If you want earthshattering bass for you funk, you are going to have to go with a real amp and real speakers. Hooking up the computer is no problem; you just need a sufficiently long cord with a stereo jack on one end (the computer end) and RCA plugs on the other.

Just get a set of Klipsch 5.1s. They have the amp built in and are THX certified.
Click here for 500 watts of computer speaker power. If that's too much, you could always go with the
200 watt, 2.1 system.
I have a set of the older 4.1s that are 400 watts. They make my ears bleed.
Note: There are some reports of high failure rates, but I've had my 4.1s for 4 years now and haven't had a problem. If you hook yours up and think you may have a bum set (you hear crackling or a lot of noise) just return them and get a new set.
