Tom,

John is correct although if you wanted to try to drive the speakers with the 
stream amp, you'd need a stereo 1/8 inch plug, sometimes known as a stereo 
miniplug.  You'd have to wire that into both sets of leads.  But amplified 
computer speakers are plentiful and as John said, probably the best way to 
go.  However, let me also mention that when  I plug my stream into my little 
powered speakers, it drives them so hard that I can't get rid of the basic 
noise from the stream amplifier.  It may just be that the  stream and these 
particular speakers are a poor match. Lou
