Default Hooking amp and speakers up to a laptop

Where can I find cheap (not professional dj quality) equipment to hook up speakers and an amp to my laptop.

Looking for some better quality music for parties and stuff

All you really need is a cable with RCAs on one end and a connector to hook into your speaker jack on the laptop. Just connect like any other component.

All you need is a 1/8th male headphone jack to stereo RCA outputs. It's like 12 dollars at radio shack...

^^^repost....

Source level is very low so any standard headpone jack to RCA will be fine. They probably have them at Wal-Mart....

what type of laptop do you have? if it's a mac, you actually have an optical out which will produce much better sound for you.
