[nfbcs] computer speakers with built-in headphone jack

[qubit]

Hi all -- My speakers have a jack in front, but I am the only person awake 
and don't know the company that makes them.  I have had them for some time 
and really like them. They have good sound that boosts up to where I can use 
them in front of a classroom of noisy children and they can hear them.
I think I paid just under $100 for them.
When someone else is awake I'll ask what they are.
I should have paid attention, but at the time I bought them I didn't care 
what they were as long as they were louder than my laptop's speaker.

Note, one reason it is probably better to use a switch on the jack on the 
computer is that when the power goes out, the computer keeps running on 
batteries but the speakers cut out.  If headphones are plugged into the 
speakers I am afraid they might go out as well.  (I just had a power outage 
recently. and had to unplug my speakers to hear jaws.)

Happy listening.

Jim:

The Bose speakers do have a headphone jack in the front.

Curtis,

Do these have a headphone jack?  It didn't look like it from the
amazon description I read, I'm wondering if I'm looking at the wrong
speakers.

Thanks,

Jim
