How to connect laptop to powered monitors
Hi I got a pair of jbl 305p mkii on the way and i want to connect them to my laptop . Was told to get 3.5mm to 1/4 inch rca X 2 but I could not find them . Instead I got 3.5mm to rca x2 and 1/4 inch rca adapters . Would they work? Sorry if this sounds noob but I am very new to this hobby .- Yh173088
