In my room I have 2 mordaunt short floor speakers and 2 warfdale speakers all plugged up into my sherwood amp.

Is it possible to wire my PC up to my amp, so I can play music off my PC through my speakers?  Do I need special adapters to go from my PC to my amp, and any special software?

That depends on your soundcard. Mine came with a Y Adapter from Line Out to Chinch (Think that's what they are called)

If you go into Dixons you can get a Jack - AUX cable for about £10.

I use it for my pc. I will post a picture of what it looks like in a sec

That is what I call Y cable  but yeah, you just put that into your amp (AUX or something) and not sure about prices in UK but I buy such a cable (standard quality) for $3

The only thing is to watch the length from the PC to the AUX part of the amp. The longer it is the more you can get interference and a crap sound.

I connect my PC into my 24-8 channel mixing desk, equalizers, effects racks and slave amps and get all running in surround sound. Its fantastic when playing top games as well as getting on the one that should be obeyed nerves (wife) LOL.

Always remember quality is before volume.
