I got the Radio Shack 1/8" mono to 1/8" stereo to plug in a pair of Sony
amplified speakers originally sold to plug into a Walkman.  They can be 
switched between amplified and direct connect.  Either way, there's no
stereo image, of course, and with they spaced on either side of the SE,
it sounds like the sound is coming from the SE!  The real difference is
in the tone quality when amplified!  Much fuller bass and less tinniness.
Direct connect doesn't really sound much better, though. No problems with
either hardware.
