Hello,
My computer screen only has a headphone output (3.5 mm jack) and I would like to connect speakers (also 3.5 mm jack) to it. However, apparently the 3.5 mm jacks are not the same between headphones and speakers.
Thank you for your help.

    Hello
    What type of 3.5mm jack output do you have on the PC
    Is it a combo output (headset + microphone)? If so, you will need a combo headset adapter to two separate 3.5mm jack outputs like this to use only the headset output with a jack/jack cable with three contacts
