How should (could) I do this?

Setting up new NLE system using the new VV3.0. I'd like to connect my older studio monitors to the computer, rather than use the cheap little speakers that came with it. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I am more of an audio person than video and I have a great 'souding' setup. I go straight out of my M-Audio Delta 1010 to a Mackie type of mixer and then into the Mackie HR824 powered speakers. Of course this an expensive setup ($1200 for the speakers alone). As for your setup, you'd need to come out of your soundcard (probably using some type of adapter 1/8 inch mini to RCA Left and Right) and then into an amplifier. You could even use a stereo system, which you'd then hook up to your speakers.

If you are just doing home/hobby movie and audio, this setup is fine. If you are planning to go 'to the next level' an upgrade to your sound card and speakers would be necessary.

Hope this helps.
