A: The RØDE SC4 is specifically designed to adapt a 3-pole (TRS) microphone plug to a 4-pole (TRRS) input, like those found on smartphones or USB sound adapters with headset jacks. It’s not suitable for outputting audio (like from PC speakers), and it doesn't support stereo speaker signals. This adapter is for microphones only, so it won’t work correctly for your intended use of connecting PC speakers to a 4-pole input.

A: Yes you can
