Connecting your laptop to a stereo system can be useful for a variety of applications. You may want to play a game or video through your home cinema system or play music stored on your laptop through your stereo’s speakers. Although laptops have a headphone output that can connect to your stereo system, this is typically a 3.5 mm jack rather than the RCA phono connectors that are standard for a stereo’s input. This difference in connections can be overcome by using conversion cable equipped with a 3.5 mm stereo jack on one end and twin RCA jacks on the other. Tips Writer Bio
