2.5mm to 3.5mm mini jack adaptor for mac speakers

uccelli

Hi there,

Can anyone help me??
I recently bought some pro-speakers for an apple mac computer from a friend for my ibook G4. Much to my dissapointment the audio jack does not fit. It is a mini jack plug on the speakers(2.5mm) and I have a head phone socket (3.5mm) on my laptop.
Question is: is there an adaptor for mac speakers to allow the pro-speakers to work on my laptop?

I hope someone can help me.

THanks

If you check out ebay.ie you should be able to pick one up fairly handy. (e.g. here)

I had a look earlier on ebay, i wasnt sure if they where compatible with a mac.. is it a standard fitting?

cheers.

I'm not familiar with the Mac so I couldn't say for sure, but I would have thought all 3.5mm headphone sockets are a standard fit. You may want to look into getting a gold-plated connection to get the best from the pro-speakers.

But worse case you'll be looking at a loss of about €3 for the bog standard adapter.
