I have 3 onkyo speakers and a 2.1 computer speaker set. I am planning on buying a 5.1 receiver. Would i be able to use the 3 real speakers for front left front right and center, then use the computer speakers for the rear? I’m assuming i would have to cut the cable on the computer speakers to make them connectible. Is this correct? Thanks.

I am talking very, very basic stuff here. I change the sound preferences to line in and plug in an amp cable, then record with windows sound recorder. Still, what type of computer would be best for this? I’m thinking of various sound cards, handling capacity, which computers won’t be overloaded or damaged by having an 80 – 100 watt amp wired into them… things like that.
