You plugged a car speaker into your zenith allegro sound system through the headphone jack and you think you shorted the system out can you fix the sound system?
The headphone jack is actually wired with resistors so the headphones don't get the full amplifiers output. The only way you can fry the speaker system, is to send voltage back through the headphone jack and/or crank the volume all the way up with a short or no speaker connection. Check speaker fuses!

Only 3rd generation and newer iPod touches have the speakers.
How do you hook up a speaker from a headphone outlet on a phonograph?
The headphone outlet will not have enough power to make a speaker work unless it is self powered. This means the speaker has anamplifier inside the case.
Can you use ordinary headphone on PC?
Yes, as long as your computer is equipped with an analog headphone or speaker jack (most are).
What allows us to hear sounds from a computer?
AS the board and CPU execute programs, they send associated sound signals to the sound card on your computer. The sound card converts the digital signal into analogue and sends that signal to the external port(s). Assuming a speaker is plugged in, the signal is carried over wire to the speaker (or headphone) speaker, where a electromagnet is used to move the speaker cone. This produces sound which can be heard.
What identifies the speaker Jack on the CPU?

What does a headphone jack do?

How do you add a headphone socket to the speaker wires so that the speakers disconnect when the headphones are plugged in?
== Each speaker is driven by a pair of wires coming from the amplifier. One wire is "live" and the other wire is "ground". There are two little contacts in the headphone socket which connect the amplifier's live outputs to the headphones when the headphone jack is inserted. When the headphone jack is removed the contacts reconnect the outputs to the speakers. So it's important to connect the "live" side of each of the speaker lines to these switches - not the "ground" wires which should stay connected to the speakers! Because headphones usually have a much higher impedance than speakers the headphones will draw a lot less power from the amplifier but that won't do it any harm so there is no need to add any extra resistors in the leads. == Connect it to one side of the speaker line. You'd better have a resistor in the lead going to the earphone.
