 speakers. Bring more life to your music, games and videos, with wide natural sound reproduced by exclusive TrueSpace® signal processing.
 

Can I extend the distance between speakers with an accessory cable?

I have the Companion 20 series multimedia system. There is a cable that connects the two speakers- it is hard wired into the right speaker and plugs into the left (main) speaker. Can I extend the distance between speakers with an accessory cable?

If it is a standard min-plug cable, there are extension cables available.

Does Insignia™ - USB-Powered Portable Speakers work for ipods and mac?

Does Insignia™ - USB-Powered Portable Speakers work for ipods and mac?
The mini plug would fit, but these speakers require a standard USB port for power. I don't believe Ipods have standard USB ports.

can't hook up to TV

Salesman sold this to hook up to my LG 24" TV to get more sound. But TV has no USB port or headphone jack. Is it possible to hook up?
These speakers require both USB, (for power), and mini plug, (for sound). connectors.

Valid Configurations?

OK having both a USB and a mini-plug confused me for a minute.

Are both of these configurations correct?

* Laptop with a CD player, USB port and a mini-jack - only the USB connection is required, both power and audio are fed through USB, can play CDs in the CD tray or any audio file on the hard drive. (or do you also have to connect the mini-plug?)

* Laptop with no CD player, and separate audio source (like a portable DVD player that also plays CDs) - use the USB connection to the laptop for power and the mini-plug connected to the headphone jack of the DVD player for audio.

Thanks...
The mini plug is for receiving the sound. The USB plug is for power to the speakers.

Work without a sound card?

The sound card on my computer is dead. Will this work without getting a new sound card?
I use it on a laptop. It just redirects the sound produced by the laptop to the external speakers instead of the built-in speakers. I believe if you don't have a sound card, you won't get sound from the speakers.
