What do you mean by lack of a headphone jack? If they're quarter-inch, then a quarter inch to 3.5 adaptor costs around ?2.50 for the absolutely ultimate all-metal construction gold plated version (ones with plastic exteriors cost about a third of that, but they fall apart if you so much as look at them wrong). If you want to use the speakers and headphones at the same time you can purchase a little box that plugs in to your computers audio ports and can then you can plug multiple output and input devices into the box, allowing you to change with a push of a button. Or you could just use a splitter and turn the speakers off when you don't want to use them.

I just looked them up and it seems they don't have a headphone out at all

TheFuriousWombat - what are they being hooked up to? Doesn't that have a headphone out?

KharBevNor:
Most speakers don't have a headphone out. That's what the amp is for.

Speaking of amps, I've currently just got this hooked up to my computer in my Halls of Residence and it is kicking.
