If you have a 3.5mm headphone jack you can plug them in there.

Zm93 · Answer

Yes. I too have the older version MacBook Pro and run these from my home desk. A simple plug into the headphone port on the laptop and that's it. You won't be dissapointed.

they use the standard headphone type jack, don't see why they wouldn't work on any device with the jack. I even played my phone through them.

This will work with any system as long as you have a 3.5 mm audio out plug on your laptop.

AsusReview · Answer

These speakers have a standard male 3.5mm connection just like any headphones, etc.

So yes - these speakers will play wonderfully with a mac.

My girlfriends mac only enhances the sound that comes out of these things.

I think just about every computer uses the same 1/8" audio out jack. It's one of the very few things that are standard across brands. So I would be very surprised if it didn't fit. Some cell phones use the smaller 2.5mm plug but I've not seen it on a computer.

Anything with a regular audio out is able to run these speakers. You can run them off a phone, ipod, etc... ohh and power...

You can probably find an adapter @ Radio Shack or the like, but if I were you, I would find different speakers. Look @ the Boston Acoustic series, they were the best I could find, and most times their prices are reasonable. Be sure to check your mac first as well if it is analog or digital. If it's digital, BA (Boston Acoustic), make the best imo. If it's just a presentation set up, and not something of major music value, Logitech, isn't bad and is affordable. The Klipsch, I posted a review on the Best Buy site if you want to read it. Just be sure to check if you have a digital sound card in your computer, or analog. If it's analog, look for analog only speakers, or be sure to get a DAW, (Digital to Analog connecter), then most of the speakers will work ok on either platform, apple or windows. The first I recommend will work for you no problem. The 2nd is good. Hope this helps.

I would recommend:
