    I'm living in a dorm and i want a decent stereo system for my dorm that gives decent bass and sound. I want to get these.

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16836121006&Tpk=x-540

    But i have a Macbook Pro. Would setting up the speakers to this macbook pro work? Would it have enough power to work with these?
    Also would it kill the battery tremendously?

    Or if anyone knows any ways i can get some decent sound in my dorm for under 80 dollars? Thanks

    You wont get 5.1 to those speakers. Plus they arent the best sounding. No they will not kill the battery anymore than it would listening to music through headphones.

    Try and get a better 2.1 speaker system. It will sound better.
