okay

so the other day, one of my friends hooked up my computer speakers into the headphone jack on my receiver in order to listen to records (i don't have floor or bookshelf speakers) and we blared some tunes, which has almost killed my little computer speakers. They are fuzzy now when I listen to my music on my pc. Obviously I need new speakers, my question is-

can I just get some Bose bookshelf speakers or a set of Cerwin Vega floor speakers and somehow hook them up to my receiver and computer? Keep in my that my receiver is a Sherwood vacuum tube from the early 70s.

I can't live with bad speakers much longer.

yes, it's possible, through a myriad of adapters

a) what input does your receiver have?

radio shack is your friend. I'm sure they'd have what you need in terms of adapters. Got a pic of the receiver?

Or an AIO solution like this:

I'm guessing it's RCA due to age, so you need to go from 3.5" stereo to 2 RCA
