So I have a laptop and a set of simple speakers that have an aux cord for sound and a USB cord for power and an idea occurred to me. Is there a way to use both laptop speakers and individual speakers in a surround setup. I have found out how to use them in the same time but its not quite an immersing experience. Note that I'm no audio professional nor audiophile. Thanks.

update

 

I fond an old home theatre system and I don't know how to connect it to my laptop. it has a red and a white rca audio in connectors and I have a 3.5mm to red, white and yellow rca adapter. connecting it that way results in front left, surround left and subwoofer working when I play something  on my laptop.however when I press test sound button all of them work. btw the model of the home theatre system is Samsung ht-p10.also sorry for the bad pics

You just need an audio RCA to 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo cable (just the Red/White plugs), plugged in like the pic The yellow connection in the Red/White/Yellow RCA combination cable is just for video, don't bother with that cable as it sounds like the poles on the plug aren't setup like a traditional headphone jack.
