yes it's possible.
connect the sub to the subwoofer pre-out
speakers to the speaker terminals

and add 3 speakers - center and surrounds

OK, so the question you should ask him is: In a 2.1 system for the PC what powers the speakers and the subwoofer?

so what does the power connector do?

give a man a fish...

heh

as long as you keep the volume to a decent level it won't destroy your speakers.


when you buy separate you have a choice of the speakers you really like the sound of, compared to what's already packaged. for example you might prefer the sound of Wharfedale compared to Mordaunt-Short etc.

secondly those separate speakers are better constructed than the packaged HTiB speakers and tend to sound fuller ... with a properly specified AV receiver. Again there you have a choice of features to your liking

separate components also allow you to progressively upgrade your system - when a new BD player is released with better features, you just have to upgrade the player - and the other components can remain, instead of having to buy a whole new set.

But this is how I started - got a HTiB, then added a powered sub. next the HTiB unit was relegated to being a DVD player as I added an AVR. then the speakers were replaced - center first, then front LR and finally surround LR. then added a DVD player and sold off the HTiB set
