Introduction: USB Powered Speakers

You can use USB for everything! I have these speakers but I lost the adapter. I read some things about USB powering and I started to make an USB adapter for my speakers and it worked!


Step 1: Materials

- Speakers with a plug showed on the picture
- A pair of scissors, a knife or anything to strip the wire (even your naisl will work)
- Usb wire, doesn't matter what kind but it must have a male plug.
- Connecting brock.

Step 2: Preparing the Wires

- Cut the a USB wire in half. (length doesn't matter, take the piece with the male plug on it)
- Strip off the isolation.
- Strip off some isolation the BLACK or BROWN and RED WIRES. On the photo you see which two i mean.
- Tape the 2 remaining wires to the big wire (See pic).

- Take off the adapter jack which is attached to the speaker set. (length doesn't matter)
- Strip off the isolation.
- Strip off the isloation from the two wires inside.


Step 3: Unite the Wires and Finishing

- You can twist the black wire from the speaker set with the black or brown on from the usb cable and the same with the red ones...

OR

- You can use a connection brick like I did shown in the picture.
- Take some black tape or something to make a clean finish around the connection.

Step 4: Enjoy the Sound

You did it!

You may hear some noise coming out of the boxes, this is caused by the little power a USB port gives.



TIP: Out of USB ports?? Use a USB adapter! (See pic)
