Connecting laptop to amp and speakers

[ramage123]

I am trying to connect my laptop through my amp to output from my speakers, I have bought the necessary cable, but I can not get the sound to switch from my laptop speakers to the external speakers. Is there anything else that needs to change or should it switch autonatically when I connect the cable at the headphone socjket on my laptop.

Use the Headphone rather than the Line Out and it should take care of it.
