For connecting to TV's and stuff, I use a Radio Shack 273-1374
isolation transformer. One for each speaker lead. If your into
doing some wiring, The response will be good feeding into
a line level input of computer or other device.
Carefull wiring will be needed soldering the fine leads. The speaker
connections go to one set of transformer leads, and the other set of
leads will feed into the line level of the sound card. This
gets a little tricky cutting the cables apart for proper connections, but
if your willing we can continue with the job.
