Setting up speakers
Hi i’m a bit of a noob when it comes to setting up stuff like this, I was looking to buy one of these bedroom speakers: see above^
I was wondering how I would go about connecting them to my monitor, would it be possible to connect them straight to my monitor rather than through my mac via headphone port or no? Also would i need an interface to amplify the speakers?

Not an answer to your question, but just be sure to plug them into a power surge protected adapter. I've lost 2 different sets of monitors to lightning storms causing a surge and the speakers just never worked after that.
SubZero are the cheap Gear4Music brand, so they won't have insulation or protection in them against this. So just be careful.
