Because that would require me to put a power strip inside my cab.
I'm hoping to avoid that if possible.

I HIGHLY suggest Oscar's method, just make sure the speakers you get are stereo speakers, well I mean you can get a mono set of speakers, but it sounds much clearer when you have a stereo output. It hooks up exactly the same as a mono, but it's stereo ya know. Usually a stereo set of speakers is only 5 dollars more, I got my set that came w/ a subwoofer for $15.99. Cyber Acoustics at Fred Meyer, works like a charm.

I think everyone is missing the pont of my post. I intend to use the oscar controls method. The only difference is that I want to ditch the power brick and power them off of the PC power supply.
I just wanted to run my plan past a few more sets of eyes to see if there was anything I was overlooking. Ya know, maybe someone else had tried this before and found a problem with it that I didn't consider.
