Can the Polk Audio Blackstone TL-3 center channel speaker be hooked to a computer in combination with Bose bookshelf speakers

"Blow up" LOL. As long as your computer has a "center channel out" or are you attempting to make surround out of a computer that has no surround output?

My system is also using Bose speakers in combo with my polk speakers with my surround sound reciever. But tying with a computer I don't know what will happen, I think it would be ok, but then again maybe it will explode too. ;)

I suppose, if you find compatible speakers with similar connections. You'd have to see what you're working with to find which ones will work.

Yes! Use the USB connection to hook up to your computer, and connect a set of powered speakers to the RCA outputs on back of unit.

Good speaker cables will connect to your receiver. I find the sound of these Bose 301 speakers outstanding. They fill the room with wonderful sound. I do not know about the computer to receiver hookup. Try the "HELP" of the receiver manufacture.

I have a pair of Bose computer speakers that can attach to the Panasonic SC-HC27 via the earphone jack.

I don't know much about how the Bose speakers work, but I couldn't see why not. It is pretty small so I would say yes.

Sorry am unfamiliar. This center speaker is ample for my needs and cost was low

This should work for that. I have mine set up to work with an old pair of B&O; speakers, and it sounds great! It's not a super powerful amp, so it won't get all that loud, but it puts out good sound. It has both USB and RCA inputs so you can hook it up to a computer AND another external input.

These speakers just have connectors to hook up stereo wire from an amplifier to the speakers. They are not designed for use with a computer - It may be possible to do so, however, but you would probably need to have an amplifier between the speakers and the computer.

Can I hook this up directly to computer speakers (e.g. the kind that have a 3.5mm plug and a built-in amplifier)?

Possibly, if the computer speakers are powered, and the computer speakers have a 1/4" input, or if you have a 3.5mm to 1/4" adapter. Then I think it would work.

I'm sure you can utilize any brand of speakers that your budget will permit. I opted for the Polk Audio - Blackstone TL1600 5.1-Channel Home Theater Speaker System. Offers a powerful subwoofer, 4 satellite speakers and a center channel speaker needed to complete the surround sound effect. These speakers combined with the subwoofer put out plenty of quality sound. I purchased the speakers at Best Buy. JBL offers a variety of speakers as well, but for my budget and space requirements, I felt that Polk Audio offered me the best selection. Hope this helps.

Echosyn, I can't say for certain, but I don't see why not. I connected a cable from a Toshiba laptop via the earphone out jack (1/8" on one end and RCA plugs on the other end) into the amp. The amp powers Bose speakers which are connected to the amp by metal screws. Hope that helps you.

I would think so since it has separate connections for each channel. But if you only hooked up the center channel connections I doubt you will be taking advantage of all the speakers.

Yes. I use this amp to power a pair of Infinity Optimus P163 speakers, which are honestly a little big for bookshelf speakers, but the amp works fine at normal listening volumes. If you like your music loud and need to drive bigger speakers you should consider a more conventional amplifier with more power, but for most bookshelf speakers this amp works. You will also need speaker wire to hook them up. This amp and most speakers accept the banana plug wire ends, which I recommend as well.

Not without some kind of amplifier. Computer speaker outputs deliver an unamplified signal. These are really good speakers, but not the best choice for what you're doing. Bose does make computer speakers that would be worth checking into. I can't recall the number, but they shouldn't be too hard to find online. Eddie
